You can buy a Cricket utility lighter most commonly in the convenience stores, supermarkets, do-it-yourself stores or garden-centers to name a few places.

In order to light a BBQ in good conditions and in a safe way, we recommend you go for a lighter with a long nozzle. You can choose any Cricket utility lighter in our range (Original, Flex or Turbo). Satisfaction guaranteed!

An empty plastic lighter must be disposed of in the trash.

A Cricket Original lighter offers 2000 flames which is much more than any other comparable lighter. Depending on the lighter size, on average the Cricket lighters have the biggest gas capacity thanks to their thin nylon walls.

It depends on the rules and regulations for every country. Every Cricket lighter sold in a country where a child resistant system is mandatory, is complying to the international directives.

The Cricket Child Resistant Lighting System is considered as one of the best on the market.

Very few consumers reflint or refill their lighter and it is always a risk involved when it comes to gas. So to make them safer for the user and of higher overall quality the Cricket lighters are not refillable nor can you change flint.

No. Every Cricket lighter is using a patented system which makes the flame fixed (the flame cannot be regulated ). A fixed flame brings more safety and much better quality

Every Cricket lighter contains parts of recycled material.

Our Eco Cricket lighters are really growing in popularity and are made of 100% recycled nylon. We are constantly looking at new ways to leave a smaller footprint on our environment and one of our aims is to work on a plastic material management policy.

Every Cricket lighter is made in a very specific plastic material called Nylon 6.6. It is extremely tough, very resistant and self-extinguishing (once you remove the ignition source, the lighter stops burning).

The price of a Cricket lighter depends upon in which country, the packaging and what type of store you’re buying it. But it’s always value for the money and an affordable price taking into consideration the premium quality and the high number of flames contained in one Cricket lighter.

If you want a specific lighter model or design, ask your local shop keeper. Even if they don’t sell it in their store, they might be able to contact their distributor to get a hold of it. You can also fill out our Contact Us form and we will forward your request to our country distributor who will get back to you directly.

The most common places to buy a Cricket lighter are the tobacconists, supermarkets, petrol stations, convenience stores etc. Ask your shop keeper. Even if they don’t sell them in their store they should be able to order them from us.
