what kind of butane do you use?

[zemekone]

I use Lava and X-Tend...

you?

[Da Klugs]

With some lighters it's a great big deal. Others, not so much. My blazer i think would run on refined vegetable oil. :)

[poker]

Nothing but Lava here :D

[croatan]

Lava is my first choice, but I'll use King or Vector, too.

[tech-ninja]

I have some Vector. Haven't run out yet. I will have to try Lava

[skeeter]

Vector and Lava here.

[txdyna65]

Vector here, I dont think I'll try putting Stewarts Lava in any of my lighters :rolleyes:

[Redbaron]

Colibri fuel or Vector

[Dandee]

Depends on the lighter. I find that cheap lighters like cheap fuel. My Ronsons don't like the quituple refined stuff like Vector.

Ronson for Cheaper Lighters
Vector for Good lighters

[Darrell]

It's a shame that Lava went bankrupt and is currently doing a reorganization of their business. I hope to see them back real soon. :tu

[chippewastud79]

Lava :tu

[Ace$nyper]

Never tried the lava, but I use Colibri myself since I have so many cans I got as a gift.

[Mugen910]

Ronson...but uhm...Greg Dunn keeps laughing at me with a bottle of 3x refined Vector in his hand. :(

[VirtualSmitty]

Lava. Gotta have good fuel for my super classy Ronson ;)

[Stogeyfish]

Lava! :tu

[Sean9689]

Whichever one doesn't screw up my lighters.

[Big Vito]

Vector here, I dont think I'll try putting Stewarts Lava in any of my lighters :rolleyes:

I hope that isn't the only thing you keep out.
I use anything Ronson don't care

[smokin5]

Vector do me good.:tu

[lightning9191]

I use Lava, but I'm still working on my first cans....those are big cans!

[The Professor]

i used to use vector; but i'm switching to lava now that I'm almost out. I've heard it can raise animals from the dead. :D

[awsmith4]

i used to use vector; but i'm switching to lava now that I'm almost out. I've heard it can raise animals from the dead. :D

:tpd: I use Vector but have a problem with the nozzles fitting my PB-207 so I will try Lava next

Da Klugs sporting the Da Bio-Blazer! I want one when it comes to market.

I really only carry a Colibri these days, so it get's whatever butane in a can is handy. If it starts to spit and choke, I empty it and fill again.

[Mikepd]

Colibri is my goto fuel since thats what we have here. I can also get lotus but since its the same exact stuff in a shinier can for twice the cost i pass on that.

[BlackIrish]

I'd been using Colibri until I heard of Lava on some forum or other. Haven't picked any up yet, as I still have some Colibri left.

Do you notice a difference? How so?

BlackIrish

[madurolover]

Since I use a Ronson lighter I just use Ronson fuel in it. :tu

[md4958]

since ive been using lava, ive had no problems with any of my lighters

[Benwoo]

I ended up buying some Xikar butane when I did my big CI run last month. I've been using some freebie lighters sent out with my order so that's probably more of the problem then the fuel.

[field]

Just killed a can of King, worked fine, got a new one of Lava.

[TheRealJason]

Yeah, I am stuck on the cheapies now too. I did pick up one at a liquor store that works pretty well though. It is a single flame, but lights everytime.

I had some Ronson laying around, that I used to fill up my freebie at first, but I have been filling it up with Vector each time after that.

[bobarian]

Lava or Vector. I like flamethrowers!

[kfish]

I've been using Colibri but I'm gonna try Lava as soon as the Colibri can runs out.

kfish

[slimm]

Never heard of Lava (other than soap). I have been using Vector.

[ucla695]

Vector and Lava all the way.

[TriStar]

Colibri here. I'll buy their fuel but not their lighters :D

[dunng]

Vector... one even made the trip to the MassHERF! :ss

[Neuromancer]

Vector...and for the finicky lighters Colibri...

[MTB996]

Lava here, but I am running low and have a can of Xikar to take over.

[Sailchaser]

Lava and Vector here:ss

[BamBam]

Vector :tu

[NCRadioMan]

Another Vector guy here.

[groogs]

Nothing but Lava here :D

:tpd: Works great.

[FriskyDingo]

Used to use Lava but have recently been using Prometheus fluid. Works great in my Blazer and Tigers!

[Boobar]

Vector for me

[Big Vito]

maybe I should ditch the colibri

[pakrat]

Lucienne when at home, the small can Colibri for road trips and camping.

[Dood]

Cheap old Ronson fuel is all I use. My Ronson's and my Blazer seem to work great with it.

[King James]

vector is my butane of choice

[Dgar]

Vector... I can pick it up cheap at the local William Sonoma. It keeps my X-tend very happy.

[drob]

King Universal, for about 2 yrs now. No problems in my Blazer.

[cre8v1]

I use vector. Haven't had any problems at all.

[gnukfu]

I have only used Colibri - seems to catch fire and burn - gonna see if I can get some jet fuel from work - I don't think that will impart any flavor to the cigars hehehe

[longknocker]

Vector Triple Refined. Never had a problem when using this!:ss

[taltos]

I am now using Vector since I forgot to order more Lava on my last Atlantic order.

[STYX&STONED]

Have some vector but been using Lava some years now.

[Bruzee]

Vector or Colibri.....

[GWN]

Colibri, but I just ran out, so whatever I can find today.

[TOB9595]

Colibri, Xikar, Vector...
No experience with Lava
Tom

[SilverFox]

Vector Triple in all my lighters............although they all seem to be empty at once lately :D

[Silound]

I use Ronson Butane in my JetLites, and it works fine. Never a problem to be spoken of, other than me brutalizing it with a wood chipper once.

For my good lighters, I use Colibri or Blazer fuel, as both are triple refined and are fairly cheap.

[Pat1075]

colibri

[Waynegro1]

LAVA, five times refined. This is the ONLY type I use and I love it!!

[bigloo]

Colibri or Blazer fuel. Both seem to work great in my all my torch lighters.

[md4958]

Lava. used to use colibri, but i have better performance from the Lava

[rhythm11]

I use 5x lava, I have not used Vector but just sent some to someone in a bomb, :r:r . I used one can of Colibri, as it can with a lighter purchase. It just didn't last that long, so I haven't bought anymore.

[Celt]

I bought some Lava from Atlantic when I ordered my Blazer lighter but man I cannot seem to find one of the nozzle adapters that work well.
No matter what I do I get the crap all over my hands while its filling up.

Anyone else notice this problem? I thought I must be a dumb ass or something that I cant fill my lighter without soaking myelf with butane!

:fl

[TripleF]

ZIPPO here.
