Torch Lighter

This Torch Lighter is perfect to do everything from light a cigar, to a cigarette, to a camp fire. Best of all, because it is small and stylish, you can take it anywhere. That makes it an excellent bit of Everyday Carry Gear. I use mine to light my pipe. It takes about a half second to get the bowl going with this Lighter. It is also a nice way to offer a light when someone requests one.

When it comes to Camping Gear I prefer a Ferro Rod. A Ferro Rod lasts way longer then the fuel in this Lighter. But this Lighter has a different use for me. There are times when setting a fire quickly is a matter of survival. If you need to set a signal fire, the speed and ease of this Lighter makes it worth burning the fuel.

Post disaster I can think of several scenarios where a Lighter is preferrable over a Ferro Rod. If I need to create a flaming vehicle barricade behind me to flee, I don’t want to screw around with a Ferro Rod. I just want to pull the activator, set the fire, and run.

Torch Lighter Scoring

This Torch Lighter can have a Low Impact on your survival and scores a 99/1000. This Lighter gets points for being easy to carry everyday and use. It loses points because it requires fuel to be refilled. That fuel is going to be fairly hard to get after the stores shut for good and roads become clogged with abandoned cars.

Don’t let the number fool you. Being on the list of top thousand survival gear items is a big deal. Just being on the list makes this critical gear.

  • Adjustable flame.
  • With max temp up to 2800°F, it can easily deal with outdoor wind.
