When Wind Kills Your Flame and Rain Drowns Your Matches—This Lighter Doesn't Care

The Plasma Lighter That Works in Rain, Wind, and Cold—When Bics Die and Zippos Fail

Ready to Stop Cursing Your Lighter Every Time the Wind Blows?

Plasma Arc Ignition That Defeats Weather

Dual electric arcs create 1,100°F heat instantly without flame, wind, or oxygen requirements, so you can light campfires, stoves, candles, or tinder in howling wind, pouring rain, or high altitude where gas lighters fail—because plasma doesn't blow out, it just burns.

USB Rechargeable, No Fuel Ever

Built-in lithium battery charges via any USB port and delivers 200-300 ignitions per charge, so you're never buying butane, lighter fluid, or fuel—just plug it in like your phone and you're good for weeks of use without depending on supply chains or gas station runs.

Waterproof Housing That Survives Real Use

IPX6 rated sealed construction that works after being submerged, dropped in mud, or soaked in your pack, so when you pull it out wet, cold, or covered in dirt, it still fires up instantly instead of becoming a useless hunk of metal like conventional lighters that quit the moment they get damp.

Compact Tactical Carry Design

Pocket-sized profile that clips to gear, slides into packs, or rides in your pocket without bulk, so you actually carry it instead of leaving it behind because it's too big—and when you need fire in an emergency, having it with you is the only thing that matters.

Charge It Once. Light It 300 Times. Trust It Every Single Time.

  • Works in wind that kills everything else

    I've tried lighting fires in 30mph wind with gas lighters and failed every time. This plasma arc doesn't even notice the wind—just fires up instantly. Should've bought one of these years ago.

  • Dropped it in a creek, still works

    Accidentally dropped this in a stream while camping and figured it was done. Pulled it out, shook off the water, and it fired up immediately. The waterproof rating is legit.

  • No more buying gas station lighters

    I used to go through a Bic every two weeks. Charged this once and it's lasted me three weeks of daily use so far. Never buying disposable lighters again.

  • Camping in the rain? No problem

    Got caught in a downpour on a hunting trip and everything was soaked. This lighter fired up immediately and got our fire started. Worth every penny for reliability alone.

  • Better than my Zippo

    I've carried a Zippo for 15 years but I'm tired of refilling it and dealing with evaporated fuel. This plasma lighter just works without the maintenance. My Zippo is retired now.

  • Lights campfires with ease

    I was skeptical about using this for actual fire starting but it works perfectly with dry tinder. The plasma arc gets hot enough to ignite fatwood and char cloth instantly. Solid survival tool.

  • EDC on my keychain now

    Small enough to carry every day without noticing the weight. I've used it for everything from candles to starting my grill. Charges fast and lasts forever between charges.

  • Winter camping approved

    Used this in 15-degree weather and it worked flawlessly while my buddy's butane lighter barely sputtered. Cold doesn't affect plasma like it does gas. This is my winter carry now.

  • Prepper essential

    When fuel supply chains fail, this lighter still works as long as you have electricity to charge it. Pair it with a solar charger and you've got infinite fire. Smart backup for any preparedness kit.

FAQs

How does plasma arc ignition work? Is it actually better than flame?

Plasma lighters create an electric arc between two electrodes that reaches over 1,100°F—hot enough to ignite anything a flame would. The advantage? Wind can't blow it out, rain doesn't extinguish it, and it doesn't need oxygen like combustion does. At high altitude or in extreme weather where gas lighters struggle or fail completely, plasma just works. It's not a gimmick—it's physics that defeats the conditions where conventional lighters become useless paperweights.

How many lights do I get per charge and how do I recharge it?

You get approximately 200-300 ignitions per full charge depending on conditions and usage. Recharging is simple: plug it into any USB port (computer, wall adapter, car charger, power bank) using the included cable. Full charge takes about 1-2 hours. Compare that to constantly buying disposable lighters or refilling Zippos with fuel you have to carry and hope you don't run out of in the field.

Is this actually waterproof or just "water resistant"?

IPX6 rated, which means it survives powerful water jets from any direction. In practical terms: you can drop it in a creek, get caught in a downpour with it in your pocket, or have it soaked in your pack, and it'll still work immediately when you pull it out. The seal protects the electronics and charging port. It's not designed for prolonged underwater submersion, but for real-world wet conditions outdoors, it's completely reliable.

Can I use this to light a campfire or just candles and cigarettes?

You can light anything that catches from direct heat contact: tinder for campfires, gas stoves, candles, paper, kindling, char cloth, fatwood—anything. The plasma arc needs to physically touch what you're igniting, so you can't light something from a distance like a flame, but for starting fires with proper tinder setup, it works perfectly. Experienced outdoorsmen use it exactly like they'd use a ferro rod—prepare your tinder, apply heat, build your fire.

What happens when the battery eventually dies? Can I replace it?

The lithium battery is rated for 300+ charge cycles, which translates to years of regular use (potentially 60,000+ ignitions total over its lifetime). When the battery eventually degrades after years, the unit would need to be replaced—but that's still cheaper and more reliable than buying hundreds of disposable Bics or countless cans of lighter fluid over the same period. You're trading fuel dependence for electricity, and electricity is everywhere. For backup fire starting, keep a ferro rod. For primary reliable ignition, this is your tool.
