Yes, really. Pretty much any time you can visibly see an arc through the air it’s in the thousands of volts range. A shock from your fingertips can be up to 15+ kV, but very low current

Please ignore user village604, they clearly don’t know what they’re talking about when they said electric arc lighters are supposedly harmless.
They are most certainly not harmless, in fact they’re as dangerous, if not more, than a regular lighter.
