  • 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.

I have also been thinking about purchasing an ice torch lighter. Any suggestions on something that isn't too expensive but is nice looking, compact, and works well. If anyone has anything that they'd like to sell let me know as well. I'll put a post in the trading forum. I saw one in a CIGAR magazine that I liked. It was black with the white text "CIGAR" on the side.

The best pocket torch I've ever used is the Blazer PB-207. You can get them from nextcigar. They run less than $30, are crazy hot, and will light a couple of boxes of cigars before they run out of fuel.

If you like soft flame lighters, then I highly recommend the Corona Old Boy. It's really a pipe lighter, but it holds up great and has a large fuel tank.

I have a ST Dupont Xtend, two actually, and I love them...whether they are affordable is open to debate though. :hysterica
That will be my next purchase when I have some extra cash on hand.

I'd never pay that much for a lighter but lucky for me I got it for free :clap:

I hate doing this but...I have a Prometheus lighter that is very much like the PB-207, it's called the "Intruder". I can't advertise this on my site per the vendor agreement but 25% off the MSRP on any Prometheus product bro. :thumbsup:

Also, I have been using the "Ultimo" Palladium plated and it is VERY much like the St X-tend, only it holds slightly more fuel but I personally like the soft flame of the "Churchill X" when a windproof lighter isn't needed.

I don't get the question BigO. Mark's letting you know about a deal he's running. Click the link in his sig. Prometheus is a lighter vendor.

You lost me somewhere...:dunno:

Dear lord...that is a nice lighter but out of my price range. Very nice though.
