The Lighter With LED is a refillable butane pocket lighter that fires up a colour-matched LED alongside the flame every time you click it. One spark gives you a proper butane flame plus a coloured glow that actually helps you see what you're rolling, lighting or fixing in the dark. Colours ship randomly — part of the fun.
Why a Lighter With LED Earns Its Pocket Space
A lighter with LED solves the one problem every other lighter ignores: you can't see what you're doing. After 25+ years of watching customers fumble around in dim Amsterdam basement bars, unlit festival fields and back gardens after sunset, we can tell you a bit of side-light goes a long way. This one fires the LED the moment you press the button — same motion, same click, no separate switch to forget about.
The body is lightweight plastic with a slightly textured finish, so it doesn't squirt out of your fingers when you're passing it around. It weighs next to nothing in a coin pocket, refills with standard butane, and the LED colour matches the shell — red body, red glow; blue body, blue glow. Honest limitation up front: you don't pick the colour. Our warehouse pulls whatever's next in the bin. Order a few and they'll try to mix them; order one and you take what you get.
What You Get in the Box
One refillable butane lighter with a built-in LED, in a randomly selected colour. No butane included — standard refill canisters from any tobacconist work fine. Flame height is adjustable via the small wheel underneath, same as any regular butane lighter.

Pairs well with a pack of rolling papers and a metal grinder — the holy trinity of the smoker's pocket. If you're heading to a festival, grab a spare; these are the first thing to vanish in a circle.
How to Use and Refill Your LED Lighter
- Press the button once — you'll get the flame and the coloured LED at the same time.
- Adjust the flame height using the small wheel on the underside if it's too tall or too weak.
- When the lighter runs low, flip it upside down and press a standard butane refill canister into the valve at the base for 3–5 seconds.
- Wait about a minute before using it again — the butane needs to settle and warm up to room temperature, otherwise the flame sputters.
- Keep it out of direct sunlight and don't leave it in a hot car. Butane expands when it's warm, and a leaky lighter is nobody's friend.
Honest Limitations — What This Lighter Isn't
This isn't a windproof jet torch. It's a standard butane flame with a fun LED bolted on — if you're lighting a pipe on a windy beach, get a proper torch lighter instead. It's also not a colour-pick-and-choose situation: if you absolutely must have the purple one to match your bong, this product will disappoint you. And while the LED is genuinely useful in low light, it's not a torch — it'll show you what's on your rolling tray, not light up a whole room.
What it does do well: fires every time, weighs nothing, refills easily, and adds a small coloured glow that makes a mundane tool slightly more enjoyable to use. For the price, that's a fair trade.
Frequently Asked Questions
What colour will I receive?
Random — our warehouse picks whatever's next in the bin. If you order multiple, they'll try to send a mix, but we can't guarantee specific colours. If colour choice matters to you, this isn't the right lighter.
Is the lighter refillable?
Yes. It takes standard butane refill canisters, available at any tobacconist or supermarket. Flip the lighter upside down, press the refill nozzle into the valve at the base for 3–5 seconds, and wait a minute before relighting.
Does the LED drain the lighter or need separate batteries?
The LED runs on a small internal battery separate from the butane. It's designed to last the working life of the lighter — you won't be replacing it. When the butane runs out, you refill; the LED keeps going.
How bright is the LED?
Bright enough to help you see your hands and whatever you're lighting in a dim room or dark garden. It's not a torch — don't expect to navigate a dark path with it. Think "coloured glow around the flame" rather than "flashlight".
Is it windproof?
No. It's a standard soft-flame butane lighter, so it'll blow out in strong wind like any regular lighter. For outdoor use in wind, a jet/torch lighter is a better choice.
Can I travel with it?
Airline rules generally allow one standard lighter in your carry-on (not checked luggage), but rules vary by airline and country. Check your airline's policy before flying — we're not going to pretend to know every carrier's small print.
