Explore the engineering of a car cigarette lighter through industrial CT scans, revealing an efficient analog design that operates without digital components.
This is an ad for something CT-scan-related, but it contains a good breakdown of how an old car cigarette lighter works. And it has a couple interactive CT Scan explorers past the video.

You used to be able to get a special dispenser that would hand you a lit cigarette as you drove.

“...a built-in cigarette case which “hands” you a cigarette at the [unintelligible] of a convenient lever.”
Really disappointed that's all that link had... No pictures or illustrations, not even a proper description :/
This one has images and a diagram. So you pull the lever on the bottom and on top a cigarette will be Pezzed out. Here's the car it was installed in. Didn't find anything about it being lit though.
Found it in the Popular Mechanics issue.A "smoke."
I wanted a video, but couldn't find one.
No image or diagram? What's the point of going to the trouble of writing an article of solely words about something most people have never seen before?
Was the auto play auto focus video ad not enough of a motivator?
"motivator"? I'm sorry, what am I supposed to be motivated to do?
check the thread. Other people are smarter than us.
