After solving a few issues this lighter works great
By Kenneth J. Teicher
I've purchased countless lighters over the years. I hate when the lighter ignition system stops working and there is no way to replace the battery. I searched and found this item and thought someone heard my prayers. I did initially have a few issues and contacted the company about them. For some reason that is unexplained in the instructions, the igniter keeps clicking while the lever is pressed. Pressing in the lever is the only way to keep the flame burning. I discovered that this is how the lighter keeps lit even in windy conditions. The instruction page does not explain anything at all about how the battery is replaced or what battery to use. I was given the wrong information about the battery in the answer to my inquiry. I luckily had a jewelers screwdriver and was able to open the compartment and was able to see the battery number. The instructions state very clearly that you should only use their butane. Every decent lighter I ever purchased said the same thing - only use their butane because it is the best. I Filled the lighter with Zippo 'Premium' butane and the lighter coughs and sputters so I ordered Colibri butane in the hope that it will burn better and smother. After making some adjustments to the flame height, I found the perfect setting and the lighter works great - even as a pipe lighter. My conclusion is that this lighter does, in fact, meet all of my criteria for a great lighter. You don't need their butane, but do have to work with the flame height adjustment a little. It works well in a breeze and best of all, you can easily replace the battery. I don't expect to ever replace this lighter. Unfortunately, the person that responded to my inquiry told me that this particular lighter has been discontinued. I do not know if the company makes any others that have a replaceable battery - they should since they are the only company that I could find that makes one.
