Okay, so I stumbled upon this thing called “ovo lighter” and thought, “Why not give it a shot?” I mean, I’m always up for trying new gadgets, especially if they look kinda cool.
First, I went online and did some digging. Just wanted to see what this ovo lighter was all about. Turns out, it’s not your average lighter. It’s, like, egg-shaped, and apparently, it’s electric. No butane, no flame. Interesting…

Getting My Hands on One
I ordered one. It took a few days, which felt like forever because, you know, I was curious. When the package finally arrived, I ripped it open. The thing was pretty small, fits right in your palm. It felt smooth, kind of like a polished stone, and it had some weight to it. Not heavy, just… solid.
Figuring It Out
Now, I’m not gonna lie, I spent a good five minutes just staring at it. There’s no button, no wheel, nothing you’d expect on a regular lighter. Finally, I found this tiny little touch-sensitive area. You just tap it, and bam! This little arc of electricity appears between two points. It’s like a mini lightning bolt!
My first test? A piece of paper, obviously. I held the ovo lighter to the edge, and it started smoking almost instantly. Then, poof, a tiny flame. I was genuinely impressed. It was way easier than I thought it would be.
Putting It to the Real Test
- Candles: Super easy. No awkward angles trying to get the flame to the wick.
- Incense: Lit it up in seconds. No fuss.
My Verdict
Honestly, I’m pretty sold on this ovo lighter thing. It’s sleek, it’s different, and it actually works. Plus, I don’t have to worry about running out of fuel or dealing with those annoying flint wheels.
I charged this one via usb-c type.
It’s definitely going to be my go-to from now on.

If I had known that it was so easy to use, I would have bought it a long time ago.
