ABSTRACT An electric cigar lighter of the type having a socket part and an igniting unit plug part which is removable from the socket part and which carries an electrical heating element. Means are provided for carrying current to the heating element, and a switch is connected to the current carrying means, including a pair of relatively movable engaging and disengaging contact surfaces. One of the surfaces is continuous and uninterrupted aluminum, whereas the other surface is constituted of a metal selected from the group consisting of silver and copper. The advantage of the present invention over the cigar lighters of the prior art is that improved contact life is realized, due to the tendency for the contacts to resist degeneration from arcing or pitting. In addition, the tendency for the contacts to become welded together is greatly minimized.
