Pros: You can set fires yeh fire fire fire burn burn FIRE!!!! Oh, it stores data, too. And it makes fire. Not some piddly little flame but a blue-hot pinpoint inferno that could melt solder or your enemies' flesh.
Cons: Crappy slide mechanism for USB doesn't lock well. Try to insert the USB stick into a socket and it retracts leaving you baffled and helpless, crying in the rain. And my left pinky hurts because I accidentally burned it.
Other Thoughts: I had high hopes for this product but they were cruelly dashed by an inadequate slide lock. Curse you, incompetent Product Engineer! I'll use the lighter to make you die in a fire! HA HA HA HA HA HA HA!!! FIRE FIRE FIRE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Bottomline: If you have a frequent need to burn things and record some data, your product choices are pretty much limited to this thing. Too bad for you the slide lock is an inadequately engineered piece of bat guano. Wait, I take that back since bat guano is actually useful as a fertilizer. It still gets a 5 because of the ingenious combination of fire making and data storage capabilities, even if the whole data storage thing seems like cruel hoax once that USB plug starts retracting.

Pros: Handy to have if you work in IT and smoke alot..
Cons: USB does not slide out properly, it jams up and you need to use your fingernail to guide it out of the opening in the lighter.
Other Thoughts: It is a good idea to keep USB flash chip so close to flamable substances as well as the extream heat the jet lighter emits?
Bottomline: Its the perfect christmas gift for the office smoker.
great xmas present
