Torch lighter advise
I'm looking to purchase a torch lighter. Something in the 20-40 dollar range. Is XIKAR a good brand? I was looking at the Element. Also the Blazer BP-207. Any advise is appreciated.

XIKAR - Lifetime warranty....no questions asked. Unless you run over it with a dump truck. |
Re: Torch lighter advise
For that price, you can get the Xikar Executive from Azon... no waiting! :tu

Re: Torch lighter advise
You can get a dozen or more Ronson Jet Lites in that price range.

Re: Torch lighter advise
well if you are going to spend $40, just buy 20 of these.
http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.1455 I have a Xikar executive, Calibrei firebird and a Ronson jetlight and I use this lighter 99% of the time. :tu |
Re: Torch lighter advise
+1 for Xikar, can't beat 'em IMHO

Re: Torch lighter advise
If you're looking for a table-torch, look at the vector with the perdomo logo. They are $30 on cigarsinternational and hold a ton of fuel. Too big to carry in your pocket, but great for around the house.

Re: Torch lighter advise
1 vote here for the PB-207.....never fails me.

Re: Torch lighter advise
I bought a $20 triple flame lighter from my local Tinderbox, it has served me well. Dont know the brand, it was some no name deal.
I had a Zippo Blu POS! |

Re: Torch lighter advise
I recommend a Blazer, any model. I personally have 2 of the CG-001.
Blazers also carry a LIFETIME warranty! |

Re: Torch lighter advise
I got all sorts of lighters, cheap-mid priced and high priced. For a "pocket model" I most often use one of my dozen or so Ronson Jet Lites, they are the most dependable and under $3 each at some Walmarts. For table top use around the house I use a micro soldering torch most often, works wonderful, lasts a month or so without refilling and just feels good and powerful. Solder It is my favorite http://www.buy.com/prod/solder-it-pt...210438974.html
If you want to look cool, the Alec Bradley table top is top notch! Blazer makes good dependable stuff for sure.:2 |
Re: Torch lighter advise
Pb - 207

Re: Torch lighter advise
If you're spending the money get the blazer. Otherwise I'd go with the ronson, and use the rest of the cash for some more sticks! :2

Are these good prices? +free shipping |
Re: Torch lighter advise
The Executive prices are good, but the Ronson prices are 2x... Did you check the local WalMarts for the Ronson?

:l I gotta tell you guys I haven't been smoking cigars that long but I am completely blown away by the cigar smoking community. The generosity, genuineness, kindness, realness, the way you guys are willing to help others is very unique. There really is something special going on here that can't be found anywhere else. At least not in my experience. It is really a privilege to be here. |
Re: Torch lighter advise
Amen, I will second that. There's good people here!

Re: Torch lighter advise
For some reason I can't bring myself to buy the Blazer style Deal Extreme lighters... they (and most "Tank" style lighters) just look like something a meth head would use to me. That said, I'm still a cheap b@$t@rd, so I've been considering trying out one of these. It's not a dead perfect clone, but it really looks like a poor man's Xikar Element, and I prefer a punch to a cutter on anything but Belicosos anyway.

Re: Torch lighter advise
PB-207 is a great lighter, no doubt - until you lose it. Don't feel like replacing it for $30 plus.
I like a triple flame. Anybody had any experience with the jetline triple flame? http://www.bargainhumidors.com/bh/Pr...id=ACC-JETLINE Looks like a pretty decent PB-207 clone? |

The Xikar Element is hard to beat although I will confess I pulled the trigger and order a ligne 2 St Dupont last week so my Xikar will be getting some breaks from daily use.
