1 . A new lighter comprising:
a. a coil of aluminum wire connected to a computer chip board and a battery;
b. Said computer chip board also being connected to said battery, wherein said battery is capable of producing heat during discharge;
c. Wherein said computer ship board is capable of actuating said battery to discharge when triggered by sufficient air being blown onto said aluminum wire coil;
d. Wherein said heat generated by said battery during said discharged will be conducted along said aluminum wire coil;
e. Wherein repeated actions of blowing air onto the coil in a short period of time causes repeated discharges of said battery and resultant heating of said aluminum wire coil to higher temperatures.
f. Said aluminum wire coil, said computer chip board and said battery all located inside an insulated chamber capable of preventing unintentional actuation of the discharge of said battery wherein said shell has an opening to permit blowing air onto said aluminum coil and also to permit utilization of the heat generated at said aluminum coil.
