This means there is no air trapped inside. Cheap butane doesn't work in it.
If you take off the shell (1 phillips head screw) you can slide off the o-ring around the flame adjustment screw, take of the ristrictor ring (looks like the letter Q), then reinstall the o-ring and shell. Now the flame can be adjusted as high as you want without potentially breaking the lighter.

I have owned dozens. Only one broke, the hing. I have used Vector in all and all work well. I usually end up giving them away at herfs, otherwise I'd probably still be using the first one I bought.
