double soft-flame butane lighter. I love it, but it only works well indoors...

I use matches when I can, and soft-flame when I have to...I am considering buying a torch though, I sometimes have burn issues outside when the wind is up a little. torch might be easier.

I use my torch, or my soft flame zippo when the torch is acting up.

I like a torch the most just because the soft flame is so hard outside at times. Though I have tried laser armed weaponry, and I must say they get lit very quickly.

Torch lighter is #1.Followed by a wooden match if I don't have access to a torch.

laser weaponry would be good for long ones, like that "Nub Club"...
generally, I tend to use a torch

My Xikar EX Havana is a windproof soft flame. It works in every condition I've tried it in -- even out on the ocean on a boat. I use it to light cigars at festivals and outdoor events all the time and it ALWAYS works for me.

I love the three headed monster. Especially since I have been smoking such fat Robustos the last couple of years. If I ever get back to Coronas, I might consider a double, or even a single, but the torch is the one for me. Then again my Zippo gives the stick a unique taste, but I use it so seldom I practically have to fuel it up every time I use it.

Anybody ever try a candle?

I prefer cedar strips or matches but usually use a dual flame
