Vector-KGM has announced a pair of new pocket-friendly, single torch lighters that it aiming to have available next month.

The Vector Huracan is notable for offering anodized black rubber matte grip accents on the side as well as a cigar rest cap. It measures 3.2 x 1.5 x 1.2 inches, weighs 6.5 ounces, and is available in five colors: clear, black, smoke, blue, and red, all of which are transparent to make it easy to see how much butane is in the tank.

The Vector Turbine is designed for those who prefer a slim body, with multiple air vents on its sides for enhanced ignition and flame performance. The Turbine measures 3.3 x 1.45 x 1 inches, weighs just 3.5 ounces, and is also offered in five colors: clear, black, smoke, green, and red, again all being transparent.

Both the Huracan and Turbine feature a large, visible fuel tank, a flame adjuster knob, and an ergonomic press-down ignition. The company says that the large single flame on each lighter is equivalent to three merging flames.

The two lighters are priced at $29.95 and are scheduled to be released on Oct. 21.

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 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.
