So you have it in your glove box, the switch gets bumped on, and poof! Your truck goes up in flames. Sound great.

Seems like he has the same chirping birds we have. Maybe just a staged accent.

Gives a whole new meaning to the old phrase:
"Is that a flashlight in your pocket or are you happy to see me."

There are a number of lights out there that are advertised as being hot enough to start a fire. The cheapest one I've seen is over $150 and some run $300. For that money, I can buy a couple really good lights plus a few good fire starters.

Friend of mine had a spotlight for varmint hunting. Threw it in a car and friend threw backpack on top of it. A minute later.....you smell something ? Front seat was on fire. Lucky they caught it when they did.

Had a couple of buddies burn a 4" hole through their pickup seats with Q-Bean spotlights, back when everyone used them to hunt predators and coons... You know, back when hides were worth something. They'd set that light down in the seat still on, and when they got back, there was a big hole burned in it.

The old rechargeable mag lites would start a fire. Seen it happen twice unintentionally when they were left on but the lens end was covered.
