This is the third lighter I’ve purchased from this company. They work great! Also, they are a good conversation starter. Going to be buying plenty more to give as gifts during the upcoming holidays!Works well, came fully charged. Battery should last most the whole day but the lighter does produce a high pitched whine, also compact and lightI had difficulty with this lighter at first. This one doesn't have the single or double arc. Somehow, they have designed this to have multiple arcs that fire sequentially--very quickly--to simulate a spinning arc. What you have is, instead of the arc across 2 diodes, there is a circular "arc" inside an enclosed body, unlike the single or double arcs which are relatively out in the open.It took me a while, but I figured out that to light a smoke, you just aim at the hole, much like using an automobile lighter. I use my lighters mostly for lighting incense sticks. Here again, at first, I had trouble. But I figured out to get the stick just to the edge of the "flame" and not stick it clear into the hole.This lighter has a nice 4 point power gauge to let you know if you are in need of charging it. And, I must say, I think this lighter holds a charge the best of all the arc lighters I own, which is over a half dozen. I like the colored coating on the lighter. I'm not the kind of guy that carries a lighter for fashion, but it looks FAR nicer than the Bics and Crickets that you end up tossing in the landfill. That is the great part about the technology of the arc lighters. Re-charge and RE-USE. No filling the landfills with more plastic.The vendor has been quick to respond if I have a question. So, if you have been tossing around the idea of an electronic arc rechargeable lighter, I think you will be quite happy with this one.I especially like this lighter for a few reasons. It looks great,it's power supply is really good it last a good while, when you open the hood of the lighter it has the ignition button right at your thumb,and you get selection for color. I recommend this lighter to all my friends and I do the same for you.This thing is awesome and the talk of the smoke pit, but the battery only lasts half a day, no biggie, not that great either.I own the big arc lighter from the same seller. This is a different design and has a more focused range of use.For lighting anything cigarette sized at the tip, this lighter works great. Been using it daily for over a week and all is good. The battery holds up for several days and recharges quickly.A nice product.Battery lasted 2 weeks before needing a chargeReally cool gadget packaged very nice looks expensive and just cool to use 5 stars!!
