Specifications

What Is the Butane Lighter Used For?

Release the safety switch, bring the tip to the wick or burner mouth and operate the lighter; with its 9 in length the user's hand stays back from the point of ignition. Because it produces a real flame, the same tool lights wick-type spirit lamps in biology practicals, candles in combustion and air-composition demonstrations, and gas burners in chemistry sessions.

Set the safety switch again as soon as the burner is lit and keep the lighter in the teacher's tray between uses. As it cannot be refilled, labs running many practicals usually hold a few spares and dispose of empty units according to local rules for gas lighters.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can the Butane Lighter be refilled?
No. The Butane Lighter (SLE/B/09) is non-refillable and is replaced once its butane runs out. Because of that, schools usually order a few spare lighters together with their burners so a practical never stalls for want of a light.

How many lights does one Butane Lighter give?
One Butane Lighter provides hundreds of lights. The exact number depends on how long the flame is held each time, so short, quick lights at the burner mouth make each lighter last through more practical sessions.

What does the safety switch on the Butane Lighter do?
The safety switch on the Butane Lighter prevents it from being operated unintentionally, for example if a student picks it up. Release the switch just before lighting and set it again straight afterwards.

Should I choose a butane lighter or a piezo lighter?
The Butane Lighter gives a real flame, so it lights wicks, candles and gas burners alike. A piezo lighter only makes sparks, which suits gas burners but not wick lamps, so labs using spirit lamps generally need the butane type.

Can the Butane Lighter be shipped outside India?
