I realize that this is total overkill but would it make a good candle lighter? My wife has a very hard time getting the disosable lighters to work.

It's a pretty powerful little tool. I'm sure it would work to light candles, but honestly, I think you should keep looking for something else.

I'd say that it would but it would be an expensive way to do it! I use those grill lighters, the long ones. I forget the real name of them but you can find them in the section where there is charcoal and grilling supplies. That is so much better than a regular lighter as it is long so I don't worry about burning my fingers. Hope this helps

WAYYYYYY too powerful for a candle lighter. I use it for soldering sterling silver. Using it for candles us overkill. Get a butane fireplace lighter for candles.

I think it would be overkill. It is a tactical light so is heavy and wider than average flashlight. Something much smaller would be easier to handle and right one would illuminate well.

That sound like a good project.This product does not have a battery, so it only is powered when plugged in and the current is on.if you take it out of the cigarrete lighter it goes off.

I would think the tool is too 'light' weight for that type of function. Never tried it for that. If it starts to smell, shut it off.

Hey Jason. No worries. This light is awesome! I think those are extra. Unscrew the head and you should find three o-rings there. If not, insert them in the slots and grease them with any type of Vaseline. Cheers

I would not even try to go that low, it would probably just make it overheat and burn up. You will need to look for a different device. What are you trying to do and I might be able to suggest a tool.

I'm adding it as part of my fire starting kit for camping/SHTF. It will work when a lighter doesn't. I am including a few lighters and water proof matches as well. Always good to have a few options to start a fire

I have the same issue with this lighter. I usually have to use both hands to light the lighter, flicking it several times before it ignites, sometimes and you have to squeeze the safety REAL hard. It sucks because I am used to one hand lighters.

I had the same issue. We used a long candle lighter to light them. We only used two lanterns out of the 50. I sent the others back for a refund. They are cheaply made. Both lanterns tore during assembly and took forever to get off the ground once we were finally able to light them. Do yourself a favor and get your money back.

Everyone beat me to it - and they are all correct. You might be able to scavenge a lighter plug off of some other device that you have sitting around and attach it to the ring terminals, but be absolutely certain that you have the polarity correct before you attempt to rig something up, or you will find yourself with a damaged electrical system - or worse!

I tried and it fried and let out the magic smoke after screeching horribly for a few seconds. I wouldn't advise lol.

Sorry, but there are so many superior charcoal lighters out there that I will never use my Looflighter again.Wanna buy it? $30, and I'll pay shipping. Used once. You'll be disappointed, I promise.

It gets hot easily so I wouldn't recommend it. Get a blow torch. This is a torch lighter for cigarettes.

I don'treally know as I haven't made candles. The things I have read though kind of discourage essential oil for candles.

There is a tip that creates a torch, but I've tried to light it without a tip with limited success.There is also a tip that makes it a heat gun.

This unit is rather large & sort of bulky....i just got one the other day, and i still have lots of questions...i assembled it, and filled it with some water & waited until the light came one & tried it out, but i don't think i had the right attachment....i too would like to know how hot the steam gets & what all can i use this on? i thought it might be good to clean some of our grandson's toys, etc...i think i'll call the info number this week....

I am using it for my pillar candle which is big. I think it would be too thick for tealight candle~! ;-)
