I`ve bought a Novelty lighter off eBay, it has 3 setting, one is a normal flame the sort found on a coventional cig lighter the other is a Green color flame and that`s basicly a drop of Copper metal on a platinum wire across jet.

but it does a bright red flame too, as good as any Strontium salt would and when mixed with the blue jet the color`s Very vivid.

the element across the jet looks like a small ring suspended in 3 places to the nozzel chassis.

it appears metalic, but what`s it made from???? :confused:

 

the fuel is ordinary Butane lighter gas.
