Ashai Pentax Butane Lighter / Working 

I believe it was made for the propane-powered prototype of the
first-year Spotmatics. Those were never marketed outside Japan -- some
problem with too much heat near the processor chip. The following year
they went to battery power, removed the chip, and began selling
Spotmatics abroad. The rest is history.
