This is a goofy lighter. It looks nice and has a view port for the fuel and is apparently partially carbon fiber... but...

In order to light the thing, you have to push that left tabby thing in toward the flame hole and then pull back in the other direction with that top tab piece. So, you have to push and pull to make it work. You can get the hang of it (that's a weird expression if you think about it) and it becomes easier to use. Well, these, I got 2 of them, were just a giveaway with some CI order.

I assume the push/pull feature is a safety feature to go along with the "Butane Only" and "Keep away from children" stickers inside the flip top. 🤦

So... I used this lighter tonight. I don't like it. It is very awkward to use. And it goes out in the slightest breeze.

The good thing about it is... if there is no other fire source around.. it's better than nothing.

But think how much weight is saved by it being made out of carbon fiber...

That lighter has it all, carbon fiber AND chrome.

The only thing that could possibly make it more awesome is some truck nutz.

Someone here gifted me one. It always lights, but does go out fairly easily and that tab is a PITA.

4' that's small. I'm building a 72" span x 12" chord foam core wing for the back of my road race car. I'm waiting for warmer weather to cure the wing in my redneck autoclave. Carbon fiber becomes extremely strong when cured under intense heat and a vacuum.
