The Lighter Thread

s15driftking · 01-15-2009, 11:51 AM

Hey,

I was just browsing ebay and saw some really cool looking torch lighter and fugired i'd come here to ask if anyone knew and e-site where i could purchase one because this one was the only one i found on ebay. So i searched here for a thread with similar likings and found nothing.

I figured people could use this thread as a utility to discuss lighters, post pics, help identify, and find out "where to get" certain pieces that they were looking for.

Not to rain on your parade or anyting, but the way the top of that one only flops open a quarter turn is going to piss you off. The top will get in your way as you try to toast the foot and its gonna get hot as hell.

Agreed, I have one and love it!!!!

mosesbotbol · 01-15-2009, 11:55 AM

http://www.cigarmony.com/ has a nice selection of lighters. I think they posted a 5-10% discount code on this or another cigar forum too.

I'd be hesitant on buying a lighter on Ebay unless it's a no-name an priced right, or from a bonafied retailer if going high end. The Dunhill Trench Torch lighter has been the nicest torch lighter I have tried, but you pay for it.

Blazers are always good. I love my pb207. Also, Vectors are great, I've got a thundra. That thing is amazing

The Blazer PB 207 Rocks

I got a free Zippo Blu from another site...it works great!

md4958 · 01-15-2009, 02:25 PM

it doenst seem like that rocket ship would be very comfy in the pocket. I own a few cheapies and one of the Evertorches that they are having a GB on right now.

For pure functionality, looks aside I would have to recommend a Blazer... I dont own one, but have used several. They are great, always light, and have a huge fluid tank

The rocket ship in my pocket is quite comfy. It also never misfires.

I love mine too! It's great and can used for spot welding.

My Extend is also a solid lighter. It has served me well for the past three years. I've never had much luck with Colibris though. I have two that have gone caput.

Prefer my Blazer PB207 for cigars.
Prefer my Dupont Linge II's for everything else

Starchild · 01-16-2009, 08:30 AM

I picked up a cheap benzomatic torch that I like to use when I'm home
Flexable torch

Other than that I've got a Ronson and I've enjoyed the triple flame torch I got from Taboo
triple torch

The Ronson was a gift, and the others were less than $5. There are too many cigars I want to be spending a bunch on a lighter.
