The BMW Lighter is a handheld naphtha-type fire starter. It prominently displays the logo of BMW, an abbreviation of “Bayerische Motoren Werke” (Bavarian Motor Works), a German company and manufacturer of automobiles and motorcycles. When the lighter was first introduced on Homestar Runner, a "real world" BMW lighter was unavailable as The Brothers Chaps attest to on the DVD commentary for "dragon." There are now several styles of BMW lighter available.
It resembles a Zippo brand lighter, a kind of lighter that flips open and lights with the flick of a wheel.
A variation on this gag appears in portrait: Homestar Runner uses a SAAB Lighter.
