  • BOTL UPCOMING MAINTENANCE

    Hi Everyone, as mentioned in my introduction post, BOTL needs quite a bit of updating, patching and whatever else I might come across. Over the next few weekends BOTL may be unreachable on occasion as I do migrations or updates, etc. Just be patient - we'll be back! I'll generally try to keep these maintenances until later in the evenings.

Got a new lighter today...

So after some good and faithful service, my trusty Xikar Incline started to falter lately. Low flame, sputtering...meh

So I brought it into my favorite B&M...Brandon tried to MacGyver it back to life to no avail. Rather than exchange it for the same model, I decided to step up a tad and pay the difference for a better model.

So I walked out with a Xikar Element. Double jet flame and a built in punch in the bottom.




Nice strong flame on this one too!!!


Yeah, I know it's just a lighter...no biggie, but whatever, I felt like sharing.

That's the exact same lighter I plan to get as my next pickup, color and everything. Post an update on how it treats you.

Nice lite! I'd like to get a reliable multi-jet lighter as well. My ST Dupon makes a great single-torch, but for bigger sticks it does take a while.

Xikar is the greatest company I've encountered as far as cigar stuff goes. That's a cool looking lighter bro, might have to look into getting one myself.

I will agree with others. Xikar makes a nice product. For those of you that have not held/used one, Photos of them do not do justice to them. I was gifted one, and from the photos I had previously looked at they kinda looked cheap, but once I had it in my hand the finish quality, and the overall build was far better then I could have ever imagined.
