The use of fire is an important aspect that distinguishes humans from other animals, which also makes humans Evolution in the natural environment has accelerated. In our daily life, in outdoor activities, whether you smoke or not, a lighter is a must. How to choose a good lighter. Now I will do a little personal evaluation on several types of lighters I have seen. The lighters are divided into: liquid oil engine, compressed gas engine, flint engine according to the type of fuel. From the ignition method, it is divided into: flint ignition, piezoelectric quartz ignition, and high-voltage pulse ignition. According to the burning method of the flame, it is divided into: open lighter, jet burner (windproof lighter).
The flint machine is a kind of lighter that reflects individuality without fuel. Because there is no open flame, it is generally only used to light cigarettes. And because it is expensive and expensive to use, few people use it. Not much on the market.
High-voltage pulse ignition is a high-grade gas engine ignition method used more before the advent of piezoelectric quartz. The advantage is that ignition can be done with the flick of a switch (your gas stove probably has this structure). The disadvantage is that the ignition system is complicated in structure and requires a high-voltage battery as a power source. High failure rate and short life. The ignition system takes up a lot of space, and the lighter has very little space for fuel. At present, this type of lighter is basically invisible, unless it is a collection of enthusiasts.
