This electric lighter is rechargeable and now down to only $5 at Amazon

I wouldn't recommend trying to calculate how much money you've spent on disposable lighters. Instead, let's just cut your losses and stop the bleeding now with a rechargeable version instead. You can snag Camtoa's USB Rechargeable Electric Arc Lighter on sale at Amazon today for just $4.99 when you use promo code CAMTOA002 during checkout. That saves you 50% off its cost otherwise, but the real savings come once you stop wasting money on lighters that end up tossed in the trash after a couple of months.

This USB rechargeable electric arc lighter features a long handle and a flexible nose that can be rotated 360 degrees, helping you to light candles and more without accidentally burning yourself. Unlike regular lighters, this electric model doesn't smell, doesn't have a flame, and doesn't require any fuel. You simply plug it into a USB port to power it up. It's windproof, too, making it even more useful to use outdoors.

You should have no trouble getting tons of use out of this lighter on a single charge, though if you're planning on going camping or vacationing, it's always wise to have a power bank just in case. This guide to the best power banks under $30 has several great options to choose from if you don't own one already.

Camtoa includes a USB cable with this lighter so you can be prepared to begin using it as soon as it arrives at your home.
