Disposable lighter

A disposable lighter, also known as ¥100 lighter in Japan, is, as its name suggests, is a non-refillable lighter that normally uses butane for fuel. Such lighters are popular in Asian nations because of their low price (¥100) and durability. Lighters come in transparent or opaque colours and may be further decorated with an adhesive decal.
