We've got them as well. Same price as seriouscigars. I have used nothing else for the last two years, and absolutely love it. Refill about once a week. To clean, I turn the can of fuel upside down with the stem of the can pressed against the burner. Then I depress the can to shoot some hi pressure fuel down into the burner. That has always cleaned out dust and debris, not to mention the carbon deposits that accumulate. If the flame is still not strong enough, take the insert out and there should be a stop mechanism on the flame height adjustment screw. Take it off so you can turn that screw as far up or down as you want. On other torch lighters it's usually a brass ring with a tab on it that sits around the flame height adjustment thing-a-ma-jig. Pry it off with a knife or pliers and that should let you turn that thing as far as you want.
Happy torchin...

I never heard about this stuff before now. Thanks Zack for bringing my Zippo out of retirement.

I have the ZPlus and it works great. My only complaint is that the ignition button is small and it's angled, so sometimes your thumb slides off of it as you light.

Just got one 2 weeks ago and I love it! I love that "ping" when you open the lid. It's awesome!

Doesn't that shoot the debris back into the lighter? Is that a good thing? Or am I misunderstanding?

I've been using my Zplus for over 1.5 years. I've never had a problem. Knock, knock, knock

I got it in the mail today Mike, and am impressed. Great service. And, I get to continue using a lighter that I got almost 20 years ago. I appreciate it.

SO now that everyone has had this zippo insert for a couple months....does anyone still use it. My local B&M stopped selling them due to customers bringing them back with problems.
