Child-Proof Lighters

[partyguy420]

arg... i hate those stupid things... and hate it even more when other stoners dont take them off... so im always sitting there with a pipe in one hand and a child prof lighter and a kinfe in the other taking it off

[Jake0steve]

I usually keep them on bics because i didnt even realize that they were child safety devices...I shall try getting it off my current favorite lighter in a moment.

[Jake0steve]

Oh damn i know what your talking about, ya every lighter i end up with tends to be de-childproofed.

i thought it was something else.

[NightProwler]

yea i just checked my stash of lighters and only one hadn't been de-childproofed.

I noticed the child-proofing before but it never made it any harder for me. Gonna take the metal off my bic now just to see if it really does make a difference. I'm curious...

[Nullific]

Does it seem to anybody else like lighters got bulkier when they added this child 'saftey' mechanism? I remember them being somewhat smaller several years ago. They don't sell the lighters you can tweak and cause to exlpode around here anymore either.

lmao look at mike jone's icon! great choice.

[Killa.Kali]

I hate those things too

whats the point in 'child-proofing' a lighter? darwins theory of evolution works the kid who burns too many nose hairs ends up looking like michael jackson i mean come on, what happened to the good old days when parents let their kids learn on their own? Jeeeeeez my mom was happy when i stuck a fork in the outlet...course she got really pissed when i did it again =\

Buy one those miniature screwdriver sets from the dollar store. They come in handy for popping off the child-proof part of the lighter, and also, cleaning bowls and scraping resin.

I think it's only the bics, because i bought a ligter at some fair with a pot leaf on it and the words "natures way of staying high" and it didn't have a child saftey thing.
