The Lighter Thread

[s15driftking]

Hey,

I was just browsing ebay and saw some really cool looking torch lighter and fugired i'd come here to ask if anyone knew and e-site where i could purchase one because this one was the only one i found on ebay. So i searched here for a thread with similar likings and found nothing.

I figured people could use this thread as a utility to discuss lighters, post pics, help identify, and find out "where to get" certain pieces that they were looking for.

[s15driftking]

I will start. I just tried to bid on this one but i lost. Does anyone kow where i can just buy one of these puppies?

http://www.cigarmony.com/ has a nice selection of lighters. I think they posted a 5-10% discount code on this or another cigar forum too.

I'd be hesitant on buying a lighter on Ebay unless it's a no-name an priced right, or from a bonafied retailer if going high end. The Dunhill Trench Torch lighter has been the nicest torch lighter I have tried, but you pay for it.

Blazers are always good. I love my pb207. Also, Vectors are great, I've got a thundra. That thing is amazing

Did you try ebay?

yeah, i actually bid on that very one and lost. so i'm deff. in the market for one.

[md4958]

it doenst seem like that rocket ship would be very comfy in the pocket. I own a few cheapies and one of the Evertorches that they are having a GB on right now.

For pure functionality, looks aside I would have to recommend a Blazer... I dont own one, but have used several. They are great, always light, and have a huge fluid tank

[s15driftking]

Yeah, i have a ronson and a colibri... the ronson was 1/15th the cost of the colibri and works magnificently.

I guess i'm just really into novelty lighters. i want to see whats out there.

Ditto that as there is a ton on Ebay,,,even Ronson specialty lighters with different emblems on them. I actually picked up two more Ronsons at WallyWorld today because they had them,,,about 8 of them but only took the 2,,,I have about 10 of them now and I am still using the very first one I got and it works first time every time.

Is that a lighter in your pocket or are you just glad to ...... :r

The Blazer PB 207 Rocks :ss

I love mine too! It's great and can used for spot welding. :D

My Extend is also a solid lighter. It has served me well for the past three years. I've never had much luck with Colibris though. I have two that have gone caput.

Prefer my Blazer PB207 for cigars.
Prefer my Dupont Linge II's for everything else

[Starchild]

I picked up a cheap benzomatic torch that I like to use when I'm home

Other than that I've got a Ronson and I've enjoyed the triple flame torch I got from Taboo

The Ronson was a gift, and the others were less than $5. There are too many cigars I want to be spending a bunch on a lighter.

[Buckeye Jack]

Per JPH, lots of novelty lighters, and practical ones too:

The top will get in your way as you try to toast the foot and its gonna get hot as hell.

my ronson does basically the same thing because of the flip top... im used to being pissed off for that very reason! hehe

[smitdavi]

Just get a PB207 and your set...you will have no need for another lighter

Agreed, I have one and love it!!!!

[sli38]

I have a Lotus LS500 that is the best lighter i've had.......I wish I could find the dam thing.....I misplaced it somewhere.

[ChINaMaN1472]

I love IM Corona lighters, but they're a bit pricey. They've got a forever warranty; if it ever breaks just send it in and it'll get shipped back fixed no questions asked. I've had one for two years with no problems and it's my everyday lighter.

[eber]

I have heard all the negative reviews of the colobri lighters, however I have never heard anything about their flint soft flame lighters, there are some cheap online and I am thinking about getting one. Does anyone have any experience with them?

[OLS]

Got to second the Ronson "Jet-lite" series at Walmartz for 3 bucks each. If you can find em, on the "smoker's aisle" where they send the scumbags. They work and work and work and work and work and work.

[s15driftking]

^^^ I was smoking at a local pub's heated patio on Sat. night and some guy was making fun (funning around) about my 3 dollar lighter and how i should go buy a more expensive one that will outlast a stupid little 3 dollar lighter. HE recommended that i buy a colibri (hahaha) because it would CERTAINLY outlast my 3 dollar Ronson...

I proceeded to shut him up by taking 7 minutes out of my life and to light the Ronson 157 times (before it ran out of fluid) continuously without skipping a beat.
