I was just reading "The Smoking Stogie- Cigar Reviews" at
http://www.smokingstogie.com/ and read about custom made cigar band lighters. Looks like you can put your bands on Zippos and Ronson's.

Sounds like they hold-up pretty well. While I would never use a Zippo to light my cigars, the Ronson looks like a neat idea. I also think the Opus X light looks great.
Just thought I would pass this around to other BOTL who might find it interesting, and also a project to try ourselves!
MODS- I am not sure if this is supposed to be in the retailer section or not, since the Cigar Band Lighter site is a retailer. If so, please move it to the correct forum. Thanks!

Some of the ones on the site look pretty good. I liked a few of the Ronson's.
Yes, on some of the others, there is too much giong on.

Remember there's that jet flame insert made by Z-plus that you can swap in for like 10 bucks. I've got one in a zippo I love.

I always thought it would be cool to be able to buy a gold ring in the shape of your fave cigar band..although some would be like knuckle dusters!
