Thats interesting ..so it must be worse for people, like me, who constantly re light a herbal cigarette? i did buy what i thought was a vapouriser a few months ago , to cut out the tobacco and paper smoke, but it boring. i think im going to try an electric lighter, or start using matches again.

I have been using an electric arc lighter for the past 5+ years now. I prefer smoking out of a pipe and starting maybe 10 years ago I would cough up more mucus than usual. I just continued on thinking it was normal. My sister, who is in medical school, notices my cough one day and tells me that frequently inhaling butane will cause fluids to buildup in your lungs. She pointed out the electric lighters and convinced me to buy one. First one sucked as the point where the arc came from was too thick and wouldn't get close enough to the bowl, also it didn't have usb-c which was becoming the new standard at this time. Bought another one that was long, thin, and had usb-c.

I have had this same lighter for 5 years now and it is still working the same the day I bought it. I still cough (of course, since I am smoking ), but now there is noticeably less mucus, if any. It took some time getting used to how to hold the lighter and I always have to teach anyone I smoke with, but it is a good conversation starter for sure.

The lighter I use:

Anyone else have any experience with these?

I have one of these: https://solopipe.com/products/new-elektra-solopipe-self-lighting-electric-pipe

It works but I don't use it often. It can be a bit difficult at times to get the pipe smoking. For me, its been more of an expensive novelty that has not lived up to its billing.
