Having to constantly replace a lighter can be really annoying! We all know the struggle! Fortunately, there are ways to store a lighter to extend its shelf life, whether it be a traditional or an electronic lighter. Let’s have a look at them!

How to Store a Traditional Lighter

Storing the lighter in a cool place is the best way to extend its shelf life. Some people even go as far as to vacuum pack the lighter and store it in a freezer to prevent the fuel from leaking.

However, storing the lighter in a cool, dry place will be sufficient. This will help prevent any fuel leakage and rust, which will make the item work after a few years if it hasn't been used.

How to Store an Electronic Lighter

Storing an electric lighter is simpler than storing a traditional one since there’s no need to worry about the fuel running out. The most important thing is to ensure that the lighter isn’t in the sun or near water. Therefore, a clean and dry corner or drawer will be sufficient.

An example of an electronic lighter that’s easy to store is the REIDEA R1 electronic candle lighter! This is just one of the many amazing perks of this lighter.

However, if the lighter isn't going to be used for a long period of time, it's best to charge the battery to at least 50% before storing it away.

When storing traditional and electronic lighters, remember to keep them out of reach of children!
