Anyone dropping over $50 on a lighter?I got this for $60 to smoke bongs with. Post your nice classy firemakers. Even an old Zippo will do. I want to see them.I need to adjust the gas throttle with the screwdriver because it's producing too much flame right now.
Yes.

>>18612595>>18612614Those are cool. I've always wanted one of those. The problem with all of these types of things is they're never half as reliable as a Bic or something. They're nice but you have to know how to work them and keep them tuned up and just expect them to light every third or fourth flick. Anything with flint and fluid is going to be the most reliable of the keeper lighter. The clicky ones with gas tend to be touchy and I've never had any jet lighter with any lasting power. Once those decide to go out it's just over. I saw a few Colibri jet cigar lighters for $80 and more that remind me of the space-age weird watches; the kinds that look like Cybertrucks. Having three converging streams of blue fire and other such complications. I bet those are even less reliable. As long as you're seen outside the country club just once firing up a Cuban.
bought this zippo
>>18612625It's a luxury product. It has nothing to do with practicality or reliability.

>>18612913I should be able to light my cigarette with an $80 lighter. You would think that'd be possible.
>>18612625Those gas torch ones are actually very reliable in my experience. Ones that use liquid fuel and wicks are the unreliable ones but they're also the most /fa/ and personally I think things lit with them taste better than gas.
>>18612989These are very good for disposables. The best are Clipper though because you can refill them. I just don't bother with the flints once those are gone. You can refill them once, maybe twice before they won't flick anymore. And then I will leave them next to a candle to utilize the last of the butane.But I'm done with those 50 cent neon green shitters. I'll get a Djeep or Clipper before a Bic now. Still like the mini Bic sometimes.>>18612696Cool. I used to love Zippos when I was a teen. I had a little collection. But the smell and the taste bug me. And you'd never smoke weed with one. Dumbest thing I bought was one of those metal match things that take fluid. I doubt those are very reliable. I never carried it or used it after impulse buying a couple off of some instagram ad during covid. I wasted so much of my free $20,000 covid unemployment on stupid shit. Anyway, if you never bought pic related, don't.
>>18613015Then you learn how to maintain it or send it to the manufacturer or someone else who can. In the meantime you pull your old bic from the drawer and there is no problem.
>>18613022>But the smell and the taste bug me.butane inserts are an option.
