* Variable Factors: Flame height is affected by many things:
* Wind: Even a slight breeze can significantly alter the flame's shape and height.
* Angle: Holding the lighter at different angles changes how the flame behaves.
* Fuel Level: As the lighter runs out of butane, the flame will become smaller.
* Type of Lighter: BIC makes various lighters, each with a slightly different design.
Instead of a specific number, here's what you can generally expect:
* Typical Range: A standard BIC lighter will have a flame that reaches roughly 1-2 inches (2.5-5 centimeters) in height when held upright in calm conditions.
* Important Note: Never directly measure the flame height of a lighter with a ruler. It's extremely dangerous and could cause serious burns.
Focus on safety: If you're working with fire, it's crucial to prioritize safety. Always use lighters responsibly and follow safety guidelines.
