  • 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 LOVE my EX lighter. It is TSA safe. I travel with it in my carry on bag all the time. As well as the MTX scissor cutters. Both are perfect carryon flying cigar tools.

I thought that too but it got confiscated in Denver even though it made it through other airports. I told them it was a regular flame lighter but they said cause it had an element in the chamber which qualified it as a torch. :(

I tell them that it is a TSA approved soft flame lighter. Some terminals have retards working. I just ask for a supervisor.

I have always wonders about the EX lighters being tsa approved. They seem to have a torch within the soft flame.

Guess I'll leave mine at home just to be sure.

Girlfriend bought me the same lighter for my birthday. The thing is AWESOME. I'm babying the hell out of it though. Not taking it anywhere it could get confiscated, and it lives in its case at home.
