From my understanding you are allowed one lighter in your carry on. I had two one time and had to throw one out.

Along the same lines, lots of companies make sunscreen in 10x ml quantities for the associated benefits. When the agent wanted to take away my 106 ml bottle, I asked if I could squeeze 6 ml out and take it on. No dice.

Hold the flame of one lighter up to the fuel tank of another, creating a small explosion?
