As Michael mentioned, the Ronson Jet lighter is an inexpensive way to experience a butane lighter. You can always keep two or three on hand. Later, you can move up into something like a Blazer PB-207...

Another downfall of the Zippo fluid: After filling....well, don't put the thing in any pocket close to flesh until you're sure the residue has evaporated. By the time you notice the sting it gets painful too fast to stop the burn from occurring.

Quit over-filling Brian

Ouch! Guess that's why my Dad always wrapped his in a handkerchief for a bit after he filled it. Thanks for the warning.
