solder it micro jet torch. lowes or home depot piping department. burns even crappy zippo butane and never clogs and you have a soldering torch for home repairs

Ronson Jetlite $2.97 at Walmart or big lots. I can also get them here on post for $3.99 and they were just purchased by Zippo so the quality has gone up.

So Ronson +4..........

Good to know...

On the flip side, we were at the Tinder Box in Collierville TN Saturday and they had a Perdomo Table Top Lighter. It was amazing. Anyone own? They had it at $80. A little pricey, but its nice to support the local B&M. Great group of guys running the shop and met a really cool brother on the Forum.

You can get that on freefall for around 30 bucks sometimes. I nabbed one awhile back but quit working for me, someone here had a fix for them but never got around to it, just tossed it in the junk box.

I use a Jetlite 90% of the time. Its worked great for almost 2 years now. I also got one of those big perdomo triple flame tabletop ones, but hardly use it.

Have not had great luck with Jetlites personally...but @ $3 per if they last a year...good purchase

have 3 Xikars, Use the EXII almost exclusively for close to 2 years now, no problems

prometheus is probably the best i have personally used

A pair of Colibri, now problems at all

a pair of Lotus table triple flame lighters, also no problems

I have the big Perdomo triple torch table lighter, and it works great, although I hardly use it. Paid around $30 here.

I've been carrying around a CI Lotus Laser torch for over a year of almost daily use with no problems. Usually can pick one up here for $10-$15.

Vector Thundra (Perdomo table top) has got to be the best lighter out there. Heck, I used to carry mine around in my pocket. Now that I know how to fix any non working lighter out there, I usually carry cheap Nibo Triples, but still use the Thundra in the smoke room.

Thanks, I think Ill keep an eye out for the Perdomo on here and see if another one pops up! $30 sounds awesome and would make a nice Christmas gift to myself.

Also, My buddy and I met a fellow brother at the Tinder Box in Memphis TN over the weekend and they both use the CI Lotus torch. Its beautiful and they both seemed to like it. I may have to grab one of those as well.

We were at the Cigar Factory there is New Orleans back in Sept for his wedding and had a blast........

Ronson +

Occasionally they pop up on a daily deal website.

I got a twelve pack for $20, iirc.

Twelve may be a lifetime supply, since I'm still

on my first, after a year. I gave a few away, too.

Tuck gave me a single torch by Madelaine. He said it wasn't too expensive, but I don't know how much. Anyway, it's basically an S.T. Dupont knock-off, and it works great for me.

personally I have had bad luch with the Ronson Jetlites I went through two of them rather quickly, less than two months and just abandoned them. I carry a Xikar Stratosphere and love it. good butane really is the key. buy a big can of the best you can get and it will last a LOOOOONG time. I like a double flame, but thats personal preferance.

There is a Lotus Ave Maria Laser Torch that is the exact same lighter that has been popping up around here as well. FYI
