A torch assembly for igniting a target fuel includes a torch including an elongate wand having a handle end and an opposing forward end, and a torch head located on the forward end of the wand. The torch head has a central axis. The torch head includes an outer surface, a fuel supply chamber, and a plurality of circumferentially spaced apart jet channels fluidly connecting the fuel supply chamber to the outer surface. Each jet channel is configured such that, when a pressurized flow of a gaseous torch fuel is supplied to the jet channels through the fuel supply chamber and ignited, each jet channel directs a respective flame jet forwardly and radially outwardly from the outer surface at an acute angle to the central axis.

A gas lighter for passing a flame from a first fire source to a second fire source including a gas fuel supply system to create a flame, a timer to regulate a time duration of the flame, and an actuation lever to activate the gas fuel supply system and the timer mechanism.

A firelighter cage (10) comprising a first side member (12) including a first wall portion (18) formed from a rigid mesh defining a first cavity (22) and a second side member (14) including a second wall portion (19) formed from a rigid mesh defining a second cavity (23). Connectors (24) are provided on a first edge portion (20) of the first side members (12). When the first and second edge portions (20, 21) are aligned and engaged against each other, relative rotation of the first and second side members (12, 14) causes the connectors (24) to engage with a second edge portion (21) of the second side member (14) such that the first and second wall portions (18, 19) define a chamber (16) for receiving firelighters (11).

Provided is a fire cube type of an igniting container, in particular the igniting container which is ignited itself for burning a charcoal contained therein. The fire cube type of an igniting container, includes a receiving volume formed by at least one wall, and made for an inflammable material; a flowing exit formed at an upper part of the receiving volume; a first and second opening formed at opposite parts of the at least one wall; an ignition guiding module forming a plural of flowing tubes to connect the flowing exit, the first and second opening, and displaced within the receiving volume, wherein an ignition is initiated at a position where the plural of flowing tubes intersect.

A torch device includes: a housing having a thermal energy source positioned therein; an ignition button operatively connected to the thermal energy source; and a thermal energy producing structure extending from a first end of the housing and operatively connected to the thermal energy source. The thermal energy producing structure includes an inner surface, an outer surface, an opening defined by the inner surface, and at least one orifice positioned around a periphery of the thermal energy producing structure such that thermal energy produced at the at least one opening is distributed evenly around a peripheral circumference of an object positioned within the opening
