Expert tips
Ignition performance and technology
When buying an electric lighter, look at the ignition type. Plasma arc technology is widely used today because it creates a powerful, windproof arc. It’s efficient, durable and particularly practical for everyday use.
Plasma temperature and ignition behaviour
Depending on the device, the plasma temperature is approx. 1,100 °C to 1,300 °C. For specialist uses (e.g. lighting cigars with a thick wrapper leaf), choose a model with an especially hot cross arc.
Maintenance and cleaning
Carbon deposits on the arc module can affect ignition performance. Clean the contacts regularly with isopropanol and avoid metal tools so you don’t damage the insulators.

In a world that increasingly values sustainability, safety and innovation, electric lighters are becoming more and more popular. They replace conventional gas or lighter-fluid lighters with modern arc technology and offer plenty of benefits, whether you’re at home or on the go. They don’t create a traditional spark or an open flame; instead, they use an electric arc (plasma) that ignites at the push of a button. This arc is hot enough to light paper, cigarettes, candles, fire starters and even small pieces of wood reliably.
