The MEIRUBY is a single-arc rechargeable USB lighter with a long, flexible neck designed for candles, BBQ, and camping. It features flameless plasma-arc ignition, windproof operation, and USB recharging via a proprietary port. The rigid-but-extended neck reaches deep into candle jars and grill niches. Safety includes a basic protective cap. Housed in plastic with rubberized grip, it ships as a single unit at a mid-range price point. Best suited for indoor candle lighting and casual outdoor use; the single arc and modest battery capacity limit performance in extreme wind or chain-lighting scenarios.
