Object Class: Safe

Special Containment Procedures: SCP - 5970 is to be kept in a fire-retardant room at site-23. Any personnel entering SCP-5970's containment cell are required to wear a flame retardant suit and carry a

Description: SCP - 5970 is a standard zippo lighter, matte black in colour. the lighter is not visibly anomalous.

SCP - 5970's anomalous effect is that it requires no fuel, seemingly burning forever. Tests with SCP -5970 has shown it burning for upwards of 5 hours at a time over multiple tests with no need to refuel.
In addition to SCP-5970 not requiring fuel, it seems that it is not possible to refuel the lighter, as the inner compartment where a regular zippo would be refuelled is sealed to the outer shell of the lighter.

Discovery: SCP-5970 was discovered on 01/12/87, when the Zā–ˆā–ˆā–ˆo company received a returned zippo lighter that wasn't able to be refuelled, and didn't need fuel. The SCP foundation stepped in and sent the anomalous lighter to site-23 for further testing.
