Carbon left by Butane

I have just bought an Eagle Bill Vape and Shake and very nice it is, well you have just got to buy it cause it's an Eagle Bill's. anyway I was using it with a jet flame lighter and it worked well then I used a cheap lighter and the bottom of the pipe went black with soot (carbon) which got me thinking how clean my burning is when piping. My wife is a science teacher and has done an experiment on clean fuel and methane wins, so I want to make a methane lighter.

I wonder if you can fart and suck on a pipe at the same time.

I too am looking for a lighter which does not go broke, at least not soon. Most cheap cigarette lighters will suffer damage from keeping up a flame for more than 5s. Most gas oven lighters are too bulky.

If botanic gas is healthier than fossile gas then I would prefer to suck in that through my purepipe. I guess it´s a matter of what refill cartridge you can get.

Ive been working on a 9volt glow plug to use instead of a lighter. There are more than a few problems with it atm. One making the plug move in and out like a lip stick case. Its easy to burn yourself with hot metal, another is how to cool it down and not melt the container...
It will be quite a while longer before I have a good working model and then it will be so expensive it will most likely never be put into production... bah

you guys never heard of phedor ceramic lighters??? they are not cheap but would probaly cost less than designing your own, and heating up and inhaling metal ions is notg good for you so I would switch to a ceramic element. phedor is made by the same company that makes super vapzilla.

And require a power socket ...
