Default Re: Lighters other than a PB-207?

I'd check out the S.T. Dupont Maxi Jet (x-tend) The fuel tank isn't nearly as big as the Blazer and you have to have an adapter to fill it (which I haven't found yet) otherwise you have to use dupont fuel. But the lighter is reliable as h*ll and the C-bid has some good deals on it <$100...

I've been using a Porsche Design PD4 which I picked up new off ebay for not a lot of money. It's typical Porsche quality and works perfectly all the time. It'a on of the larger ones so it has more than adequate fuel capacity. Porsche Design makes really good torch lighters.

Hey Steve, I have an older X-tend (made in France) and I only use Vector fuel in it without needing an adaptor. I don't know if the fill valve was changed on the newer Maxi jets made in China or not though, but using the Vector fuel will save ya some coin if it works.

I also have an older one that I fill with Vector and one of the adaptors it comes with. Never had a problem with it, great lighter but don't use it too much anymore as I prefer my solder-it torch and mostly just use the Ronson for touch ups to save wear on my X-tend as it is more for "special occasions".

For $100 that lighter had better light my cigar completely hands-free and pour me a drink while I'm waiting...
