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.
Glad you like 'em Neil. These are the exact reasons this is the only lighter I have. For the amount I can buy the cheaper Xikar lighters for I could buy about 8 of these. And they last. A friend of mine had one for 6 years before he finally bought a new one and he carried that thing in his pocket a lot which really beats up a lighter. As long as you use quality butane (though I've never had one give me any trouble straight out the package and I would assume they have Ronson butane in them :dunnoI love it!
Works great, looks good and is dependable.
And if you need to replace it, you can fairly cheaply.
Won't Xikar replace/fix that lighter for him?My buddy has a xikar executive single torch lighter, it has its issues. After igniting it goes out often usually after a few seconds.
I couldn't find any in my area either. Must be a regional thing.
Seems that most people have luck finding them at their local Wal-Mart or version of. That said, I just recently saw them in one of the local Wal-Marts.Yeah I searched any store that sold lighters or tobacco products. I got nothing.
Yup. So did I. But as good members as there are here. Dan said he would help me out with one.Yep, I hunted through every local Wal-Mart, K-Mart, Walgreens, CVS, etc. Came up with nothing. Nada. Zip.
