Though the space across which the hot electric arc travels is narrow, it's working well to ignite the pilot light for our natural-gas fireplace. Also worked well on candles.
I like the long, flexible neck. Nipped off one star because to me the symbols for the button and slider which turn on the power and ignite the arc seem reversed.

This is one of the best things I ever bought! I love candles tjis is perfect lights up wonderful. Just charge and you're good to go. Highly recommend

Love this lighter. I recently started having trouble with my hands and clicking normal lighters are terrible! I'm going to buy a couple more to have in other rooms in my house. Yay! I can enjoy candles again

so cute & different

The media could not be loaded. I have MS. The Gooseneck Design is what will make this safe and possible for me to light a candle.

I do rather struggle with it because I have a proprioception issues. It's hard for me to sense where the gooseneck tip is going so far away from my hand "” further than a standard Bic click stick lighter which I could manage with more accuracy but has become too hard to click to get a light.

I also have a digital hand lighter, but the flame on that seems dangerous to tip to light a candle so close to my hand.

I think it's the only safe way to light a candle for me tho and I might need another compensatory strategy for using it to I know how I'm pointing.

Otherwise, I really like this device. I don't have to push the buttons hard at all to get the device to light. That's a huge benefit.

It's super lightweight and the long handle easy to grip. The position of the buttons are convenient.

The video I'm posting also depicts the very first time I'm using it. It is a little confusing at first to figure out what the buttons do. Apparently, the switch needs to be turned on before pressing the round button to activate the laser beam.

I bought two of them, one for the kitchen and one for the bathroom. I was able to charge both fully (overnight) on a small back up battery and still have 3/4 charge left on the battery.

The cords are short. Since I'm charging on a small battery, this is no problem, but for those who must charge by plugging into wall, it could be a problem.

I recommend labeling the cords so you know these go with this product "” especially if you have a lot of devices to charge. These cords look a lot like the short ones ones for my backup batteries.

I could see this making a really unique, novel and affordable gift for someone.

The plastic has no chemical odor or smell. I'm a chemically sensitive person. (In this case, the match I lit was the problem.

Not that I want to support smoking, but for those of you who are looking to light a cigarette or cigar, I think this unit would be difficult bc of the distance between the ends where the laser comes out.

I like the fact that when it's activated or lit, it makes a noise. Seems like it's a natural safety feature in case the safety is off and the button is depressed.

As a person with executive function deficits and short term memory loss, I'm not sure how effective the safety switch is going to be. I'm likely to forget to use it. A timed off would probably be a safer design.

I'm not a pink person but the rose color is pleasant enough. I only got rose bc it was the best deal.

I just received these and started using them, so can't say how long the device will last or how consistent and reliable it is. I can come back after a time and report out.

I figure if it lasts a year, I won't be any behind for the butane lighters for how often I use those. I'd probably come back here and just get another from this seller.
