There’s a new single flame lighter from Techno Torch, and while the name may leave something to be desired, the price will certainly be appealing to cigar smokers looking for a value-priced, pocket-friendly lighter.
Known as the Techno Torch Rubber Slant Torch Lighter, it is a wind resistant single torch lighter that is ignited by a sliding lever. It also comes with a keychain loop so it can be attached to a key ring or secured to a table or other surface. The lighter is refillable via a standard valve on the base.
It is available in red, black, and blue, all of which come in a matte finish. It is priced at $9.95 and is currently shipping to retailers.
I strive to capture the essence of a cigar and the people behind them in my work – every cigar you light up is the culmination of the work of countless people and often represents generations of struggle and stories. For me, it’s about so much more than the cigar – it’s about the story behind it, the experience of enjoying the work of artisans and the way that a good cigar can bring people together. In addition to my work with halfwheel, I’m the public address announcer for the Colorado Rockies and Arizona Diamondbacks during spring training, as well as for the Salt River Rafters of the Arizona Fall League, the WNBA's Phoenix Mercury, the G-League's Valley Suns, and previously the Arizona Rattlers of the Indoor Football League. I also work in a number of roles for Major League Baseball, plus I'm a voice over artist. Prior to joining halfwheel, I covered the Phoenix and national cigar scene for Examiner.com, and was an editor for Cigar Snob magazine.
