Clamp-On Torch Striker
The 5-in. long, clamp-on aluminum unit is hinged at the bottom and fitted with an electric striker on top. There’s a pull-out trigger about half way down.
To light a torch you just fold the unit all the way up and pull on the trigger. It causes a mechanism to strike an embedded pizeo crystal, which produces a small spark that ignites the torch. The unit is then folded back out of the way.
“It saves a lot of time spent looking for a striker and is safer than using a cigarette lighter,” says Morehead. “It’ll strike about 30,000 times before it wears out, and water doesn’t affect it.”
The Flip N Striker sells for $39.95 plus S&H.
