Lucifer is a sleek “matchbook” that automatically lights your match as you pull it from its housing. Many criticize products like this for being useless. “What’s wrong with an old-fashioned matchbook?” they squabble. Maybe it’s just me, but I’ve singed my ’stache more times than I’d like to admit while trying to fire up the grill. Perhaps I shouldn’t leave the gas on while trying to light my matches. Or maybe I just need a fail-safe match lighting device like the Lucifer! And no, there’s no way I’m tossing my zippo onto the grill (or using one of those fancy long-nose grill lighters or chimney matches)! Hush!

Lucifer was created by Feel Addicted, the one-man design shop run by 24 year old French designer Clement Eloy. Eloy has an impressive array of products in his portfolio and also happens to be an extremely talented photographer. Head to his site to see his work; it rocks!
