Electric Lighter, USB-C Mini & Portable for Outdoor or Emergency Travel Companion Compatible with Samsung iPhone Google Pixel, Moto - Flameless Windproof, Auto Shutoff, Type-C

This is such a cool gadget for those who smoke! I mainly got it for those who smoke in windy climates and can’t light their smoking product. It connects to usb-c phones easiest but you can use an adaptor if you have one to connect to a lightning plug. I used my friend’s android phone to try it out. I’ll admit, I was a little nervous at first for safety, but it works and is really safe and well manufactured! The instructions were a little tricky to see but I was able to take a photo and brighten the words a little so I could more clearly read how to use this device. I just love the innovation and uniqueness of this lighter gadget!It is very lightweight, the usefulness ranges from just everyday use to unique situations like windy environments (ex. Beach), and you can just plug it right into your phone and it will work for as long as you need! Excellent longevity!

So the directions are as follows: Plug it into a USB-C power source (Which can be your smartphone) and if the device shows a solid blue line, then blow on the tip to activate it.Just a simple puff of air is enough.This device does not come with its own power source and needs an external battery.It's small, like the size of a pen cap.The tip gets red hot literally and is enough to light kindling and start a campfire. I don't smoke but thought my boy scout son would appreciate having this thing. It needs a high output power source so your older style cell phone chargers likely aren't strong enough. The solid blue light is an indicator that the power source has communicated with the lighter and reports that it can provide a high wattage to power the lighter.I initially received a defective one which broke after the 1st use and now treat this second one much more delicately.

Flameless and windproof, perfect for emergency kits or travel.This little lighter is surprisingly effective. It charges quickly via USB-C and holds a charge long enough for several uses. The arc is strong and lights candles or incense easily, even outside. The auto shutoff feature is a nice safety touch. It’s small enough to fit in a pocket or backpack and works without any fuel or flame. A useful tool for camping, travel, or everyday use around the house.

I saw this and thought it would be a great emergency lighter. It plugs into your phone but isn't hot until you blow a little on it which is pretty neat. It works great for lighting a cigarette but I have no doubt it would work for lighting kindling for a fire or a candle in a power outage (more in line with why I got it).

This USB-C mini electric cigarette lighter is a clever little device and very effective but you need to use caution with it.You can plug this little dynamo into the USB-C port on the bottom of your phone and then just blow on the end of it and within seconds it starts to glow red hot. It will light a cigarette or paper for fire kindling etc.At the same time I believe in abundance of caution needs to be used with this device. You definitely need to keep this away from kids as it is what I call an attractive nuisance and they can easily get burned with it or start unwanted fires. Based on my experience with this little gadget - it is an adult only accessory!

First thing to know - you have to blow into the end of the lighter to get it to light up, when you have it plugged into the USB-C port on your phone. I just saved you from reading the instructions; you're welcome. Once I blew into the end, it lit up exactly as I anticipated and I was able to light a stick of incense off the end of the lighter (which is what I bought this for; I don't smoke).Second thing. This is TINY. It is not the size of a Bic lighter; it's much smaller than that. It comes with a helpful little lanyard so you can attach it to your keys, or whatever, and I would recommend doing that, because otherwise this might be easy to lose track of.This is SO much nicer than carrying around a Bic or a Zippo or whatever that has butane in it. The lighter lights up fine and the lack of open flame is, to me, a plus. It's very portable and very versatile, and I've already found several occasions for using it. For me, I am using it to light sticks of bug-repellent incense for when we sit outside, and it's nice not to have to hunt down a lighter (which then may be out of fuel) just to get that task completed.

Don’t work

This electric lighter works fine, but only while plugged in, which definitely limits when and where you can use it. It’s super compact and the windproof, flameless design is a plus, especially for outdoor use or emergencies. But don’t expect to just charge it up and toss it in your bag—this isn’t a rechargeable lighter.It takes about a minute to warm up enough to light something, so it’s not exactly quick or convenient. And since it runs on USB-C, it’s only really useful if you already have a compatible phone, laptop, or wall plug nearby. I ended up plugging it into my laptop, which worked, but felt a little awkward for just lighting a candle.That said, for the price and safety features (like auto shutoff), it’s not bad—just know what you’re getting.Pros:✔️ Small and windproof✔️ No flame or fuel needed✔️ Auto shut-off for safety✔️ Good backup optionCons:❌ Not rechargeable—must stay plugged in❌ Takes a minute to heat❌ Awkward to use if no USB-C port nearby
