The Firebird 2.0 is a rechargeable electric arc lighter, an upgraded version of an Alessi pop design icon first designed in 1993 by Guido Venturini. This cutting-edge lighter works without flammable liquid, producing a small electric arc that supplies enough heat to light a candle without a real flame. Famed for its memorable and titillating shape, the original Firebird was born out of a design workshop to investigate the ability of objects to inspire, intrigue and amuse.

Lily E. ★★★★★

I was a bit skeptical of a rechargeable lighter, but the USB-C charging is incredibly convenient. The arc feels much safer than a traditional flame, and it lights candles and stovetops instantly. This thing looks great sitting on my counter too.

Miles ★★★★★

The arc is instant and silent, which feels almost futuristic compared to fiddling with a flint wheel. It’s surprisingly light in the hand and the rechargeable battery means I’ve barely thought about fuel since it arrived. A sleek upgrade that’s become my go-to for candles and the grill.

Ryan ★★★★★

I've been using it daily for lighting candles and the grill, and the arc is powerful enough to work even in a slight breeze. The rechargeable battery lasts over a month on a single charge for me.
