ABSTRACT:
A fuel burning lighter, optionally having an adjustable flame height, comprising a supply of liquified gaseous fuel burner means communicating with the fuel supply, valve means positioned between the fuel supply and the burner means, means to provide first force to retain the valve means in a closed position to prevent gaseous fuel from passing therethrough, and means to provide second force less than the first force biasing the valve means toward an open position. The second force providing means normally provides sufficient force to move the valve means to an open position when the first force is relieved or released from acting upon the valve means.
