how does this make sense? Its a plastic lighter 
but I still want one.
Funny thing.
I'm interested with the cheap plastic one but thats also where my concerns are.
Well, yeah, if you want to get into the "long story" part. Point is though that lighters with plastic parts aren't new.
For some reason, I felt that we may need to get into the 'long story' part of this. ;)
Plastic lighters are the Devil's tool!
Nah, the Devil's tool is probably one of your hands. I don't know which. Hell (get it!), maybe it's both.
(Ut ohs, I may have been a li'l offensive with that'n.
)What if I hate myself after doing it?
Then you're Catholic and/or Mormon?
A plastic jigger I didn't see any evidence of that.
They have bulletproof plastic these days, I'm sure they can make plastics that can resist the minor heat that comes from a lighter as well.
are you serious? never mind then
a plastic lighter has metal parts.
A plastic jigger I didn't see any evidence of that.
... Did you entirely miss that the part where you put the cigarette in to light is metal? It looks like a miniature cigarette lighter like you'd find in a car.

Dood. It's charged through a USB connection. Charged. This, of course, indicates the need for some conductive material or other. Plastic, so far as I know, isn't often touted for its conductive properties. As they obviously need some conductor or another and as a conductor is required to handle energy, one would assume they'd have access to a suitable material for the business end of the thing as well. In other words, it ain't all plastic.
(Excluding vehicles, of course... unless you meant those, in which case I'm not sure)
I think the future of armor (bullet-proofing) is ceramics.
Well, probably combinations of ceramics and other material.
Also, reactive armor systems seem to be "in" now.
But I think certain tactics makes reactive armor moot. What happens if a barrage of ATGMs are fired at a tank with reactive armor? Once the reactive armor diminshes the first strike, whats left to stop the rest?
I think the future of armor is not getting shot at... we seem to be going in that direction a lot already
You have no sense of adventure.

Cool link.
I have heard of this before, but as the article points out, it is too brittle.

I do have one, but it's generally supressed by my sense of reality, which says that getting shot at is best avoided.
Regardless; there's plenty of time and money invested in things that avoid you from getting shot at or hit at all, so it's not that far off a suggestion I think. Including stuff like missile distractors (chaffs? or what're those things called?) and other such electronic counter measures.

Reality? Meh... you'll never make it out alive.

Sadly, the cost of such things would it it out of the hands of most soldiers and police officers. As for the general public being able to get its hands on something like this...

That's the base assumption, isn't it?

Give it time, it will become affordable soon enough.

Give me a few decades, a budget, and a thousand hamster wheels, and I'll see what I can do.

I like that they are now making body armor out of the skin of dragons.

Try to find the company website. They are gone.
