  • Great fit, modern ability
The Zippo torch insert brought my Zippo up to modern abilities. It resists the wind well and makes it easier to direct the fire onto the place I need it. I start burn-pit fires with it and it makes enough controlled heat to ignite the fire without burning my thumb. It’s easy to refill and unlike the older style, doesn’t get fuel all over the place making it scary to light that first time after refilling. It fits exactly correctly into the Zippo body and still makes that Zippo click sound. I like it a lot! ... show more

  • A great new addition
The media could not be loaded. Jumping right into the goods: • I was sure to do my research before purchasing this — finding all I could on the ins and outs; and I suggest you do the same :) I.] Coming to understand the single flame option is most economical (i.e. when the insert is filled to capacity it truly does last as long as advertised) when compared to the dual-torch as to my understanding - would just be burning through fuel twice as fast. II.] Knowing to ‘bleed’ the insert before filling with butane for the first time was essential. III.] Being aware of butane purity & just what that means for the life of the insert, and also keeping its integrity intact to prolong its utility as much as possible. This was a key-factor. I chose Xikar as it seems to be the #1 go-to as far as research suggests. The high-performance formula was a fun introduction to butane for me :) • I opted to look even further into the insert prior to deciding to own one (and glad that I did) and highly suggest you do as well. If you love Zippos as they are, I’m sure you’ll want a Zippo product you buy for it to actually be a quality addition to your investment. I.] Reading so many negative reviews speaking on this insert’s failures/malfunctions/source of production and it’s ‘poor’ construction, etc — motivated me to see what was up with these accusations. I found they were all asinine. Total ignorance, and proof of the lack of trust in such a coveted brand by the fool’s mind :) II.] Research suggested a ‘modification’ ..if you could even call it that; but unfortunately under Zippo’s warranty it would constitute it being ‘voiding the warranty’ - but it’s worth it. The mod I’m talking about is of course the limiter/retainer ring adjustment you can find on YouTube. Just search something like ‘Fix for Zippo Butane insert’ and watch the most viewed one. Overall, finding out and learning about butane and just how to get the most out of your Zippo product was fun in and of itself. I couldn’t recommend this product more - it’s a great addition to the timelessness and renown of a genuine Zippo lighter - and the honor it is to own one. Such rich history. Even more valuable that family members before me used the same technology, I’m proud to carry the torch onward :) 10/10 Would buy again. And again. And again. Oh. And I’d ‘void the warranty’ again too, because it’s pretty cool to ‘unlimit’ the limiter on the flame height :) and it’s pretty funny it being the main reason people think these inserts are crap and die/malfunction when it doesn’t light. Firstly, do your research. Inquire. Learn. Grow ;-) Secondly. Have fun! Take care, ... show more

  • Zippo may need to look at quality control.
First, let me say I have been a loyal Zippo user for quite some time. I have used - and worn out - any number of Zippos over the years. The classic flint, wheel, fluid style lighter has been in my pocket for a long time. Seemed like, as an acquaintance of mine said, there was always something I had to do with those old classics. I was fiddling, it seemed, with my lighter more often than I wanted to. So, I went in search of something a little less maintenance intensive. Or so I thought. Enter the Zippo butane insert. I thought with a butane insert, built in igniter, fill it, and go. No more dealing with flints or over filled fluid tanks. Right? Not for me. Full disclosure, I did not have "premium" butane on hand when I bought this insert. I'm still not convinced that "premium" butane makes that big a difference on the problems I've had (though, I bought some in my journey with this lighter insert). Out of the box, and after filling with butane for the first time, it worked ... okay. Couldn't get a good flame height out of it, though it was reliable in lighting. Went online, found the "modification" videos out there on this problem and made the mods. Wow. Had to be careful I didn't burn my nose off. Now I'm happy, adjusted the flame just right and burned through my first tank of butane all hunky-dory like. Proud of my fancy Zippo butane lighter. Second fill is when the finicky aspects of this insert began to rear their ugly head. Did my second fill. In my search finding the fix to the flame height issue, I discovered that one must purge the tank of air before filling. No biggie. Purged it. Fill for 3 seconds. Purge. Fill for 3 seconds. Purge. Let sit for a few minutes. Go out back for a smoke. Won't light. I'll get it a flame, which then seems to blow itself out. But no steady flame. Adjust flame height screw lower. Same result. Lights up when I light it with another lighter. But, won't ignite itself. Baffled, I set it aside and used my backup lighter. Next day, on a whim, I pick it up, and lo and behold it worked! Lit first time, and worked fine through a tank of butane. Which lead me to a cycle of going 2 or 3 weeks of perfect performance, and then after a fill the insert being stubborn and not wanting to work. Sometimes, I would get an initial light off which wouldn't last. At some point in this process I did buy "premium" butane after having done every "fix" I could find on the internet. Look, I've made my living over the years off of fixing stuff. Building stuff. It's not like I'm not mechanically inclined. Working with my hands and making stuff work is who I am. Zippo, it shouldn't be this hard. I've had this lighter insert for just over a year. A little over half of the time, it worked just fine. The other half, I had to fiddle with it, re-purge it, set it aside for a day, whatever. What I've found is that every fill cycle I just don't know whether it's going to work or not. I had two, three months of good use after switching to premium butane. Really thought that was the solution. Then, I dropped the lighter. It bounced off a 2x4 on it's way to the ground. And just like that, the problems have returned. It'll light once, and then ... nothing. Set it down, walk away, come back in an hour. It'll light once and then ... nothing. I've adjusted the igniter probe (for lack of a better thing to call it) and got a week's worth of pretty reliable use out of it. Filled it. Now, nothing. Will light if I put another lighter flame to it. But, not on its own. Zippo. It. Shouldn't. Be. This. Hard. Is a year the average lifespan of the igniter on this thing? I don't know. Because I have now determined that has to be what it is: An igniter problem. Paying nearly $20 for a years use of a butane lighter seems a bit expensive to me. Especially when I can buy two Bics to get me through a year for a fraction of the price. Or, just go back to my fluid insert. I gave this thing 2 stars only because when it works, it's the best lighter I've ever owned. Wind resistance is excellent. Flame height easily adjustable. I deducted 3 stars because in the 14 months I've owned it, I've had to fiddle with it far more than any other lighter I've owned. Since I still have a 3/4 full can of premium butane, I'm probably going to buy another one and see whether premium butane from the first use on makes a difference in reliability. I will say this, though. When YouTube is full of videos of people telling you how to get around design flaws just for the privilege/prestige of owning a Zippo ... it doesn't inspire confidence. Update: Decided to order another one of these. Smart decision. Right out of the box, and after filling it, it has worked like a champ. Flame height adjustment was good out of the box. Reliable lights. No modifications necessary. Good right out of the box. Have used the latest through a handful of refills, and still works like a champ. Just like a Zippo should. Manufacturers deserve criticism for when their products don't meet standards. They also deserve credit when it appears they've listened to consumers. It would appear to me they have fixed the problems I, and many on the internet, had been encountering. Kudos to them. ... show more
