This was a great lighter until I dropped it, The ceramic liner around the burners broke and the lighter never worked again. Thank you. Daniel of Nebraska.

DON'T BUY THIS PRODUCT!! ITEM DOESN'T COME WITH FUEL. ATTEMPTS TO LOAD & FUEL ITEM BY MYSELF AND MY SON, (U.S. ARMY LT1 & HIS SGTS.) BROKE BOTH OF OUR SAMPLES. WASTED $40. GET A BIC INSTEAD! CHEAPER,SIMPLER AND MUCH MORE RELIABLE SINCE WE NEVER GOT OURS TO WORK.

I have bought several of these lighters and have had great results from them. I am a plumber and use them to melt my flux in the winter and light some of my flex torches, it works great. It also lights in heavy winds if you have it set right. Use the very best butane, "not cheap stuff it won't work" and you will have great results.

I recently ordered this item and I have been testing the lighter, but I haven't field tested it yet. The light feels sturdy and when it ignites, there is an awesome hot flame. Though the lighter feels sturdy, the instructions depict that the lighter is fragile. You have to be careful about particles getting to the burners and you can't have the lighter lite for more than 10 secs. Also, the cap for the lighter that is so crucial to the up keep of the lighter, is plastic. I would have liked to see a stronger plastic or metal to be more reliable. I am also having issues with lighter igniting. After about five attempts, it will eventually light. Still is a good lighter for survival cases, but not 100%

Great product, reliable and well made.
