Butane lighter

Storing (Long time

User story

The butane leaked out from some of the lighters because the O-ring didn't last. It was because of the pressure the liquid butane exerted on them.
Over time the O-ring gives out and the butane leaks out.
There was another problem with the striking wheel that made the flint spark. It oxidized over time and because usless in making the flint spark.

The way I over came these problems is by putting the lighters in a mason jar with a good seal on it.
I sacrificed one lighter by taping down the lever that allows the butane to come out and place it in the jar and screw it down tightly.
This solved the pressure problem and caused the O-ring inside the lighter to not be under so much pressure and they last much longer.

The oxidation is solved because outside air can't get to the striking wheel because it is in a closed enviroment.

I took silicone and smeared over the jar lid so that water moisture wouldn't cause rust on the jar lid and help secure a tight seal for years to come.
