    A handy lighter for Gas, Alcohol etc. stamped on the frame " Shoot - A - Lite " Safety Gas Liter" made by Cadweld - Erico Cleveland, Ohio. Measures 6 1/2" long and 5/16" thick, made of tin, uses regular Ronson type flints, lever at tip lifts to insert new flint, fires a good size spark and works well.

    I have one also. Works great. Trouble is that I like to drown briquets with old Coleman fuel and when I lit them using this lighter, I ended up singeing all the hair off my right arm. Next time I toss a lit wooden match!

    Save your old Coleman fuel for the stoves, it doesn't go bad...

    It says: "Acetylene and alcohol only"! Naughty [-X

    Every gas welder has one. ;)

    It's hard to read in the photo but above the "Acetylene & Alcohol" it reads

    " Lites " Quickly Gas Gasoline"
