LcFun 2-pack USB-C rechargeable plasma arc candle lighter
A windproof, refill free candle and stove lighter pair that needs charging and occasional tip cleaning.
The short version
- People who light jar candles often and want to reach the wick without tipping the jar
- Gas stove, grill and fire pit users who want a windproof lighter
- Households that want to stop buying butane lighters
- The lighter will sit unused for months and a dead battery would be a problem
- Cleaning wax off the arc tips now and then sounds like a chore
- A larger burn area is needed, which single arc lighters handle poorly
What owners like
- Windproof arc works where a flame lighter struggles
- No fuel to buy or refill
- A charge lasts a long time for occasional candle and stove use
Common complaints
- Wax and soot build up on the arc tips and are fiddly to clean
- Repeated contact with wax can wear the tips over time
- Charging takes planning, since a flat lighter is useless until recharged

What it does
A pair of flameless, rechargeable electric arc lighters with a long bendable neck for candles, stoves and grills; the original Amazon listing now shows a different LcFun lighter, so this page covers the current LcFun 2-pack arc lighter.
- Electric arc instead of a flame, so wind does not put it out
- Bendable neck to angle the arc into deep jar candles, stove burners and grills
- Recharges over USB-C, so there is no butane to refill
- LED display shows remaining battery
- Safety lock and 7 second auto shutoff to limit accidental ignition
- Sold as a pair, with a charging cable for each
A practical pick for anyone who lights jar candles, gas stoves or grills often and is tired of buying butane or matches. The arc does not blow out in wind and the bendable neck reaches into deep jars. The trade-off is upkeep: the arc tips collect wax and soot over time and need cleaning, and the battery has to be kept charged.
