Cool lighters that stand out and simply work
Cool lighters are also called special, unique or unusual lighters, and it comes down to the same thing: models you pick up because they look different. Transparent bodies, bold colours, shapes you do not expect.
The point is that they also have to work, because a lighter that is only fun ends up in a drawer within a month.
Which cool lighter do you choose?
With eye-catching models the pitfall is in the build: a good-looking body with a flame that stops catching after two weeks. So besides the design, look at whether it is refillable and what kind of flame it has, because that decides whether you still use it in a year.
Design that stands out
Transparent bodies where you watch the gas level drop, bold colours, and models with a shape you do not expect. Exactly why people give them away or leave them out on the table.
Genuinely usable too
Watch the type of flame. A jet flame is blown out under pressure and does not blow out, a soft flame is calmer indoors. And check whether it is refillable, because that is the difference between months and years.
As a small gift
This is the category where people come looking for someone else. A set with several colours then lands better than a single one, and a refillable model stays in use longer than a disposable lighter.
An eye-catching model is refilled with butane gas at 45 PSI just the same. With transparent bodies you see straight away how much is left, which makes refilling easy.
Buying a cool lighter at PyroProducts
This category holds the eye-catching models: transparent bodies, bold colours and unusual shapes, with one to four flames, singly or in sets. Most of them are refillable with butane gas.
If you are after class rather than attention, have a look at the luxury lighters. If it mainly has to keep burning outdoors, those are with the storm lighters.
When comparing, look at the type of flame, whether it is refillable and whether you want a single one or a set with several colours. An overview of the most unusual models is in the top 5 unique lighters.
If you are torn between a single one and a set, think about where it will end up. On the table or in the car one is enough, but if you are giving it away or tend to lose them, a set with several colours is handier and cheaper per piece.
Frequently asked questions
What exactly are cool lighters?
Models that stand out through their design: transparent bodies, bold colours or an unusual shape. Special, unique and unusual lighters mean the same thing and sit in the same category with us.
Are cool lighters actually usable?
That differs per model, so look at the type of flame and whether it is refillable. A jet flame does not blow out and a refillable model lasts for years, while a disposable one is empty after a few months.
Do they work as a gift?
This is very much the category where people are looking for someone else. A set with several colours often lands better than a single one, and a refillable model stays in use longer.
Can you see how much gas is left in a transparent lighter?
Yes, and that is the practical advantage right there. You see the level drop and can refill before it gives up, instead of finding out at the moment you need it.
Which gas do you use for this?
Butane gas at 45 PSI, just as with the other refillable models. Hold the lighter upside down, fill calmly until gas escapes and wait a minute before you light it.
Do you also sell sets with several colours?
Yes, part of this category consists of value sets in which you get several colours or versions at once. That usually works out cheaper than single pieces and is handy for giving away.
