First off, hello all! I'm new to this forum and this is my first post but i've been a creeper for a while.

Ok so here is the story. I am currently an intern for the government (DoD) and going to school (mechanical engineering) I have been looking to start my own business, specifically in cigar accesories. I am just doing some grassroots research and seeing what the cigar smokers would like in their lighter.

So:

How much are you willing to pay for a quality lighter?
What features would you like to see in a lighter?
What materials do you prefer?
What shape/size/texture are appealing?

and also please feel free to leave any other comments about what you would like to see in a lighter.

P.S. I can't wait to start posting in the whole forum :)
