XIKAR Astral Ships to Stores
A bit behind schedule, the XIKAR Astral is finally shipping to stores.
The Astral is a single-flame torch lighter that measures 1.4375 x 0.5 x 2.625 inches. It features a textured trigger button that is pulled down to ignite the lighter. In addition, the lighter features a large flame adjustment wheel and is said to work at high altitudes.
MSRP is set at $39.99 for each of the six colors the Astral is offered in: black, black and rose, gunmetal, gunmetal and blue, gunmetal and red, and brushed chrome.
Quality Importers Trading Co. originally said the Astral would ship in October 2021. This is the first new lighter model from XIKAR since the Meridian shipped to stores in mid-2020.
