Power Turbo Torch Lighter

I've received 2 of these in the last week and haven't had any problems filling.

Is your butane can possibly low? If so, it may not have enough propellant to create enough pressure to push the butane into the lighter.

If the can is plenty full, try putting the lighter in the freezer for ~30 minutes, and then try filling. Lowering the temperature in the lighter increases the pressure differential between the empty tank and can, improving flow of fuel into the lighter. Without the freezer trick I probably get around 70% fill on these lighters. With the freezer trick I get around 90%.
