Electric Arc Flexible Neck Long Lighter,Retractable Length 11.4in to 27.55in,Rechargeable Windproof USB Lighter,360° Rotated Ignition Port, Lighters for Candle Fireplace Pilot Light BBQ Grill Silver

Needing a long reach means to light the gas logs in our fireplace, I found this electric arc flex neck lighter to be the ideal tool. It has a built in battery which lasts a good while between charges. It comes with a charging cord with a USB plug that easily attached to the lighter handle. The extension telescopes to over 27 inches so it's the perfect length to safely reach the gas log tube. It is well made, easy to use, and super functional.

Works great for lighting pilot on heater, with it windy.

Arrived on time and the price was good. Seems well made, but the instructions are translated poorly. You have to figure it out for yourself. The charging cord is about 4 inches long, so the unit hangs from the outlet to charge. I will update as to how well it works once we use it a while.

Handy little tool to light my gas pilot. It does the job well, and has never failed me. It charges fairly quick, and the charge has lasted me a whole year. Granted, I only use it once per year, but it's impressive that it holds the charge for that long!

The lighter was not useful to me in lighting a gas pilot because the spark only lasted for 6 seconds which was too short a time and was frustrating. In addition the charging does not turn itself off when fully charged which can lead to overcharging and damage to the battery, and the customer is also warned not to completely discharge the battery which also degrades the battery yet there is no charge indicator to warn when the battery is getting low. I think there are better choices.

I have an older gas fireplace where you have actually turn the knob to turn on the gas flow. I can extend it so I'm not too close and works perfectly. With the shorter lighters like those for candles, it would scare me to lean close to light my fireplace.

It lit well. The extension feature was nice. The gooseneck was kinda short. Not much range. But, it just wouldn't fit thru the grates to light the gas grill. Holding the heavy grate up and reaching down into the gas element, in the dark. It wasn't a smooth process. Didn't suit our needs. Not sure electric is the way to go for the grill, or tea lights above your eye level. You need to see the wick to touch it to the spark. So, we sent it back, which was essentially effortless and quickly refunded.

This lighter is extremely easy to use. I have an old style rv oven that has to have the pilot lit and this has made it so that I do not have to reach in with my entire arm to light it. The lighter extends quite a bit which is more than needed for it to reach all of the way back. The little switch is not really an "on/off" like what most people are use to, but a tiny flick one way or the other activates the battery so that when you push the button it creates an arc to light with. The lighter does shut itself off after about 15 seconds of inactivity as a safety feature which flicking the tiny switch will "turn it back on." The battery is very long lasting and, after the initial charging through the usb cord, I have not needed to charge it yet. I would definitely buy again if needed.
