2.0 out of 5 stars Waste of money for the non smoker October 3, 2012

By Dr. Joseph Bianco

Color Name:Red|Amazon Verified Purchase

Excellent lighter. Well built reliable easy to get fuel. The lighter has a auxiliary reserve tank with a place to store spare flints so you'll always have fuel and flints with you. I'm not a smoker, as I bought this to keep with me when camping to start fires. Only thing I don't like is the smell of the fuel. I wont be lighting my cigars with it.

Update: After owning this thing for a month I wish I could return it. The basic problem is the fuel evaporates within 2 ~ 3 days. So you have to constantly refill it. I guess that is why there is a spare fuel tank so you have some fuel on a multi day hike. It is well built, if your a smoker I guess you would use it allot to light your cigarets, however, if you just want a dependable lighter for backpacking - this one isn't it.
