Hey guys, I'm in the market for a lighter. I'm kind of getting tired of using like 10 matches to get the job done. I was just wondering what brands you recommend, where to get them, prices, etc...
Any help will be appreciated!
Thanks,

I have a Xikar that I like.
Having said that, I prefer matches.
PB-207 I love it. Do a search for it.

The triple flame torch I have is about two years old and was purchased out of the cheap stuff display stand at a local B&M for a whopping $6.99. Never had trouble with it. Grab a cheapie unless you just really want to spend a buncha cash on a lighter.

Dupont X-tend. Had it for over a year now and it has worked flawlessly. I think I paid a little over $100 when I bought it on sale.

I bought this nice Xikar lighter and got a pretty little leather case for it and I carry it in my pocket every time I smoke... 90% of the time i still end up using matches.

Colibri CX-20. $20 on ebay and near indestructable. Single flame, not an extreme torch, but works good. One bit of advice to anyone; Use triple refined gas!!!

You can find the PB-207 on ebay for about $45 shipped.

I got my Tiger brand lighter after a good review from ChefChris. I got it for less than $10 shipped and quite like it. The torch lighters do a much better job than the conventional ones.

I think I'll check out my B&M before I do anything. Mainly just because I like the guys who work there and they always have some good conversation. If that doesn't work out, I'll try ebay and see about those tiger lighters. Thanks for all the info again guys.

Bought a Xikar Lighter when they first came out, it didn't hold up very good at all and wasn't worth the price. They have differnet ones now, I'm sure they are better. Also have had some cheaper two and three flame tourches, never had any problems with them but to much lighter for me. Your smoking a cigar not a tree. What I have now is a Zippo body with a Z-plus insert. it Z-plus works great, its pretty cheap $12.00 (you can get one at www.seriouscigars.com ). Plus you can use any Zippo type body you want meaning you will have close to a one of a kind lighter none of your friends have.

Blazer CG001.
Passes through airport security xrays. Has a huge gas tank that's visible if you buy the transparent plastic case model. Very reliable.
Drawback is it's a tad bulky in the pocket.
