Had several in the past seven years and none were worth a damn. Any recs from the pros?

Ronson Jetlite - inexpensive and works great. It has a nice single-flame jet that is not too intense.

Go with JJ. Jet Lites at Wally World are about three bucks. Can't beat them. Last one lasted over three years, had it so long I wore the finish off of it.

Absolutely correct. I have a clear one and a red one that are at least 8 years old and both work perfectly everytime. I bet I have 40-50 lighters that I've paid $30-$100 for that don't work and most of them didn't work after the first or 2nd refill!

Yep, those things are bulletproof. If your local The Wal-Mart dosent have them, mine does. LMK

That is what I have been using plus CI matches.

can't beat my Xikar with soft flame or Prometheus torch

The AB tabletop lighter I got for about $25 from CBID is nice for around the house or on a golf trip. Only took 34 days to arrive though!

and wooden matches

Vector Thundra table top, the only lighter I now use. Same as cgcpro's AB Tabletop.

That AB tabletop is dope. Makes a nice little conversation piece

I really just need to go get a jetlite because I have the same issue every lighter I get dies after the first couple of fills and I use Xicar butane and all that crap to try to keep them from having issues.

Yes get a Jetlite for everyday and travel and get a Vector or AB tabletop for the home. I haven't had to refill my table top yet and I use it every night!

A Bic guy myself.

Does not matter how you light it, if you can taste a difference after one or two puffs, you have a palate of a god(or just maybe its all mental). Good marketing consumes the consumer.

for everyday...

Ronson Jetlite...

$5 and use triple refined gas...

Another vote for Ronson jet lite ...

For home I use a Blazer Spitfire, usable for creme brule and welding as well. For travel I have a colibri quantum trifecta that was a gift, great triple flame and holds a lot of gas. Still have a can an a half of lava 5x refined butane left, the butane quality is more important than the lighter IMO.
