I have this alarm clock.

If I use a lighter similar to this: (pressurized gas lighter) http://www.amazon.com/Weber-WE...-Lighter/dp/B00025LR00
...while lighting a candle next to the clock, the clock resets. The lighter is six or seven inches away from any delicate electronics in the clock. Even crazier to me is the fact that the clock won't reset if I unplug it.
What the hell is going on? I'm pretty sure it's not a function of heat, but relates to proximity of the gas. If I leave my candle burning next to the clock nothing happens.
