Review - Bugatti B-1 Torch Lighter

Bill86 · 08-24-2010, 03:02 AM

This was a $10 upgrade and still is for several cigar packages on CI. So I dipped, I just have to say..Great lighter.

Haven't tried the punch on it, sure it probably isn't great but the lighter itself is really practical in design. It cannot light in your pocket due to a cover that blocks the "trigger" on it. Flip the cap and press on the side and you got a precise long flame. Very comfortable in hand and smooth. My only complaint is they do scratch easy but again cosmetically I don't care because it cost $10. Much better than a ronson jet-lite, I do have one but I don't care for it much.

Edit if anyone wants pictures of the lighter and whatnot I will post them.

Now I'll just need to get a good cutter

I have 2 of these and love them. The punch does ok, but I have never seen a lighter attached punch that works wonderful.

old thread I know, but if anyone knows of a way to fill these lighters and not have to do it every two days, let me know, I must be doing it wrong!

Not sure if this is the issue, but make sure to bleed the lighter once it is no longer producing a flame. Take a toothpick with a flat end (or something like that - anything to push the stem down will do) and press on the stem that you push your can of butane into to refill the lighter. Hold the stem down until you cannot hear it hiss anymore - that drains out all of the excess air and leaves room for more fuel. Refill and enjoy.

My neighbor has this lighter and the punch ring came loose and falls out of the bracket.
I was going to buy this one until that happened. It is nice though.

That's funny, I've had this lighter for a while and it works well, never used the punch until today (couldn't find my other one) and this happened. Good lighter, don't use the punch.

just bought one of these on free fall bid and got it for $19. Anyway hope it puts an end to my collection of fancy non working lighters.
