heartfelt.com sells triple flame blue rhino torches with cigar punches on the bottom. I used to have one until I broke it. Excellent lighter, especially considering the cheap price and good warranty.
You could get a Ronson Jet-Lite from walmart for about 3 dollars. Providing you use good fuel (not the ronson brand) It'll last you a while. (still on my 1st one with a few extras on hand)
I used ronson fuel in my colibri, think thats what screwed it up?

I buy torch lighters made by Tiger, (Nibo), from eBay for about 6 dollars shipped if you buy 2 or more at a time.
They work great, they're cheap, and they're not particular about what fuel you put in them.
I have several Ronson Jet-Light lighters also. I use cheap fuel in them, and they always work. You just need to purge them before refilling, and give them about 5 minutes to rest before trying to light.

I highly recommend the Blazer. Ive had a few torch lighters before I bought this one, and it is by far the best. I picked up the clear one so I can see exactly how much fuel I have left in it. And there is an ignition lock on the side that away you dont have to keep the button pushed while lighting your cigar.
I bought mine from Cigarmony.
They are usually out of stock at my wal mart, but I buy them all when I see them... I have the damn things everywhere :smiley5:
They're my favorite lighter for doing touch-ups... since they have a needle-sharp precise flame!
Lotus. They are going to take over and fill the void left by colibri, except they make a better product.

I like my Tiger, but I do use triple filtered fuel in it. If I go out or to the camp I bring the cheap Ronson. I use the cheap fuel in that one. I like those lighters the best.

Thanks All!

Does anyone own a lotus 25? Looks interesting and I'd like to hear someone's opinion on it
I was looking at some of the post in the past about lighters. I recently pick up in a box lot a colibri of London lighter. Its brass and says 3rd millennium in two locations on the lighter. It also shows a man driving a older machine of some sort. I thought it was a bike at first but its not. It also has an eagle at the top. At the very bottom it has the brand name then Korea and 64.
Anyhow this looks like something they did special and I was looking on ebay etc to get and idea but did not have much luck. Has anyone ever had one?
Yes that is it! Thank you now I at least know its age and it could be bought and shipped for 12 bucks! Thanks :smiley20:
