Is a lighter effective because it’s on fire? Or just because it’s hot?

If you made a lighter that was just as hot as another lighter, would it work just as well even if it had no fire?

      I think it’s the more uneven burn. It’s got an articulating neck type thing so it’ll get into a bowl just fine it just doesn’t want to light it, and joints it just kinda fucks up the end and maybe gets a half-assed light.
