the clipper lighter: made for pot heads

Do you have one?

Why are these lighters made to get high with?
1. When the lighter is tilted downward [such as when lighting a bowl of ganja] the flame size increases automatically. When held upright, it returns to normal size.
2. Built in pokey.

3. The cylindrical shape allows for better flame access to deep bowls [trust me i did the physics on this], and is also more ergonomically friendly.
4. Has way cool graphics if you dig that scene.
bic ain't got nothing on this-- can i get a witness?!

What physics would that be?
I dont like the safety on those lighters. Otherwise, I see negligible difference. I only use the lighter to get the bowl going - just for a second. After that I take the flame way.

They never work as well after you take out the pokey thing a few times

i have had a couple that have lasted me nearly two years now-- removing the pokey doesn't seem to have had an effect.

i squinted my eyes and looked real closely at both and counted to 3. i then looked to see where i was.
@Cepheus i think spain makes most of them, so they probably trickle their way down from there. i don't even know if they reach canada, never have i seen any here-- but luckily they refill nicely.

THESE are my favorite CLIPPERS. They're really hard for me to come by in the ATL. Some of the BP gas stations with the AM/PM food brand thing set up carry an AM/PM branded version of this. It has a pentagonal wheel.

That flame is huge when I try to smoke bowls, and you can't see it but the front metal, where the flame comes out, is shaped like a ship's bow, rather than just rounded like a Bic. And the pentagonal flint wheel makes it effortless to "Flick" as it were.
Yeah, I think I like these clippers better.

This angle shows the front of the lighter shape better.

Unfortunately this one doesn't have the pentagonal wheel

Yeah, first one isn't a great representation, but those things are really hard to find pictures of.
The back side of the lighter that goes into your palm if flat, the front side comes to a point (like a ship's bow)
I guess the Pentagonal wheel isn't standard on all of em though
