About Constellation Pakete ng Lighter
Ang Constellation ay isang limited edition na disenyo ng pakete para sa mga collectible na lighter. Ang pakete ay lumiliwanag sa pamamagitan ng maliliit na tuldok sa ibabaw nito, at ang mga ilaw ay maaaring buksan nang isa-isa upang bumuo ng iba't ibang zodiac sign. Sa pagtatapos ng epekto, ang mga ilaw ay dahan-dahang lumalabo at lumiliwanag. Ang light effect ay maaaring i-recharge gamit ang USB cable at tumatagal ng labindalawang oras kapag puno ang charge. Ang mga lighter ay nakakapit sa panloob na pakete sa pamamagitan ng mga magnet, kaya ang kahon ay maaari ring gamitin bilang display. May nakatagong triangular na bar na nakatiklop sa likod na maaaring ilabas upang patayuin ang pakete. Papel ang pangunahing materyal na ginamit.
