After a site installs an Ozilite Automatic Cigarette Lighter… |
| There is always a concern about the availability of naked flames on site. |
The major source of naked flames on the site has been removed. |
| There is always a concern that lighters could be anywhere; that they were always "available" and could be used to light fires. |
No concerns about matches and lighters being freely distributed and misused. |
| There is always a concern that lighters are being used to melt plastic items such as toothbrushes, which could then be used as screwdrivers or weapons. |
Fewer concerns that plastic items are being fabricated into screwdrivers to use against staff as a weapon. |
| Limited control over where and when prisoners smoke. |
Total control over where and when prisoners smoke. |
| A high risk of riots starting from prisoners in retaliation to a ban on smoking. |
There is no problem to have smoking in a prison when you can control the availability of where and when. |
| Damage to prison cells and equipment from naked flames. |
A significant reduction in the amount of damage to prison cells and equipment from a naked flame. |
| Suicide attempts from the misuse of lighters or matches. |
Elimination of suicide attempts involving cigarette lighters or matches. |
| Attempts to use cigarette lighters as weapons, even emptying the fluid from several lighters to make up a quantity that could be thrown and ignited. |
Elimination of cigarette lighters or matches being used as weapons. |
| Prison Officers carrying lighters in high security areas where it was not needed. |
The removal of lighters and matches makes the environment much safer and the prison Officers are better off. |
| Prisoners frustrated at the delays to lighting a cigarette, or the wait for the canteen to open to purchase lighters. |
Morale of prisoners is improved; they can light their own cigarettes when they have access and don't have to wait for Officers. |
| Officers wasted alot of time lighting the cigarettes, eg. In high security unlocking doors; a second Officer monitoring and so forth. |
Much less wasted time and officers are not exposed to the risk of lighting the cigarettes for high security risk prisoners. |
