Ronson JetLite Torch Lighter

[DBCcigar]

I'll have to snag a few just to have as a backup.

I bought one a few weeks ago at Wal-Mart for $2.93 + tax. I love it, its has a good weight to it, its built like a tank, however I feel like the butane is not lasting me very long. I smoked 2 cigars on saturday and was out of fuel by the second cigar.

I may be making some sort of New-B mistake or something. Nonetheless I love it, I may have to go to Wal-Mart and buy 5 more.

I wish I would have known about this lighter 4 months ago when I bought a Zippo for $20 bucks & a Z-Plus torch insert for $12. I could have bought 10 Ronson lighters. Oh well you live and learn.

...Try to fiddle with the screw on the bottom. Get a small screwdriver or whatever works and change the fluid output on the bottom. This has been known to help out a bit.

I did this last night and refilled it and its working like a champ. It lights on the first click.

In another thread, we discussed the virtues of the little tank of a torch lighter produced by Ronson. Some of you mentioned that your local Wal-Mart did not carry them.

Well, I had purchased four of them for a friend, but today, just as I was getting the package ready to mail them to him, he e-mailed me and told me he was able to locate them in his area and no longer needed me to send them to him. I was going to return them, but I figured I'd offer them to my fellow BOTL on Cigar Live who were unable to find them at their local Wal-Mart's first.

I paid $3.49 each for them ($2.97 + $.26 tax). I'll sell them for cost + postage to whomever wants one. Just PM me and let me know you want one (or more than one). First come, first gets. I'll give it until Friday night to see if anyone is interested before returning them to the store.

All of them are still in their original hanging packaging, like this:

As I said a month or so ago, this lighter is about the best I've seen and saw 6 of them at Wallymart and bought everyone of them at $2.94,,,,I've had colobris or prometheus that cost $100 or more and don't last as long as this.

Well that was fast. First person to PM me bought all four.
