How to choose a jet lighter for cigars

Lighters are one of the most frequently used accessories among cigar aficionados. However, not all models offer the same features or are designed for the same type of use.

A good jet lighter must combine power, control, ergonomics, and ease of refilling.

What is a jet flame?

Unlike a conventional flame, a jet flame is designed to offer a more concentrated heat point and greater resistance to certain environmental conditions.

This provides the user with greater control during lighting.

Flame regulation

The ability to adjust the intensity is especially useful because not all cigars have the same diameter or require exactly the same heat application.

A adjustable flame allows the lighter to be better adapted to each situation.

The Easy Torch 8 Rubber line precisely incorporates an adjustable jet flame. 

Reusable versus disposable

For regular use, a refillable model offers a clear advantage: it can be refilled with fuel instead of being completely replaced when it runs out.

Easy Torch 8 is a refillable system and also features a large capacity butane tank according to the Megpubli catalog specifications.

Ergonomics and surface

A lighter is a product used directly by hand, so the outer surface also matters.

A non-slip finish improves grip and reduces the possibility of the lighter slipping during use.

Easy Torch 8 models use a non-slip rubber surface and are available in different colors.

For retail, simplicity also matters

From a store's perspective, a good lighter should be:

• easy to explain to the customer;
• simple to use;
• rechargeable;
• compact;
• visually identifiable;
• suitable for counter display.

That's why jet lighters can function both as a functional accessory and a complementary purchase product within a specialized store.

In summary: when choosing a jet lighter, it is advisable to consider flame type, regulation, refilling capacity, ergonomics, and construction, not just the exterior design.
