If there is one thing that we have come to conclude about vaporizers is that your vaping experience is only as good as the lighter you use. This is especially true for flame-powered vaporizers. As the year starts we take a look at some of the best jet lighters based on the conversations we have had with people that are into flame-powered vaporizers. The jet lighter is not only good but is in every sense of the word perfect. Which jet lighter is best for flame-powered vaporizers? Well, here are five jet lighters that you should try out.
These are some important terms when it comes to vape terminology and we are going to be using them a lot in this article.
- Flame-to-intake Vaporizers (FTIs)
- Thermal Extraction Devices (TEDs)
Cyclone
When it comes to jet lighters, control is everything. The Cyclone Triple flame lighter brings just that to the table. We have already highlighted that flame vaporizers require just the right dose of energy and nothing does it better than the Vertigo Cyclone jet lighter.
Technical Specifications
The triple flame that is the trademark feature of the Cyclone offers wind resistance and this means that even if you are in the open using your lighter for your flame vaporizer won’t be a problem. In terms of ignition the Vertigo Cyclone Triple Flame jet lighter comes with a dual ignition system that is powered by the popular quartz ignition system, in terms of technical ability, Vertigo Cyclone is in every sense of the word perfect.
Design
The Vertigo Cyclone comes with a triple flame and a carbon fiber make. The carbon fiber can be attributed to the amazing lightweight that comes with the device. Weighing only 0.05 Kg you won’t even know you are carrying it. In terms of design, there are very few that come close. The minimalist grenade-like design gives everything off and ensures that you enjoy using the lighter every time you decide to vape.
Compatibility
If you have a TED, you are most likely not going to need a triple flame vaporizer but the fact with The Cobra you have so much control that you can even use it for TEDs like the Dynavap.
The Cobra
The Cobra is the perfect fit for your FTI flame vaporizer and here is why.
Technical Specifications
The Cobra offers an extensive level of resistance which allows you to easily use your FTI even when you are outside. Using high-quality butane as the fuel, one thing that you are assured of is perfect workability. The best part about the jet lighter is that it is refillable and that means you can use it for the year on end if you refill it.
Design
In terms of design, the cobra is very minimalistic. We know the last thing you would want is a lighter that is all over the place. The Cobra is quite small too and fits perfectly in your pocket. There is a downside to the size though. It might be a bit difficult to use it, especially for beginners. The rubbery finish will help though in terms of grip.
Compatibility
In terms of compatibility, The Cobra is not the extensive multipurpose lighter as some sites might advertise it to be. if you are using Flame to Intake vaporizers though then you are assured of not only a great vaping experience but a perfect one. The Cobra works very well with the Sticky Brick Vaporizer. The minimalistic design of both The Cobra and the Sticky Brick Vaporizer makes the two the perfect pair.
Volcan-Fire
You know a lighter is all about business if it has “volcano” as part of its name. This rings true for the Volcan-Fire jet lighter and here is why
Design
In terms of design, Volcan-Fire is unique in every respect of the word. The Volcan-Fire is shaped like a small piston with the ignition placed on the trigger position. In terms of aesthetics, Volcan-Fire does everything right. The same can also be said about the size of the Volcan fire as it easily fits in any pocket.
Technical Specifications
The Volcan-Fire is fueled by butane and offers an amazing blue flame. Although it is a single flame lighter the power of the flame is quite intriguing. The best part is that you can lock the flame. This means that once ignited you can just “lock” the flame and enjoy. You can also adjust the size of the flame, amazing, right?
Compatibility
One thing about the Volcan-Fire is that it’s powerful and it is compatible with a plethora of flame vaporizers. Based on our own experience though, the Volcan Fire will work extremely well with all flame to Intake vaporizers. Of mention, though, are the Vapman.
Unilite Jet Flame Jet lighter
If portability and power are what you look for in a jet lighter, then this is definitely the jet lighter for you.
Design
We have already highlighted that portability is the main theme when it comes to the Unilite Jet Flame. The device is minute and minimalistic and easily fits in the palm. Although the build is mainly plastic, the traces of steel give the lighter that premium feel.
Technical Specification
One thing that we must mention about the Unilite Jet Flame is that it comes pre-filled with butane. This means it is ready to use from the box. The jet lighter produces a strong blue flame and the ignition is quite quick compared to competitors on the market. In terms of fuel efficiency, the Unlite Jet Flame is unmatched. One refill will give you an extended period of amazing vaping.
Compatibility
There are very few single flame jet lighters that can power FTIs with relative and the Unilite Jet Flamme is one of them. If you have Vapman or A Sticky Brick vaporizer it will work perfectly. The Unlite will work with TED vaporizers but we recommend you use it mainly for FTI.
Cyclone 2
From Vertigo, the “Cyclone 2” brings on the heat when it comes to jet lighters.
Design
In terms of design, the “Cyclone 2” is quite a handful. From the glass, the plastic and to the metal, there is a lot of material that went into the build of the lighter. If you are one for compactness and minimal flare, then the size will certainly suit your fancy.
Technical Specifications
Well, the “Cyclone 2” comes with a triple flame functionality and to add to that you also get the dual ignitions system. The best part about “Cyclone 2” is that you can control the strength of the flame.
Compatibility
“The Cyclone 2” is the perfect example of “one light fits all”. Due to the control capabilities on the “Cyclone 2”, you can use it with both TEDs and FTIs. This means that the VapCap M, the OmniVap and the Dynavap will work very well with the Cyclone 2.
Conclusion
When it comes to vaporizers and lighters it all comes down to preference. Be sure to pick a lighter that you like and enjoy vaping with.
