The product, in the report: A green see-through disposable lighter, about 4 inches tall and 1/2 wide
I used a lighter that I got for free at a smoke shop. First cigarette of the day it was 6am, overcast, and I’m sitting on my back porch. I light my cigarette, sit down on my two person porch swing, then sit my cigarette pack and lighter down on the empty seat next to me. About 3-5 minutes later, my lighter exploded. A large fireball engulfed my seat cushion within a split second. I was able to put the flame out without suffering any injuries but my cushion for my porch swing is destroyed. I shutter to think what would have happened if the lighter was in my pocket or worse, still in my house where I have a young child on crutches upstairs. Please do better at regulating cigarette lighters. I will gladly pay more if it means my family is safer. I always keep my lighters in a drawer in my office away from my fireplace or any other heat source, and I never leave them outside or in a car. After replaying this mornings events over and over in my mind I have come up empty as to what I did wrong or what I could have done differently to stop it from happening.
