Instant Charcoal Fire Starter

A lighter that can start fires without any lighter fluid sounds like a lot of hot air. Actually, that’s exactly what it is. Just plug in the 10′ cord and touch the nose of the lighter to your charcoal briquettes or campfire logs, blasting them with a stream of air heated to 1,256 degrees Fahrenheit (yikes!). Once you see sparks (about 15 seconds later), pull back 3″ to 6″, still aiming at the same spot. In less than a minute, you’ll have a crackling fire.
If you’d like, you can also use the lighter to speed up the heating process of the surrounding coals or wood. Regardless, once you’re done, the safety casing around the lighter is cool to the touch within a minute. And while you’re waiting for your food to cook, you can crack open a cold one with the bottle opener at the bottom of the lighter’s base. Now that’s living.
