Abstract: A gas lighter with a body having a first end and a second end with a conduit having a first and a second opening extending in the body with a striker wheel 2 rotatably positioned at the first end of the body proximate the first opening of the conduit is disclosed. The body further includes an elongated gas tank 5 for storing gas therein with a gas suction pipe positioned in the elongated gas tank which conveys the stored gas out of the tank. The gas suction pipe terminates in an end with a gas discharge valve and is positioned proximate the striker wheel for starting and stopping gas flow from the elongated gas tank. A flint is positioned in and extends from the first opening of the conduit and operatively engages the striker wheel.
