Elipse Question

[smokinpoke]

I have recently bought an elipse. One thing I have noticed (without the duh factor) is that after trying to light a cigar the top becomes extremely hot.

Is there a way to shield some of this heat?

Thanks

Robert, I would suggest keeping the flame lit in only about 4 second bursts. Any more than that and your lighter will guaranteed get very hot. Try it out - I bet the cigar lights, it just might take a 30 seconds longer.
