A common lighter is a small, portable device used to produce a flame for igniting materials such as cigarettes, candles, or campfires. The most familiar type is the disposable butane lighter, which features a refillable gas chamber and a flint or piezoelectric ignition system. Other types include matches and refillable lighters, such as Zippos, which are often favored for their durability and aesthetic appeal. Lighters are widely used for their convenience and ease of use.

What fuel inside the lighter?

The fuel inside a lighter is typically butane, a flammable hydrocarbon gas. Butane is stored in the lighter under pressure, allowing it to remain in liquid form. When the lighter is ignited, the butane vaporizes and mixes with air, creating a combustible mixture that produces a flame. Some lighters may use other fuels, such as lighter fluid, butane remains the most common choice for portable lighters.

What is the difference between lighter than air and heavier than an air vehicle?

"Lighter than air" aircraft are lighter than air! The most common are blimps. They do not rely on wings to generate lift. They contain a lighter than air gas (ex:helium) that lifts the craft into the air when ties to the ground are released. "Heavier than air" aircraft are the opposite. They rely on wings to generate lift to get into the air. Common heavier than air aircraft are general airplanes you see in the sky everyday.
