The
Windmill Delta
Shockproof Lighters - Shock Resistant and Stormproof. By adding a tough elastomer armor, Windmill created the
Delta Shockproof Series, with all the stormproof qualities of their standard lighters plus incredible impact resistance for the most
demanding conditions and most difficult outdoor challenges.
The Windmill Delta
Shockproof Lighters feature an oversize fuel window for
quick, easy checks on fuel status and a stainless steel wire closure
to keep your Delta Lighter watertight even if it falls from your pack or
pocket. Size: 2.6" H x 2.05" W x 0.93" Thick, Weight:
2.0 oz., Fuel Capacity: 1 gr.
Piezoelectric
ignition technology - Piezoelectricity, now commonly used as
igniters for gas stoves and outdoor grills, eliminates the need for
batteries or flints which fail when wet. Releasing the lighter
ignition button mechanically bends the lighter's piezoelectric crystal
which produces an electric current. Ignition occurs when an electric
spark meets the butane gas in the combustion chamber.
Windproof flame
- A continuous flame is produced as butane gas vapors ignite upon
contact with the superheated catalyzer coil element. The lighter
burns at very high temperatures (800 - 1,000 degrees C; 1400 to >2,000
degrees F), producing a clean, hot flame which is nearly invisible in
outdoor bright light.
Refillable butane
gas fuel- Burn time with each fuel filling is approximately 300
ignitions at 3-5 seconds duration (over 30 minutes). Easily refills in
seconds with butane gas fuel available at most grocery, drug and convenience
stores (check were cartons of cigarettes are sold). Shipped without butane fuel by law.
Manufacturing quality
control - Each lighter is individually tested at the Windmill
factory to assure the piezoelectric ignition system and the flame
adjustment ring are working properly. Windmill provides a lifetime
warranty against mechanical defects.
Blow-Torch Style
Flame. Adjusted to a medium setting, the flame is ¾"
(2 cm) tall with a pin-point tip. The flame burns steadily, without
the "dancing" typical of a standard lighter.
