I would think that when properly toasted you could light a cigar with just about any flame.I have lit cigars using a branch from a camp fire. As long as you do not draw the flame through the cigar.Thus introducing said chemicals.Just my personal experience.Since introducing 70% beads and a 72% Boveda pack. My 50 count has stayed for the most part at a perfect 65% for over a year now.Saying goodbye to all burn issues.Quality smokes stored in proper conditions lit properly will not dissapoint.100 ct on the way and will be outfitted the same.
BigT.... you git the nail on the head and said it in a much more eloquent way than I did, way to go buddy! Had never thought about lighting and THEN cutting the cap, but that is a great idea man! I think you wrapped up this issue perfectly, thank you!
Wow, this really opened up an interesting discussion, great info, guys. So, I think I got this solved pretty well at this point. I wasn't toasting fully, and I'm much better with a torch than matches. I tend to light a bit lopsided with matches. Rotating and taking the band off probably helps as well. I got a great light and burn on a LHC dos capas last night and had a great smoke. Thanks everyone for all the info!!
I guess I'm too lazy for the rotating stuff so I made shelves for my coolidor out of 1/4 inch hardware cloth (wire mesh) and I put a small muffin-type fan out of a computer and hooked it to a timer to run the fan periodically and move the air around in the coolidor. Seems to work just fine for me.

I've been thinking of doing something along those lines. I've been trying to find an Oust fan to set up in mine... but no luck. Guess I'll have to order one off the internet...
If you're interested, I think I've got another of those fans out in my shop somewhere. I believe it runs on 13v DC but will work on less - as will most any DC motor. Let me know if you want it.

Thank you very much for the offer. I've actually got access to a fan, I just don't know how to wire it and program it on a timer... that's why I was thinking the oust fan would prob work better for me...?
Give me the specifics of the one you have and I'll shoot you a sketch of how to wire it and hook it up. Mainly, I'll need the voltage and size. Is it AC or DC?, etc.
