Dual Flame Cigar Lighter Advantages | Lifestyle

by DaveSabot

While finding the perfect blend of tobacco is a delightful process, having the right tools on hand to help you enjoy that smoke is a vital consideration. You will find that your choice in lighters makes a tremendous difference in your smoking enjoyment and even in your ability to smoke. Traditional flame options are not great choices for cigar lovers, but torch flames may not offer pipe and cigarette smokers the best light, either. Thankfully, dual flame models give you the options you need.

What are dual flame lighters? In essence, the name says it all. These lighters are manufactured with more than one flame port. However, you will find that dual flame lighters are available in a couple of different types. Which one is right for your needs? To answer that question, you will need to know what each type offers.

The most common type of dual flame lighter has two jet ports at the top of the lighter. These are ideal solutions for cigar smokers, as dual ports help to ensure that you enjoy an even light every time. No matter how large those stogies might be, dual jet ports can help provide a clean light, and help you avoid problems like uneven burns or runs caused by other types of lighters or improper lighting procedures.

Of course, those who smoke something other than cigars will find that jet flames are possibly not the best idea. Therefore, you will find dual flame lighter models that feature a jet port and a traditional flame. Most frequently, the traditional flame is mounted at a 90-degree angle on the side of the lighter, while the jet port rests on top of the lighter.

When determining which type of dual flame lighter is right for your needs, you should certainly take stock of your smoking preferences. If you smoke cigars primarily, prefer a pipe, or enjoy cigarettes with the occasional pipe or cigar thrown into the mix, the right lighter will make a world of difference. In addition, it's important that you find the perfect lighter for you; this might not be the same lighter for someone else, even someone else with the same smoking habits. Take your time, investigate your options and make an informed decision and you will be happier with the results.
