Hey all . . .

When it comes to lighting my cigars, I prefer to use a butane torch because I take a good amount of time toasting the foot and gertting a nice ring of fire going before I actually start taking some draws off of it. I've been using some decent torches so far, but they're a little short on longevity and burn strength. I read somewhere that you need to "bleed" the excess gas out of the torch before refueling it and while that does seem to work in restoring it to its original burn, the butane still doesn't last very long. I'm assuming that I'm just using some low-end torches and should probably bite the bullet and upgrade to something more reliable. I'm curious if anyone here has some suggestions? I used one at the lounge the other day that looked like a minature oil can that had a spool on it you had to turn "on" before igniting it - and while it burned magnificently, it also looked like it just consumed butane like a Hummer does gas! I think I'm looking for something more portable!

For a good lighter that goes really easy on the butane, I like the Blazer PB-207.

There are also some extreme deal lighters out of Hong Kong (I will look for the link) that come out to a couple bucks apiece....been using one for the last several weeks, it's a hoot...and no big deal if it craps out in 6 months.

Yup, I have one of these too, and it works great, and a tank fills lasts a long time.

I have this little lighter, While I don't use it for me I use it to light the ladies at the bars or I let the other guys use it to light there cigars or cigarettes. I think it works just fine and it last a pretty good while. I like the fact that the tank is clear so I know to refill it before I go out or it will be alright.

While I have several lighters I just got one that I really enjoy lighting my cigars with because it does suck a great job at toasting the foot. Most of the time that is all I do to start smoking it.
It is a triple flame Black ops, it will burn through some fuel, but it will last a week or so or a night of HERFs. It comes with a punch on it as well so if you misplace your cutter for the night.

I would highly recommend either of the DealExtreme lighters. The second is a bit large for your pocket but hold a ton of fuel. The first one is my go to lighter. Holds enough fuel to light 3 cigars a day for 2-3 weeks. I have gifted at least 50 of these over the years. Cost is $2ea when you buy 3 and use the bulkrate shipping code. Delivery is a bit slow but they are great lighters. The Blazer is probably the most reliable lighter but is more expensive. :-)

Just ordered 6 more of these for less than $15 shipped.

very hard to beat and they run FOREVER
[Reply]

The time I had mine in the rotation, it lit almost 100 cigars on one fill....can't hurt to have some spares.

I got one like this dealextreme.com from walmart in the heat shrink tube section for 15.00.
I like that it has large tank and soft flame or torch has a big base so it works great as a table top yet not bad in the pocket.
and for these prices I might get me a few more.
the only thing I would like a a clear base but it looks like this model has a little window not bad
[Reply]

I like that... Has anyone from the states ordered from this website? How long does it take to get in?
[Reply]

I plan on ordering 1-2 more of my style and maybe a few of the others posted here they are a great deal at least it seams
[Reply]

i have and tom just ordered some. time varies. i think mine only too like a week. it can take longer though
[Reply]

I've ordered a few times Shawn, took about 2 weeks each time.
[Reply]

I guess I will also ask, it was secure? Always have to ask with some of these companies. THis one seems like it is huge though.
[Reply]
