In Canada, kitchen counter plugs were wired as split duplex receptacles. The top plug was wired as a different circuit than the bottom. The tab connecting the two hot screws on the side of the plug was broken. Not only were they on different circuits but they had to be on different phases, which means there was 240V between them. This allowed a single common neutral wire to be used to reduce the quantity of conductors. Looking back this seems a bit sketchy. The code changed a few years back.
From what I have read, modern wire can last up to 100 years. Anything made before About sometime in the 1960s does not last as long and should all be replaced if not already.

Iv notice he didn't use any foam weather strip on the bottom i would have used foam around the unit to keep bugs and hot air out on my accordion panels i put 1/2 thick styrofoam on the inside and duck taped it so far so good.
Man o man. There are a lot of "how to use" videos on these lighters. This is not one of them. First of all they were intended to light pipes and cigs in windy conditions. That's where they work best because the wind actually helps with these rather than snuffing them out like most other options. They are also incredibly easy to start a fire with--if you know how to start a fire properly. Another thing, and this is not noted in any of the videos I have seen, the knot is not there just "to save some space". It has a purpose. It should be a slip knot. After you light your pipe, you pull the cord down into the tube to snuff it out, then you slide the knot up to the bottom and it effectively locks the cord in the tube so that it can't come out and potentially slide back out when you put it in your pocket. The benefit of that should be obvious. I'm 65, a sailor and a pipe smoker. I was shown how to use one of these when I was about 9 years old by a friend of my father that use to go fishing with us. He used it in the Korean war. He had a rope lighter that he made and it had a really cool top that he made with a fishing fly, which included a metal ball to seal the top.
Oh, and though not absolutely necessary, it is easier if it is prepped first with another flame source because that leaves behind carbon deposits, which make subsequent lights much easier and more uniform.
This worked great. I had to dig out some epoxy that made its way into my sink before hitting the button. But I had no clue about the button. LOVE THE BUTTON!
