Default "Cigar lighter" in the X100

Since the cigar lighters on my XKs are now completely subsumed by various USB connectors and remotes (and it was a crappy lighter anyway), it's now time for 'Cheap Crap of Genius'. The cheap crap that tops the tacky 'Jag Phone' that has been announcing calls with a distinctively cheap ringtone (70's kitsch) around our house for quite a while now (see below) is...

The Jaglighter (see further below). It is heavy (probably painted solid lead or some other toxic metal, but someone who smokes cigars is perhaps not the best proponent of clean living here). It works. See video attached for operation and the likely mildly toxic color changing flame.

You can have one for the low low price of $11.95+tax. Frankly, this is cheaper than the usual tax on an order of jag bolts. Clearly, I have no affiliation with this vendor because I would raise the price of this genius product making it even more valuable and desirable...

Glorious Jagphone. Note: no one in my household actually uses this as a phone. But, it stands ready for emergencies that wipe out the internet, all of our cell phones, all of our wireless phones that connect to the landline, all of the old Bell phones, that fancy landline phone we picked up from Belgium in the 80s...


Jaglighter of genius for the discerning cigarophile.

I thought 'that would be good for making crème brûlée'

It looks like you could solder wire with it.
