Battery and Charging

Pros:

  • "I haven't charge this lighter since I bought it and that was like 3 weeks ago."
  • "I cannot count how many lights I get on one charge but it is a lot like months worth."
  • "We haven't had to charge it yet and my husband got it for Christmas."
  • "The lighter works good and holds a charge for more than a couple of days depending on use."
  • "Charging last for months and then some.....I will buy more if needed."
  • "Better quality than I expected, seems to last forever on a charge."
  • "I've charged it only once, but have used it for months now without issue!"

Cons:

  • "This item functions great. I thought it would hold a charge longer than it does."
  • "Extremely disappointed... battery will not hold a charge... I literally only got 2 uses per charge... returning for refund."
  • "It worked great for 3 days until the battery ran out."
  • "Got it and stuck it on the charger for 8 hours... Stopped working after 2 days."
  • "Loved it for a week. Held a charge for six days. Second charge lasted three days. Third charge didn't make it one day."
  • "The battery doesn't last long enough to use for any extended period."
  • "got this a day ago. had to recharge it after about 2 minutes or so total usage."

Design and Build Quality

Pros:

  • "This is a well engineered and manufactured product that simply does the job."
  • "The unit easily comes out of the shell casing, making it easier to reach down into Glade candle jars."
  • "The lighter's case appears durable and sturdy, and seems like it will last a nice long time."
  • "The case is durable and has a clip to hook it on things."
  • "Case is surprisingly rugged and the lighter seems very effective after a day of testing."
  • "The safety clip that holds the lighter shut is well thought out."
  • "The lighter is super durable, exceeding my expectations."

Cons:

  • "Stop charging and now I know why the cause the battery imploded. While charging could have started a fire. Less than a week old."
  • "Seems like it could be damaged or crushed fairly easily if not taken care of."
  • "Plastic holders just don't last."
  • "The little spring that flips up the cover broke which was a bummer."
  • "Bought this in 2023 and now the device that holds the lid shut broke off due to wear and tear."
  • "It wasn't easy to use; quite cumbersome and BULKY."
  • "The cap gets in the way of everything."

Functionality and Performance

Pros:

  • "Fired up nicely straight out of the box."
  • "It's a perfect lighter for someone who smokes cigarettes or lights candles or incense."
  • "Handy little lighter with an extension that flexes."
  • "It sets all the different style fire starters I use while backpacking on fire quickly and with zero issue."
  • "The cross beam lighter function takes getting used to for lighting a cigarette but it functions as needed and totally windproof."
  • "This electronic lighter is an incredibly useful and practical tool to have around."
  • "The electronic lighter is absolutely wind-proof in sustaining its ignition arc."

Cons:

  • "Every time I try to use a lighter, it shocks my finger, and I think there’s an internal short."
  • "This product did not meet my expectations. I expected it to ignite a flammable product on a chairlift in normal ski conditions. It didn't."
  • "Was not useful in lighting camp fire which was the primary reason it was purchased."
  • "Did not work outdoors for a campfire, can only work in a sheltered area."
  • "The flashlight part would work but the lighter part would not."
  • "It’s not a very good lighter as I had trouble lighting cigarettes with it."
  • "For sure a last resort fire source. Not for daily use. Hand remains uncomfortably close to what you are trying to ignite."

Customer Service and Support

Pros:

  • "But what is really great in that the seller reached out to me due to my one star review."
  • "Great customer service! I wasn't expecting anything, but they reached out to me and sent me another free of charge."
  • "The product I was sent had a small non-performance affecting issue that the seller promptly and satisfactorily resolved."

Cons:

  • "Would be great if this product worked as it should. I've exchanged one to get another that was doing the same thing."
  • "I purchased this lighter as a gift for my friend works outside in the element. Worked great and he loved it, but it quit after 4 days, I am embarrassed."
  • "Update: Ms Mary contacted me and replaced the lighter. New one has been used much longer than the original. Original: I like how it works, but the battery life is bad."
