US Patent 10222063 Waterproof lighter case

A case for a lighter including a removable cap and elongated body sleeve is described herein. Placing the cap on the elongated body sleeve creates a waterproof seal that protects the components of the lighter inside of the case and prevents exposure of the lighter to moisture that may damage components or prevent proper functioning of the lighter. The case can prevent inadvertent activation of the gas button and can also provide a gas lock strap for selectively activating and maintaining activation of the gas button. The case and cap can include features for increasing grip on the lighter as well as removably coupling the case to a lanyard, key ring, or other means of retention.
