Interesting battery lighter 2 July 2007

It is battery power, I am interested. It use 2 x AAA cell that total voltage is 2.6-3V.Can light a piece of paper. It is cheap and no OFF in  strong wind condition.  I saw it too long ago when I was young. 

Its construction is simple, that is 2 cell sockets, 1 heat wire, 1 bulb and 1 switch. The switch is SPDT mode and connect to wire and bulb in the bottom representational

The load of wire is 2.2 ohm. When turning on, the wire will be heat to red color and the current is at least 1A (2.6v / 2.2 ohm =1.1A). If the capacity of battery is 750mAH, the using time is near 0.7 hours (0.75Ah / 1.1A=0.68).

Taking your own risk.
