I understand your pain . I recently bought a couple of Ronsons and also notice it takes a while to light a cigar with them . I have a Blazer PB-207 and a Blazer Z-Plus insert for my Zippo and both light cigars quickly . There is a member here that has a site called www.cigarmony.com that he sells these and several other lighters . Mark is his name . Check his site out . Ships fast and has quality stuff .

Don't get me wrong for $2.97 I can't complain, but I would like a better lighter. I was wondering if anyone uses double or triple torch. I've seen some videos of cigar reviews with people using triple torches and it takes a few seconds to get the cigar lit. Any recommendations and thoughts appreciated.
I've had a Blazer for 3 months. I'm a sworn fan. The fuel tank is so huge or the mechanism that uses the fuel is so efficient that I have yet had the need to put more fuel in it. This week, I attempted to fill it thinking it had to be low, and it only allowed 3 seconds before it was done.
It lights every time, first time.
This is a winner and worth the $50.

I have some kind of Xixar double flame that a buddy gave me. I really like this lighter, especially for lighting smokes outside. I just have to be careful to not scorch the wrapper when I use it

For some reason every pricey lighter I've ever owned won't light consistently, gets lost, or is too bulky. I've stuck with Ronsons for some time now as I can't seem to lose them, they always light, and they're the perfect size to carry around.

It's crazy that a $4 lighter is more dependable than it's $35-40 counterpart.

And I use $2.98 Ronson fuel in all of them.
