About This Product

The XIKAR Meridian Triple-Flame Lighter combines traditional flint ignition with an unusual three-flame soft-flame design. Three broad flames spread heat across the cigar foot, providing faster and more even coverage than a conventional single soft flame while retaining the gentler character of traditional cigar lighting.

A replaceable flint keeps the mechanical ignition system serviceable over time, while an oversized adjustment wheel provides easy control over flame height. XIKAR’s EZ-View fuel window makes the remaining butane easy to monitor, and the generous fuel tank is designed with regular cigar use in mind. For smokers who prefer soft flame over torch jets, the Meridian offers a distinctive high-capacity alternative.

How to Use
  1. Check the EZ-View fuel window to ensure sufficient butane remains.
  2. Adjust the flame height using the oversized adjustment wheel if required.
  3. Operate the flint wheel to create a spark and ignite the three soft flames.
  4. Bring the cigar foot towards the flames without pushing it deeply into them.
  5. Rotate the cigar gradually so the broad flame pattern warms and toasts the entire foot evenly.
  6. Draw gently while continuing to rotate until an even light is established.
  7. Extinguish the flames completely after use.
  8. Refill with suitable butane and replace the ignition flint when required.
Care & Maintenance
  • Wipe the exterior regularly with a soft, dry cloth to remove fingerprints, dust and surface residue.
  • Keep the three burner openings, flint wheel and surrounding area free from tobacco particles, lint and accumulated flint dust.
  • Replace the flint when the ignition wheel no longer produces a strong, reliable spark.
  • Brush loose flint dust gently from the ignition mechanism with a small, soft, dry brush.
  • Use good-quality purified butane to help maintain clean and consistent flame performance.
  • Keep the flame-adjustment wheel free from accumulated dirt so it continues to move smoothly.
  • Store the lighter clean and dry, away from excessive heat.
Safety & Handling
  • Keep the lighter out of reach of children.
  • Point all three flames away from the face, clothing and other people when igniting.
  • Refill away from flames, sparks and other ignition sources.
  • Allow the burner area to cool after repeated or prolonged use.
  • Keep away from direct sunlight and temperatures above 50°C.
  • Never puncture, burn or otherwise damage the pressurised lighter body.
  • Ensure all three flames are completely extinguished before carrying or storing the lighter.
