Damn Colibri Firebird lighter!

[protease]

Just got my Firebird lighter today. After 3 lighting, it is dead. I am not sure if it is due to less butane. After recharging with Ronson Multi-fill Butane Fuel. It is still dead. Just spark but not ignite!

What I need to do?!

did you bleed it out before filling it? Might want to try another brand of butane. Or, you can get a Blazer, that is what I did after the so-called fancy lighters all stopped working for me.

- you'll never go back. One of the best accessory investments I ever made.

I did not bleed it out before filling it. Not sure if it does matter.

Looks nice and where you bought it. Looks like price raised and + shipping. Not sure if local store sell it.

Any people want to group buy?!

Same experience here. Tokk mine back to BevMo. Bought ronson. Still going strong near a year.

Bleed it completely, it does matter and use a higher grade fuel such as Vector or Lava.
