I discovered this particular torch when I lost my lighter at a golf course. The cart shed had a bunch of left items and they had one of these torches in the bin. Was better that fighting a book of cheap matches... WHAT A DISCOVERY! I have tried too many (silly expensive) offerings from various folks including Colibri, XiKar, the torch insert from Zippo (pretty good actually) and this item is hands down the best. When my last Colibri bit the dust (which I had already replaced once under warranty) I opted for the 2-pack of these. It is VERY reliable, has 3 jets and (most conveniently) holds a lot of fuel. When it starts to hesitate to light, a quick blast of compressed air and it's back up and running. I also like that you can open the jet cover to blow out the jets without activating the lighter making for a safer design. Did I mention it holds a LOT of fuel?! Fantastic to not have to refill every day or two... The looks are great and it is very easy to use. It is compact and lightweight, making it easy to carry (i.e. on the golf course) making for a great compliment to a round. It just laughs at wind, making it very useful in any situation. I have not tried the integrated punch but it is not intrusive and seems like a great option in a pinch if you don't have a cutter or prefer a punch. I really don't care about the flash and aesthetics of something like this to impress anyone, I just want the damn thing to work, and these are top notch! Read more
These lighters are excellent. I’ve only had them for a about 6 days and they light on the first try practically every time, even outside in the wind. The flame is strong, even and very adjustable. The flip top opens automatically and clicks closed and stays put. Adding butane is straight forward, like others I've had and holds a good amount that should last a good while before having to refill. I'm very happy with them and so glad I chose these. Read more
I love these lighters! They worked great directly out of the package and they put a tremendous amount of heat for their size! Read more
Overall I would say a good set of lighters for the price. I had issues with the fine adjusting screws but it’s nothing major they just don’t seem to work as expected. They are on the larger side which for me is a plus. Just keep that in mind. Seem to be good quality. Read more
WOW! I am amazed how nice these lighters are. Though I’ve only used them for a couple of days and can’t yet attest to their durability (though they seem very well constructed), they seem as good or better than any $30 (for one) cigar lighter I’ve ever purchased at a cigar shop. The flame is even, does well in wind, and the adjusting valve is smooth and provides stable adjustment throughout nearly its entire range. The punch works great, flip top opens automatically and closes securely, igniter works first and every time, and the fill nozzle takes butane without squirting all over the place. What else could you want? I’ll update if durability is an issue, but so far it is a big thumbs up! Read more
Exactly what I needed, great value for cost. It is reliable and easy to use Read more
These are excellent lighters, and I highly recommend them. The butane tanks are larger than those on other cigar lighters I’ve owned, yet they remain lightweight and don’t feel bulky in my pocket. I’m a fan of punching my cigars rather than using a straight or V-cut, and this lighter conveniently features a built-in punch on the bottom. The flame adjustment is also simple and easy to use.

Super powerful flame, but runs out of butane pretty fast. Read more
