How many Flames??

Yup, what he said.

I have big matches galore, several disposables around the house, I have at least 3 torches besides the Z-Plus, and I always ALWAYS reazh for the Zippo / Z-Plus.

Everyone I have heard from says the z-plus is the cat's ass. Mine never worked very well at all. I filled it once, and it has sat in my drawer since. I may have to tinker with it sometime though, because from the reviews I have heard I would still recommend it.

I had issues with mine 'till I bled it right.

Use something like a golf tee and purge it through the filling port. Takes about 3-5 minutes to do it properly. You can hold it down 'till the hiss stops, and then you have to pump it for a while longer until nothing else comes out. Make sure you do it in a quiet place so you can hear the hiss.

I use the cheap colibri firebird (I think Walmart even carries them). As long as you use good fuel and purge it every time you fill it up, it works great. Mine's still going strong.

I'm definitely interested in the Zippo insert so i can start using my zippo again.

Single flame is all you need. Anything more and you are just wasting fuel.

Check cigarbid. Sometimes you can get a great deal on a nice lighter. I got a colibri vortex for about $40. I used single flame lighters before, I just like the vortex, dual flame better. It has a bigger fuel tank also. I think it retailed for $70 to $80. Check ebay also.
