Smart Lighter Will Help You Quit Smoking

A new Internet-connected lighter called Quitbit will light your cigarette, but let you know about the count of cigarettes you smoked. Gives you a conscience about how many of those cancer sticks you smoked already.A new Kickstarter campaign called Quitbit takes the same monitoring principles embedded into fitness trackers and helps users track and cutdown on smoking. In a nod to the name.

The product, which launched on Monday and is seeking $50,000 in funding pledges, is a pocket lighter that uses a heating coil similar to what’s found in cars. But whether you’re looking to quit or not, the lighter keeps track of every time you light up and logs that data in an accompanying app.
