About this deal

For cigar enthusiasts, the torch lighter is just as much a necessity as a good humidor or a cigar cutter.

About: A Northern Ireland based maker with a propensity to cause trouble and freshly constructed family.I've had the same torch lighter for almost 4 years. It's BAD ASS! I've already replaced the sparker and the hoses once, and I lost all the case screws, so I had to electric tape it together when I had problems with using hoses that were too small (they kept popping off the couplings from the pressure). Anyhow, NOW it leaks from the fill valve somewhere. I don't know if it's the little rubber washer that prevents gas from escaping or not (though I suspect it is), but I took it all apart. I can't do anything to the bottom, as I don't have the tool it would take to remove it from the tank. I DID take apart the TOP though, and after unscrewing and removing the spring-loaded nozzle, the inner piece it screwed on to had the spring and this tiny-ass little pointy guy, that fits both nicely in the spring AND nicely in the nozzle. But it can't go in both. I turned the gosh darn WHOLE THING upside down when I was getting it outta there and didn't realize the spring and pointy guy were in there. I even dropped the spring and spent a considerable amount of time looking for it. My wife was the one to find it, actually NOT on the floor, but on the bed, where I was sitting and working on this thing. If you decide to go this route, keep your fingers clear of the lighting wheel and other metal parts of the lighter, as these become extremely hot when exposed to the flame for that duration. Flat Flame Lighters The fuel tank of a torch lighter stores the butane in liquid form. This takes up the bulk of the lighter and releases portions of the butane in gas form when the user activates the release and spark button. This is a flaw I'm sure they know about, but will not fix, because sales are just too good with a slightly flawed product that no one can figure out so they just buy another one. Unique to torch lighters, they burn a cleaner flame, and you’ll often hear cigar enthusiasts complain about other lighters due to the odor produced, or even the color of the flame. Both are primarily due to the fuel source.

Thanks to the air pressure from the orifice, the mixture of gas and air is ejected out of the burner hole at a dramatically faster rate. As mentioned above, the TORJET is refillable with standard premium butane, and the lighter didn’t seem to have any issues when I switched brands during my testing. To refill the device, simply flip it upside down to reveal the fuel valve on the bottom, purge the remaining air with a draw poker or similar device, and then insert the fuel can’s stem and fill until you see the fluid close to the clear plastic bottom. Just like the other guy said, either your battery for the sparker is out of juice, or you somehow broke your pizo-electric sparker. One of the more important components of the torch lighter is the protective cap that covers the nozzle(s) when not in use. This is especially important to prevent accidental ignition for any reason, and it also prevents potential burning after using the lighter. Because torch lighters burn so hot, 2500 degrees Fahrenheit, the metal around the flame nozzles will become extremely hot, and the protective cap keeps you out of danger and discomfort. Adjustable Nozzle An interesting downside of the single jet torch lighter: all the heat and flame is directed at a single point, which produces a higher heat level at a very specific placement. You want an even distribution of heat and flame. The larger the cigar, the wider the spread. Adding an additional nozzle helps.Of late, cigar manufacturers have been producing certain cigars with larger and larger ring sizes—even exceeding a 70 ring cigar. A multiple-nozzle torch lighter will allow you to light those larger cigars with a more even, consistent flame. Some smokers would prefer a single jet lighter in these situations so they can control the burn over a large area, but triple and quadruple jet torches can be helpful if you’re smoking large cigars and want to speed up the process. Soft Flame Lighters First look on the bottom, there should be a small (mostly likely philips head) screw not far from the filler valve, unscrew it, usually that is the only thing holding a lighter together, now pull the casing down off the rest (hold on to the cap and carefully pull the casing off) now you should see the guts of your lighter, there's probably 2 pins holding the assembly together. Enter the safety pin, Use the pin or wire to push the pin out of its hole. A third and most recent option for creating a spark has been lithium ion battery torch lighters. Similar to piezo ignition lighters, these use an electric current to create a spark and produce a flame, but they claim to have an easier push-button mechanism than piezo lighters require. The downside, however, is that these are charged with a USB cord, and you’re not always aware of when your battery is low, opposed to a piezo ignition torch lighter. Protective Cap As a cigar enthusiast, you’ll eventually come to own several torch lighters of various styles, sizes, and types. Often you’ll meet enthusiasts who keep a collection, or even have lighters designated for certain occasions. Regardless, consider the importance of storing your torch lighter properly to ensure its longevity and that it still works when you return to it.
