	Looks like a winner to me especially the extendable head. I have had some trouble lighting gas burners with the torch style lighters though. They don't seem to work as well as the standard Bic style lighter.

	I got a Soto last year. It's a bit different. Doesn't have the extending head like the link shows. Mine is almost a right angle to the body of the lighter. But it works great. Very simple to use. Produces a nice flame that's more wind proof than a Bic type alone. Only slightly more bulky than just the Bic itself.
