Cheapy Lighter Laser Burner

Step 7Install the Laser circuit

Install the Laser circuit
After confirming that everything is wired correctly, it's time to put everything inside the lighter housing. The diode goes on the former flame side and the switch is pushed in to the side where the red button switch was (See the next step for details). I used hot glue to secure the switch and diode after lining up the diode so the beam cleared all areas of the housing.

I reckon so. Do it in small steps and don't inhale the fumes. I would not be suprised if you could light the lighter itself on fire this way, though, so give it plenty of time to cool between blasts.
