Electric USB Rechargeable Candle Lighter. Available in Black, Blue, Rose Gold, and Silver.
CamelCamelCamel.
Interesting - because plasma lighters don't have gas in them. The Amazon description even says "no fuel, no gas" 🤣🤣
Because the don't have a flame, I didn't think that the worked very well for candles. They are supposed to work OK for lighting gas burners because the plasma basically creates a "spark" AFAIK.
Arc lighters work perfectly fine for lighting up candles. I've got a 7+ year old unit that still work fine even now (tested it again just now). Just have the candlewick between the prongs, fire the arc up for a couple of seconds, and the candle's lit.
(Getting mosquito incense started is a bit harder, but still doable.)
Do note that this is not a testimonial for the version in the deal. For all I know, these cheap ones could suck pretty badly compared to the arc lighter I have.
I’ve had this 2023. Good for candles and burners. Still going strong despite being diddled regularly by a 7yo.
It works pretty well for candles. The title even says it's a candle lighter + the image shows a candle.
I have a couple of these. It creates a plasma arc that you can put the wick through.
The amazon reviewer probably forgot that this is rechargeable 😂
an Anti EV user left that review….
I've bought one in the past. Terrible. Don't waste your money. Takes ages for the spark to actually light anything.
Thanks
Are you lighting it in a hurricane or something? My one has worked every single time. Use it at least 3 times a day for the last 2 years.

Bought that one to light our gas cooktop, it died after a week, Amazon refunded it, then we got this one, only been a few months but it's a far better design and hasn't missed a beat.

bought from above deal, use them everyday and they are still working
Same. I got a pair from this deal. Use if quite frequently and they still work.. The only annoying thing is they need a micro usb cable to charge.
yes and the charging port doesn't work properly need tweak to let it work
The picture looks like a micro usb to recharge, can anyone confirm?
Yes confirm. Don’t buy
Yep.

Plastic trigger is crap
That uses gas. No?
No usb c :(
Works as a taser too? 🤣
I have one that charges with USB-C. It works, just don’t get your fingers too close whilst clearing any wax that may get stuck at the plasma point as it hurts. The battery itself is a cheapie and degraded quickly after a month or two but is still good enough for a few nights usage lighting a dozen candles each time.
Can I use this for ripping cones?
It lights candles so probably.
Bought same one from a different seller for $7.49 off Amazon 2 weeks ago, so this really isn't a deal IMO.
great tool to torture the insects with
Price changed now rip
can i use this to light the gas cookers ?
Yes
Fine but not child safe. There is a switch and a button but the switch isn't spring loaded which would make it child safe.
Lighters aren’t child safe either. This is an alternative to a lighter. Maybe keep things that could stay a fire away from your kids?
Lighters are child safe. You appear to not be. Back to your keyboard mate.
See: Consumer Goods (Disposable Cigarette Lighters) Safety Standard 2019
Thats for disposable lighters, it has nothing to do with regular lighters like a zippo.
One of the 1 star reviews on amazon:
'Used it around 5 times and it ran out of gas'
