Flash Paper Igniter?

[cedwards90]

I am looking for a device that secretly lights flash paper, cord, etc

I have seen many on the market but none of them look very good and are quite pricey

what do you recommend?

I've only used a flint flasher I got from Penguin.
It has worked well for me, not noticeable if you handle it right, sorta like a thumbtip. Once I knew how I could get it on, use it, and then ditch it I started using it lots, even when I was performing casually for a few people. Uses the same flint as in a zippo so you can find those refills easy. Overall the this device served me well, recommended (though I can't compare to other devices).

Or just google "flint flasher" lots of results.

Note: All it does is make a spark so you might want flash cotton. I load mine with flash cotton at the bottom (where the spark is) then torn up pieces of flash paper.

I use a 'penlighter'
It's exactly what it sounds like.
