Compact 8 cm or large 11 cm jet lighter: which one fits the job?

By M.T.T. Hardware, Sampheng · Published · Updated

The M.T.T. Lion jet lighter comes in two models. Both use a jet head and both refill with butane. What actually differs is body size, the colour range, and how many pieces come in a box. This page lays out all three, then says which job suits which model.

How much bigger is the large one?

Common questions

What's the difference between the compact and the large?

Mainly body size. The compact is 8 cm with a keychain; the large is 11 cm and holds more gas simply because the tank is bigger. Both use a jet head and both refill with butane.

What colours do they come in?

Five each. Compact: orange, green, light blue, purple, yellow. Large: orange, red, yellow, green, dark blue.

Can I mix models in one order?

Yes. There's no minimum order: a single piece, a pack, or full boxes of both models all work. Send the quantities on LINE and we'll put it together.

If I'm reselling, which do I start with?

Start with the compact if you like, since it costs less per piece and gives more pieces per box, then add the large model once you see which size your customers ask for. The resale maths is in the wholesale guide.
