For the money I've been using a soft butane insert for Zippo style lighter by Vector. They make both normal and pipe style lighter. I really like the classic look, but not having to fill it up every week. They use a reliable flint and wheel system.

@Shrikex357 Top tip, do they do the pipe insert for Butane also?

[Th3MasTaaH]

I have both a dunhill and a st dupont, I suggest dunhill anyday of the week. You can a nice one for about £60-£90 on ebay whether thats a gold rollagas one with a barley effect or something, they really look top notch. A good working dunhill will light every time guaranteed and they are reliable. Personally i think st dupont arent as good, in price terms there about the same or more. Also its known the st duponts are more likely to break and i dont think they look as good.

@Th3MasTaaH good to get the confirmation, my Dunhill never fails and it gets some serious abuse and use. Dupont seem to be the lighter for people who like 'bling', the limited editions go for thousands....!

I wanted to buy a lighter like yours, but I wasn't shure which model yours was. I would like to know exactly what model of IM corona the lighter in your video is, a pipe Magie chrome or a roller chrome Barley pipe lighter or different model. I would greatly appreciate your help. Thanks

@kornbread069 It's a IM corona pipe magie, but the Old Boy is even more recommended, but a little more expensive.

[Shrikex357]

@dubinthedam Yes they do!

Love the IM Corona Old Boy, I am a proud owner of one. I got the one with the briar wood body and gold plated finish at a local tobacco shop for about $72. Not bad for an old boy, they were 33% off at the time. Good video and I am a believer in a good lighter for a pipe. You are right, Corona's are the most reliable in my opinion. Love the Corona you have though, looks like you said very James Bond like. Thanks, Greg

@dubinthedam its a 3rd party device (meaning it isnt zippo brand) but you can buy the insert for a few bucks on amazon

Great video! Thanks

totaly agree with you that second lighter - i have had two different models and both don't work all the time - maybe it will light once out of 9 attempts - so I got a lighter like your first one and it's great....

Just ordered one of the Peterson Zippo sets as my first nice pipe. Been smoking a cheap drug store one my Mom had gotten my for my Birthday a long time ago. I only smoke it very occasionally but have been wanting to get a nice one for a while and figured for the price a Peterson would be by itself you get a nice Zippo as well which is a great deal. Got a can of the new Zippo fuel too but will at some point get a Butane insert for it.

@Th3MasTaaH As for the table lighter it is from the line of Aquarium and was handed down to me and doesn't work but makes a very good paper weight in my office. Please do not go looking for arguments with people you don't know anything about, speacily when one was only tasting there own taste in items. I have nothing against Dunhill but I'm entitled to choose my own taste in lighters and pipes and what ever I may own.
