Having a h3ll of a time filling my lighters without breaking my tips (opening for snide comments). :roll:
Anyone know of a source for replacements? I just bought a JAVA from C06 last herf and only one tip fit (and not real well at that). It split and there is not enough material to cut it and make it work. :cry:

I use the all mighty Ronson Jet LIght and have never had a problem. I'm comfortable knowing that if I do have a problem I can toss the POS and go to Wally World and pick on up for $3.

I love my xikar Habana...but in the wind a soft flame isn't the most practical and then I use a freebie from Taboo!! :mrgreen:

My triple flame Taboo freebie is my go to. Unless It's a lancero I'm lighting, just tears those right up.

LOL... I personally don't like torches for that reason... it just incinerates anything IMO.

It's just another tool, you have to know when and how to use it. I prefer fire, whatever sort gets the job done!

Hey Twinarch-
Been to several of the wally Worlds near me and no luck with the jet. Might have worked so well they don't sell them anymore. Hardware area said they had a smaller self-igniter propane, but it was replaced by a larger Ronson model.
Did talk my local B&M out of a few extra plastic tips for the LAVA can, so still using the cheapos / freebies. Taboo sent a couple of twin flames that lasted a long time (surprised they sent em full of fuel through the mail). Refills seem to not last as long.
I too have a triple flame, but it sure eats up the fuel fast.
Maybe I ask too much, at least we have the aility to create fire.... most of the time.......
