After a long wait, here it is.
Pete is the man! This thing exceeded my expectations on every level.
- Very heavy duty
- Amazing finish
- extremely reliable
- long lasting
- ingenuity x100 (even on the bottom, completely sealed ports with clever pop out knobs)
I cant say enough, This lighter totally blows all my other lighters away, AND I HAVE A FEW... And I gave most of them away.

Glad you dig it, Bobby. Remember, when the top is open, the gas is flowing, BTW.

I apologize for my scarcity,
In the last several months I’ve gotten married, gone on my honeymoon, started a new job, and moved into a new home with my new bride. It’s been busy to say the least. One of the biggest reasons for an extended period of “settling in” time is my new job. I went to work for a new company (recruiting firm) and I’ve been busting my hump to try and produce right out of the gate so I’ve been working very long hours which has meant that my home life has suffered as well as the fact that I don’t have the energy to hit the gym or even go out with my friends, etc.
Now, I’m back! It seems as if my “stars are aligning” and things are going well. I made several placements in my new job and things are “rolling” and going extremely well. I just had to shut off a few things and put my nose to the grindstone and focus (which is normally very tough for me)… So I had to commit to cut out a lot of the (we’ll call them) “luxuries” in order to achieve this focus.
Regardless, here I am. I’m back in working order and better than ever. I just had to adjust my focus and regroup.. And I have. Hope to see you all around on the forum!

It might be a good lighter, but I just checked the website and it leaves a lot to be desired. No prices. No product descriptions. I hate to be negative, but I'm only trying to be constructive.

^^^ you gotta talk to the man with the master plan, Pete... or you can ask me anything about it.

If you read the website, you might realize that I am a web-savvy-idjit. I have not had the time and patience to sort out all the problems I have with it, and am quite aware that it isn't the most polished thing in the world.
I would be glad to help any questions you might have, just click the "contact me" button on the bottom and I will get you sorted out.

Word up Pete. If anyone has any hesitations about these lighters please ask around to dispell all doubts.

I ordered an Ever Torch way back when and have just started using it again after not being able to find it for some time. I must say, I love it! The best lighter I've used in some time. I was talking about it on Twitter earlier and had a few people interested but no one could find any information or websites regarding it. Can someone get me this info so I could get it over to them?

I would like some info but could not even find a web site. Could someone just put the web link, prices, availability, etc on here?

Thanks for the great post, Bobby.
I was so impressed that I just ordered one.
:-)
I do have one question though, does anyone know what kind of replacement flint would be needed once the original one dies?

s15driftking 09:08 PM 09-23-2009

BTW, dinder, you'll love it!
[Reply]
replicant_argent 09:12 PM 09-23-2009

Thanks, Bobby. I also have a ton of Dupont flints hanging around....maybe they would work if the Zippo ones don't.
