It may seem like junk but your abandoned lighter still has uses you may not even consider! Check out the video below to see that a lighter is not done until it's taken apart and even then there may be even more you can do with it!

It’s really great to know that even when we think a survival item is at its end we can still use it! As long as the lighter has a spark a fire can be made and, as Lilly said, a fire is one of the most important things you will need when living in the wilderness! It not only keeps you warm and cooks your food but if it can keep predators away, you know it is a must have!

So, the next time you are ready to toss that lighter into the garbage you might want to hang onto it and do your own experiment, seeing if it still has practical applications. Learn this trick and who knows what you can salvage next!
