| You don't want to use the kind of lighter that makes a flame as is, but you can discard the butane system (or use it to fuel a pill bottle gun) and use the built in piezo for ignition. It's a bit more powerful than that of a disposable lighter, and already has leads attached. |

| no it doesnt make a flame, ive taken the piezo out the lighter and attached the wire to one of the screws and the gap between that screw and the other is about 34mm..... |

| 34mm, if my conversions in head are anywhere near close, then you have a about an 1 1/3 inch gap am I correct? My experience with the mini peizo that are inside lighters, if you got a spark arc for that distance, then you were lucky, but I think your screws are to far apart for a consistent spark, try placing you screws closer together, or just try bending them closer together. That should help. |
