DO NOT spend more than 15 bucks on a silly lighter.
I have one of these that I bought locally for about $12
I have had this for years. I use it for BBQing, camp fires, Cigars, everything.
This is my second one only due to my first one swelling up in the summer heat in my truck. I had that one for many years as well.
This. Bought one of these from my local Cigar shop and it works great. They refilled it for free last time I went in.

Buy a big pack of cedar planks off Amazon and use a regular bic for that.

Yeah, try doing that outside with a nudge of wind.
Get a cheap Vertigo lighter.
Xikar has gone to shite since they got bought out, and their warranty process is horrible now.

I have several that I've accumulated over time. I will say if you wanna just have one for daily use, Lotus makes a good product that is about half the price and their reps are very good about replacing one with any issue. I took mine to the shop where I bought it and the owner called the rep and she mailed a replacement no questions asked.

When I bought my second one, the cigar lady asked if I had my bad one. Said she would replace it free.
I already trashed it. Cheap enough

I have a few. Good, if not great lighters.
Edit: after reading the comments. Mine are 10-15yrs old and I’ve had no problems. I can’t verify if they suck or not now.

Go to Home Depot or Lowes and get a Bernzomatic butane pen torch. I've had one for years and it's never had an issue. Keep one in my truck and one in my kitchen as a general purpose lighter. I've tried Zippos, tobacco store specials, Bics, etc. They have a lot more fuel capacity than typical butane lighters too.

shite man…. Buy what you want. If you want something more than $20 then get after it. I wanted something nice and something I could light at the camp or in a blind without worry b/c of the wind. I found a good deal on this ST DuPont, so I jumped on it. Much better than the price on the link. It has great reviews. Xikar makes several good lighters as well.

A cheap vertigo lighter can’t be beaten for value

I've had a $9 Vertigo for years. Cheap and works.

Thanks everyone, got a vertigo on order.

Call Cigars International and talk with them. They will not steer you wrong.

I have a couple options.. a fancy 3 burner light I got from a cigar shop and a Coleman propane torch.. both work ..Torch is a bit dangerous, but gets the job done..
