A cigarette lighter is a flame-producing device that is used to light cigarettes, cigars and pipes. It consists of a metal or plastic container filled with a flammable fluid or pressurized liquid gas, a means of ignition, and some provision for conveniently extinguishing the flame. In the early 1800s, the German chemist Johann Wolfgang Dobereiner invented one of the first lighters, which was referred to as the Dobereiner’s lamp. Since then, the leading companies have made significant changes in their design and functionality to offer enhanced convenience to consumers.
