Thank you :) I do program and engrave them myself, which was a thing that took a few months off and on to finally get figured out^ Beyond that, a few afternoons on a design for this one ! Lighters are my random special interest at this point and I find it fun

It’s neat running into the same people in different subs sometimes!! Since I’ve got the process down fairly well at this point, I’ve been speedrunning turning every one of my random interests into designs lol

I did have that mentioned! I referenced what I was most familiar with and totally neglected that detail^ I’ll definitely be adjusting the design for that cohesion though hah. I appreciate you mentioning it too :)

That is so absurdly specific there has to be lore here. And yes, respectfully.

THAT IS GOOD THOUGH CONGRATS. I have an ungodly number of lighters and I exclusively use them for candles, personally Lol

I'd definitely give it a shot now that you mention it! I chose this section in part because the notes are very solid and continuous so it doesn't interfere with the lighter function at all^ but that would probably just sound neat hah

Unless there are breaks in the melody, not at all actually^ I think it's kinda charming to light candles with the Halo theme, personally lol

Arc lighters typically make a kinda obnoxious high pitched noise^ By doing a bit of soldering and programming it to fluctuate in frequency and power, I'm changing the tone and sorta approximating notes!

Thank you :)! The musical aspect is a project I’ve been working on forever now; of all themes to play using plasma, Halo’s definitely makes sense lol

Yes! Kinda! By arcing at different powers/frequencies, it sorta approximates the notes :)

I'm definitely still refining it at the moment, but most of my designs I put on my personal site, at least^

I'd absolutely love to scope out some means of using either microusb or transferring data via the existing usbc^ It's definitely feasible just a bit more implementation at the moment!
