I have this lithium powered electronic lighter and I was initially confused when it wouldn’t light today. Took it inside out of the 40 degrees weather for a few minutes and it worked. Left it outside for a few minutes and same thing it wouldn’t light.
Similar cases where the inexpensive fossil fuel version just works. A $1.59 Bic lighter never fails to light in the cold, but a $20 electronic lithium powered lighter recharged by USB-C cannot perform in the cold and in a situation you’re stranded and need to build a fire in cold (not even sub zero temperatures) weather, you’d freeze to death with this $20 electronic lighter, but a $1.59 Bic could save your life.
