    Well you usually tip in some lighter fluid, flip the lid and spin the wheel...
    After a while you'll stop sniffing it, don't worry:D

    Ensure you only use Zippo fluid, and not the cheap crap. Your zippo will work more times than when using the cheap crap.

    Mine was €65 a few months ago but that was in Petersons so you'll find them cheaper elsewhere or online.

    I'm older than Minecraft goats.

    Can never be arsed filling up one of my three zippos so for the most part a cheapo lighter does me fine.

    Matches when I feel like being classy:cool:
    Just not very realistic for using all the time in Ireland..

    Just a heads up for anyone travelling though the airport. The Search Unit were told to confiscate Zippos that are being used,ie. have fuel in them,at Dublin airport. I bring mine into work at the airport and was told this last week when they seen mine in the x-ray.

    I had to look up IMCO lighters too.

    Ironically, my pipe lighter is identical to their CHIC4PIPE model.

    Butane & Flint, perfect.

    I have been admiring this one though..

    Next on the shopping list methinks, along with a nice meerschaum calabash a la Sherlock Holmes.

    Light them with whatevers available!

    Most succesfully when I have a lighter or matches lying around.

    Least successfully, when using my mother's toaster. Broken two that way:o

    I dont rate zippos much at all tbh.
    The fuel just evaporates too quickly.
    4 days or so and it can be dead because of the heat.
    Real zippo and real fuel BTW.

    When I am outdoors I use a little blotorch lighter that I got off some guys in the australian army.
    Inside I just use some heavy matches or disposable lighters. I buy throwaway lighters by the 10 pack. Id love to have one perfect lighter but something slim enough yet reliable enough has yet to present itself!

    Fuse went on mine, so have to get it fixed one of the days. If I have one prerolled, waiting under the handbrake, and I see the lights in the distance go yellow I would sometimes push the lighter, so when I stop, it clicks out, I light up the rollie, and off I go. Don't light up the rollie when moving.
