Butane Lighters

Today I purchased this lighter, it's made by a company called Castleford.



I paid something like $13, because the only alternative in the store was a Rocky Patel triple-flame monster of a lighter worth $70. Will this do the trick, or does more expensive really mean higher quality?

Re: Butane Lighters

I have gone through at least 20 cheap lighters totaling over $250. I bought an Xtend for $100 six years ago and it still works like a champ.

Re: Butane Lighters

Just as in life lighters are a crap shoot they either work for ever or die quickly, and it even may be the same style..
Just go for a good lighter 40-75$ with a good warranty and be set..

Re: Butane Lighters

I will go ahead and be the first to say the Ronson Jetlite. I am still looking for them around here, but no luck so far. However many brothers on here buy the store out when they find them. If anyone has any extras for sale, hit me up, please. I could use a backup lighter.

Re: Butane Lighters

Our Walmart has apparently quit carrying them. I've not seen one in a couple of months, maybe longer.

I have a everyday carry lighter like this and it works great for smaller rg cigars.

Re: Butane Lighters

I have a nice one made by Blue Rhino (the propane company) that I got in a contest they ran years ago. I also have a Ronson JetLite. I don't see the need to spend a fortune on one.

Re: Butane Lighters

I definitely agree with the above statements about the Jet Lite. It's a great lighter for the price.

I use $0.50 to $1.00 fleamarket torch lighters that I usually can get a couple of years out of. I also have a trusty Blazer torch that I inherited from my Pops (that's my fave).
