Re: Good Lighter with Fuel Window
 

Just bought the new Blazer and I love it. I thought it wasn't going to be worth the $38 bucks because I've had such bad luck with lighters just not working consistently or for more than a very short time. I love this one. I just posted a thread about the safety feature on these, but it's easy to dis-engage and the thing works like a charm first time, every time. Good luck.

I bought a couple of these bad boys... next time I see hotreds, I'm gonna hand a few over for the troops.

Re: Good Lighter with Fuel Window
 

+1 on the element. I love mine!

Re: Good Lighter with Fuel Window
 

Anyone know how much fuel the Xikar lighters hold compared to the Blazer? Or could tell me how many cigars, how long, etc... between refueling?

I tend to refuel the Ronson lighters after two or three cigars.

Re: Good Lighter with Fuel Window
 

depends on how you use it honestly. If you list to toast the foot before starting to draw then you'll prob use a bit more fuel versus drawing on the cigar while being it. It's not expensive to get a bottle of ronson butane and that refill bottle will last quite some time.

Re: Good Lighter with Fuel Window
 

I light cigars without drawing and understand that uses more fuel. But I'm trying not to carry a can of butane everywhere. Don't normally smoke more than three in an outing, so usually two Ronson lighters works.

Re: Good Lighter with Fuel Window
 

I smoke 3 cigars per day on average and I go at least 5 days, usually a week, between filling the Blazer. I love the clear tube that shows how much fuel is left. I too toast the foot first before I draw and have found that this lighter goes a long way before needing a refill.

Ordered 10 of these!... should be coming in the mail in the next day or two... can't wait to try it out! :D

DealExtreme can be slow to ship, usually 10-14 days from Hong Kong.

Re: Good Lighter with Fuel Window
 

Just bought two! Can't wait!

I'm partial to Blazer. Had a CG-001 for about 3-4 years. Travelled with it in my pocket several times. To The carribean and back, out to Vegas, Seattle, and a few others. Only problem is that I killed it trying to clean it. :(

Re: Good Lighter with Fuel Window
 

I have never had to carry a can around with me and I carry two lighters just in case someone needs it.

Re: Good Lighter with Fuel Window
 

Thanks to everyone for the feedback.

Decided to order a clear Blazer CG-001. Like the idea of the fuel tank being under an extra plastic shell and that the odd safety of the PB-207 is not there.

Next time around I'll go with a Xikar. Always need more than one lighter.

Re: Good Lighter with Fuel Window
 

+!
I don't own a lighter that doesn't have a clear window on the fuel tank, but I only EVER use my Blazer due it's consistency.:tu

Re: Good Lighter with Fuel Window
 

I bought three of these cheap lighters and only one works. The other two give me a flash of torch and then it goes out. I'm using good fuel too (Vector).
I also have a Blazer CG-001 that works great.

Re: Good Lighter with Fuel Window
 

You need to adjust the fuel flow. There is a screw at the bottom that you can open and close to set the flow correctly.

Re: Good Lighter with Fuel Window
 

Got a new set of lighters in today. For $50 given that they are quite rugged and reliable, not bad. Oh yeah, that prices was for all 25 :D

Someone forgot their meds today.

Re: Good Lighter with Fuel Window
 

i've got the blazer pb-207. mine crapped out (probably due to pocket lint and not keeping the cover on it), but their warranty covered it and they sent me a new one in a little more then a week.
