Cigarette Lighters

It's a fake. That serial number is on many fakes, no matter what the style is. The value is whatever you want to pay for it if it works well, and they often do, but you could have a problem with leaking. They can sell for 20 or 30 dollars up.

Beattie Jet Lighters were made from the mid-1940s until 1961.

The jet lighter was first invented by London-based Guy S. Barker in 1929. He filed his U.S. Patent on November 5th, 1930 and was granted his patent on January 17th, 1933. Inventor William E. Evans, who worked for the Waterbury Lock and Specialty Company of Milford Connecticut, created a refined design based on Barker's original work. Evans filed his patent on August 25, 1939 and was granted a patent on May 20, 1941. Yet a third jet lighter design was created by Francis Leslie Phillips who received his patent approval on December 30, 1947. Phillips design is almost an exact duplicate of Evans' earlier design.

It is possible to differentiate earlier Beattie Jet lighters from later versions by both the patent number(s) listed on the lighter and by the typography engraved onto the lighters' bottoms. Earlier lighters list Guy Barker's patent number: 1894300

Later versions list both the Evans patent number (2242906) and the Phillips patent number (2433707). Oddly, some Phillips-designed lighters with a reservoir fill screw on the bottom list the Barker patent number and not the Phillips number.

Sometime prior to 1944, the patent rights to manufacture the Beattie Jet lighter were acquired by Robert W. Beattie of Brooklyn New York. Beattie, who grew up in Upstate New York in the Long Lake area attended the Manual Training High School, an engineering and technical school where he developed an appreciation for ingenuity in invention. Though the Beatties lived in Brooklyn where they operated a pre-school, Beattie and his wife, Elvira, owned and operated a summer camp - Camp Beattie - located on the west shore of Long Lake. The camp is no longer in operation; it has become a private residence. Robert Beattie was also apparently an early marketer and/or distributor for the original Jet lighter made in England.

The Beattie Jet Lighter was produced in nickel plate, chrome plate, engine-turned chrome, heavy silver plate, heavy gold plate, and in solid sterling silver. One could buy them encased in lizard, morocco, and pig skin leathers. Prices ranged from $6.95 to $49.00 for the solid sterling models. A desk model in either morocco or pigskin was sold for $11.95.

Champ also produced the Champ Jet Stream lighter (c. 1950) which was essentially the same, as did Lord Chesterfield (c. 1955) and MasterCraft Spit Fire (c. 1955). Rogers produced the Rocket Flame Lighter in Japan (c. 1958). The Jet lighter, made in England and marketed by Robert Beattie, was probably the oldest - patented in 1929.

about $, bucks dude

Throw one of the cigarettes over-board, and the boat becomes one cigarette lighter.

Under the hood, driver's side near the windshield is a box. Remove the lid and there are your fuses. I have a 1994 New Yorker and according to my manual, the cigar lighter fuse is in cavity 8. It requires a 20 Amp yellow fuse.

Bic Started making their diposable lighters in 1973.

Check the fuse panel usually located on the driver side under the dash or in the glovebox. There should be a fuse marked C/lighter or something along those lines.

It is possible it may be under the hood in the Main big fuse box. check these fuses VERY carefully.

There's some easy ways to detect cheapish fakes. There's some more elaborate ones on the market, but not many.
1. Serial number. Stamped on bottom by hand, so IRREGULAR. 6-8 characters (numbers and capitals) at most.
2. "lack de chine" present on lighters that don't have any
3. Colour-code of required refill inside filling cap
4. initials of employee who made it behind the flint roller when you remove it.
5. Most popular models (diamond head, Lackue de chine) most likely to be fake.


Most important: price. Don't expect a real one new for under 250 US $.

The correct model designation is Browning Auto-5 "Sweet Sixteen" and the serial number is 71S7136. If in absolutely new-in-the-box condition value will be solidly over $1500. sales@countrygunsmith.net I am looking for one is it for sale? dnbutl@aol.com

Butane.

One could buy a windproof lighter at most smoke shops or websites that specialize in smoke shops. Two manufacturers that make windproof lights are Zippo and IMCO. One could check their official websites to purchase a windproof lighter.

No, they must be in your carry on luggage.

It's under the hood in the engine compartment power distribution box, Viewing this box opened, it's the third one from the cut off corner, farthest from the circuit breakers. It may be labeled "Cig Illumination" and it's 20 amp. Have this as an on-going problem with mine. It also controls the power take-off port in the console and the power seats. My seats work fine but the lighter doesn't, so mine isn't the fuse. Could also be a bad socket or wiring.

The Green Papaya Soap is geed for that, it balances your skin tone, and breaks down the acid left from the UV light absorbed from the sun. The Green Papaya Soap is made in the Philippines, and can be ordered from various health web sites.

Owner's manual. I own a 1998 Jeep Wrangler and have the same question. I know there is a fuse for the cigarette lighter & I know it's in the fuse box inside the vehicle's glove box. However, the owner's manual does not document the specific fuse for the cigarette lighter. My first suspicion was that it is part of a grouping, but I haven't been able to determine which one from reading the manual. Also, the cigarette lighter is the only device not working in the dash. Any and all feedback is appreciated. Thanks in advance! - Beth Part 2 - after reviewing the manual and fuse panel again, the only description that applies is Power Distribution Center Coils. This is fuse position 11 (10 amp Red) on the 1998 Jeep Wrangler Sahara. If this is the correct fuse, then my non-functional cigarette lighter is not the result of a blown fuse. - Beth I just changed the fuse to my cigar lighter in my 98 sport and it was in position 19 labeled acc. sw. This fixed my lighter problem. Perfect - That fixed my lighter issue - One Note tho - 20 amp fuse. Thanks Fixed my problem too, thank you for the info. Fixed my three year old problem Too (98 Wrangler Sport) Thanks so much. Will I have the same problem for my 1990 wrangler(4cyl). my fuse box is not labeled the same... any info or help for me? I have a 98 wrangler sport as well and this fixed my problem by replacing the fuse in spot 19. This fuse was empty and for some reason it is labeled spare in my jeep.

Yes.

Everything freezes.

The universe would freeze and obliterate itself if it got down to 0K (Kelvin)

How exactly would the universe obliterate itself if it reached 0 Kelvin? I don't think you understand heat transmission in a vacuum. Additionally if the entire universe had a collective temp of 0 Kelvin then it would have to assume that all matter was evenly separated, that there were no black holes and that the universe has stopped expansion and was neither retracting but just static. Even then though the universe being at 0 kelvin would not be what killed it but a result of being dead. When you evaluate matter in all its forms you can see how preposterous that statement is or to put it another way:

No where in your rambling incoherent response did you come close to making a rational thought, everyone here is now dumber for having read it, I award you no points and may God have mercy on your soul.

PS, with enough pressure everything does not freeze but lighter fluid in normal circumstances will freeze at -220 F. The thing though is at what temp is it still useable? depends on your heat source, as you still need to raise it's temp to its flash point, so at a cold enough temp you may get it to spark but not remain on fire due to the temp of the liquid. Ronson light fluid has a flash point of 4c.

its in the glove compartment

Butane, but I know there's a better one though. Butane is like the standard, while you could buy higher end fuels.

Lighter fluid becomes explosive when it is allowed to sit and evaporate. As a gas, it has a much greater surface area, and, consequently, can react with oxygen more quickly--explosively, even.

from what i have learned a person can be allergic to anything. Smoke from any source will cause symptoms of an allergic reaction however, it causes the nose to run, eyes to water, and throat to be itchy. The only way to be sure is to be tested at an allergist.

It's NOT inside the car interior. It's under the hood. Pop the hood and look on the driver's side up near the firewall for a black plastic

cover that goes over the fusebox and the brake master cylinder. It's attached at the rear with two small black plastic knobs you turn

a half turn to release and then slide the thing out of the little tab on the side of it and remove it. There you will see the fuse box with

two shiny metal clips that just pop up to open the fuse box. Now, look in there towards the FRONT of the car and you will see ten fuses

in a row. The cigarette lighter fuse is the FIFTH ONE GOING FROM THE PASSENGER SIDE (right side) of the car. The official number of

that fuse is 47, but it won't say that on top of the fuse. It will probably be blue and have a white 15 on top of it for 15 amps. That's it.

It is located with the rest of the fuses under the dash between the steering column, and the left kick panel. The fuse cover will be marked with fuse identification.
