<p>An igniter using a liquid fuel, capable of securing the combustion characteristics which meet what is demanded by an igniter, by sucking the liquid fuel by a combustion wick, burning the liquid fuel at a free end portion of the wick and restricting a saturation flame length while securing an initial flame length and a later increase in the flame length, wherein inner cotton (3) impregnated with a liquid fuel comprising mainly alcohol is stored in a bottom portion of a fuel tank (2) with an upper space (2a) formed in the same fuel tank (2), a part of a surface of the combustion wick (6) in which a suction portion (62) contacts the inner cotton (3) to suck the liquid fuel by a capillary phenomenon and burn the same at a combustion portion (61) is exposed to the upper space (2a), whereby the fuel supply capacity is restricted.</p> |
