AI Technical Summary
Technical Problem
Conventional handheld lighters lack unique features and are limited to producing flames of colors determined by the fuel used, with no option to change the flame color without altering the fuel composition.
Method used
A portable handheld torch lighter with a replaceable flame-coloring insert treated with a flame colorant, such as strontium or other chemical compounds, which can be inserted into the lighter to produce colored flames by heating, allowing control over the color hue and duration.
Benefits of technology
Enables the production of unique colored flames, enhancing the lighter's features, aiding in visibility and identification, particularly in media applications and varying light conditions, without requiring changes to the fuel type or adding additives.

Abstract
A lighter includes (a) a lighter body for storing fuel; (b) a lighter head extending upwardly from the lighter body to an outlet of the head for directing flow of the fuel toward the outlet; (c) an integrated ignition system for selectively releasing and igniting the fuel to produce a flame projecting along a flame path from the outlet; and (d) a replaceable flame-coloring insert including an insert body removably mounted to the lighter head adjacent the outlet. The insert body treated with a flame colorant positioned in the flame path for coloring the flame when heated.
