Just apply heat with any clean burning heat source and enjoy.

Though that makes me wonder how an electric lighter would work. Like one of those old car lighters, or an old electric one that plugs into the wall I saw last summer at a yard sale. Really wish I had picked it up.
They work (worked) quite well, after all they were Cigar lighters, tho often called Cigarette lighters. With the now massive ring gauges of so many cigars they might need to scaled up to the size of hotplates.
