Forgot to mention this as well regarding Porsche, Auto-maker lighters etc. They are not produced by the actual companies you think. Porsche lighters are made by F.A. Porsche Design which isn't even related to Porsche, the auto-maker - although IIRC, the owner of the company does share his last name. They design everything from lighters to LaCiE external hard drive enclosures. While IMO they do make some good designs, please be careful in equating them their quality vs. their automaker counterpart. Would you have noticed these lighters if they weren't named as such?
I am looking for a soft flame butane. I do believe these are related to the auto maker, not the reason I like it though. Looks pretty cool and soft flame, just wondering if the quality was there.
the one in the pic is the new # 6. it looks like a high tech bic lighter. i have been using one, and it us nice. helluva lot more $ than a bic, but what the hell, we all need a porsche.
