Renewable Enery Solution
Let me start by setting the stage: I do not smoke, and I only carry this lighter when I go out, it gets little use at my place of residence.<br /><br />However many of my friends, family, and complete strangers do smoke, and I love offering this alternative renewable energy electric lighter solution when somebody asks "Got a light?".<br /><br />Now the product, it gets three stars for being innovative, this can easily be combined with a solar power USB charging system, if you're going to smoke might as well conserve natural resources (and  $$$ on bics or generic gas lighters). And Two Stars for working properly, holding a charge, and charging indicator LED so you know when to charge, and when charging is complete.<br /><br />-1 Star for the construction, The heating coil gets very hot and when you release the ignition mechanism a piece of plastic sits right above the cooling metal, it hasn't burned this plastic piece yet but it gets light use as of now. Also you know those times you step on something on the floor that you didn't see and it breaks to pieces under your foot, like a plastic hair clip with "teeth" or a pair of sunglasses? This lighter would bust like that if left in a pocket and that clothing was stepped on, however I have no evidence to support this claim, just a hunch and common sense. I also worry about the spring in the sliding mehcanism going out, which initializes the heating sequence.<br /><br />Lastly this cannot be used with pipes, safely. However it can be combined with a glass dabber to mimic the effects of vaporizing, just last night it was dubbed the "pocket vaporizer".<br /><br />Video Review available on request in comments.<br /><br />Enjoy
