Back in July we told you about some cool Pac-Man lighters that celebrate the 30th anniversary of the yellow dot-gobbler. But now we have word that there are more awesome designs being offered.

This limited-edition series of Zippo lighters from Banpresto includes shiny, butane-filled versions of Pac-Man,(Which we’ve seen) along with Galaxian, Xevious and Dig Dug. Each features the likeness of the classic 8-bit game. Even if you don’t smoke, you’ll want these awesome collectibles.

Now and then we find ourselves covering lighters. Maybe because they have an unusual shape, feature video game characters or in this case because they are in the form of a Sega Mega Drive and a Sega Saturn.

Through November 6, retailer Net-You is taking pre-orders on these beautiful Sega Hard Memorial Zippo Lighters made by Banpresto for about $115 each through November 6th. They ship in December.

Lately we’ve been seeing all kind of gadget cases in chocolate form. And to top them all, here’s a Chocolate cigarette case. It combines two bad habits in one. When you have a craving for some chocolate, just have a smoke and when you need a smoke just focus on the chocolate.

This novelty silicone chocolate bar case will hold a standard sized 20-cigarette pack. The sweet tobacco will melt in your mouth and stick to your lungs, while the chocolate won’t melt in your hands. It retails for £7.99, but it’s such a crazy combo I can’t see them selling many.

Lighters are so bulky. They don’t match your cigarettes at all. At least they didn’t. Now they do. At least this one does. It’s a refillable butane lighter in the shape of a cigarette. Wow people at parties as you light a cigarette with a cigarette.

The obvious advantage here is that this lighter will fit easily into your pack of cigarettes. It’s only $1.50, so you could buy several and impress all of your friends. Assuming they are easily impressed by such things.

There are not nearly enough lighters for gamers, so we were stoked to see these 30th anniversary Pac-Man lighters. These Zippos don’t just slap Pac-Man onto the outside either. They feature three pretty awesome designs.

We really dig No. 1 and 2. Our only problem with them is that it took 30 years to give us some awesome Pac-Man lighters. The actual 30th anniversary is next year, but it looks like we are off to a good start.

If the Terminator movies have taught us anything, it’s that Judgment day is coming, so smoke ‘em if you’ve got ‘em. And there’s no better way to light up than with this Terminator Salvation Fuel Cell Lighter. See, there’s a Nuclear Fuel Cell embedded in the chest of every Terminator.

This one happens to double as a lighter. Which would be perfect for Arnold Schwarzenegger since he’s a Terminator and also likes the cigars. Just don’t go tossing this thing while driving, like Arnold did in T3, unless you like mushroom clouds.

Most smokers own a cigarette lighter that does one thing. Light cigarettes. But now you are in the 21st century. Hows about a lighter that does 3 things? This gadget-lighter will still provide a flame, but it will also act as an air purifier and perfume dispenser.

I guess the idea is to light up, then purify the air, then perfume it. It’s like you and your cig were never there. You have just become a ninja. For $54.99 you’ll also get a car charger. Why do I get the feeling this doesn’t work as advertised?

Lighters are great and all, but they are too prone to fail. Typical lighters can run out of fuel, or the flint may need to be replaced. Once they get wet, that’s it. That’s not good if you need to use it in an emergency. Sometimes you need a more rugged lighter. Like the Brunton Helios Stormproof Lighter.

Priced at $49, it has a windproof adjustable high-temp flame that can withstand winds up to 80mph. Its Piezo electric switch provides up to 30,000 ignitions. And when the lid is closed, Helios is completely waterproof. It refills using the Brunton FuelTool which costs around $12. That’s probably the only downside.

Here’s a gadget from Zippo that sure would come in handy this holiday weekend. It’s bound to be perfect for camping or just lighting the grill, especially in the dark. The Zippo OUL (Outdoor Utility Lighter) will cost you $22 and features a wind-resistant dual flame and built-in LED light. The 8-inch-tall not-so-typical Zippo lighter also has an adjustable flame dial, water-resistant cap, metal construction, and comes with clip and strap. After you light the grill and enjoy the day, then use it to light candles at night. Hopefully the kind that ward off insects.

How do you light a fire under a geek? With a nicely detailed computer keyboard lighter of course. Ask any geek if he smokes and he’ll probably say something witty like, “Only when I overclock my Xbox and fry the mainboard.”, followed by an asthma tinged laugh and a puff on his inhaler.

Well, for those geeks who want to show off a little while lighting up, these keyboard lighters are the ticket. They’re roughly the size of a standard Bic lighter and have some awesome detail. You can get them in 6 different colors or with black or white keys. They’re refillable, not disposable. Looks like they are only in the UK at the moment unfortunately.

This lighter isn’t really new technology but I ran across it today and thought it was pretty cool, and I don’t even have any real need for a lighter. If I did need a lighter however, I think this might be the ticket.

No longer do you have to flick your lighter manually and run the risk of wearing out or worse yet, damaging those precious gaming thumbs. This lighter from Colibri has a photoelectric sensor beam incorporated into the lighter that signals the flames ignition. When you flip open the lid a visible red beam appears, then by simply breaking the light beam with your finger the lighter automatically ignites. The lighter flame runs on butane that can be replaced and the ignition is battery powered.
