How to Make a Prison Lighter
How to Make a Prison Lighter
"Prison lighters" were depicted in the Netflix series "Orange is the New Black". Making one involves a crafty use of resources by inmates to fashion a lighter from supplies they have available to them.
Steps

Using a Gum Wrapper

Grab the gum wrapper. Remove the gum itself. Then unfold the gum wrapper until it's fully flat. Cut a thin strip of of the gum wrapper (length-wise).

Fold the gum wrapper strip. Then fold it in half (length-wise), and cut the edge that you just made by folding it, to make the middle even thinner. You need to do this in order for the electricity to flow from each ends of the battery to the center where they will touch, it should look something like in the picture.

Attach the battery. Take one side of the strip and attach it to the + side of the battery. Then take the other side of the strip and attach it to the - side of the battery.

Wait. If the fire doesn't start right away there may be a delay, so wait as it can take 1 second to 1 minute for negative side to touch the positive side, and make it hot enough for the plastic on the other side to catch fire.

Using Tin Foil

Get the tin foil. You're going to want to cut it into a thin line that's just a bit smaller than your pinky finger, and fold it (length-wise). Next cut the edge that has been made when you folded the strip to make it thinner than the strip itself, in order for both the negative and positive side connect and heat up.

Place the negative and positive sides of the battery on the tin foil. Take one side of the tin foil strip and put it on the plus side of the battery.

Do the same with the other side. Again there may be a delay it can take 1 second to a 3 minute for the tin foil to catch fire.

What's your reaction?
