Double Torch Butane Insert

These inserts fit my Zippo perfectly and work just like I hoped. The dual flames get really hot and look super cool, which is great for lighting cigars, and the burn is consistent every time. They’re windproof and feel really solid, high quality overall. Refilling is simple too, so I don’t have to worry about running out quickly. Seems to last longer than traditional lighter fluid. No leaks and doesn't dry out. This will save you money on fuel in the long run. Definitely a reliable upgrade for any Zippo owner.

I bought this butane insert over 4 years ago and it never really worked that well. I tried the suggestions to remove the limiter, etc... and then the thought occurred me to recently to adjust it without the limiter. This worked. I was able to find the minimum point where it would stay barely ignited. Then turned it until it was using fuel too fast. Then backed it down to find a good sweet spot. Then I re-inserted the limiter based on this. Now it easily ignites and stays on, and repeat ignitions are 100% reliable. I no longer have to worry about the Zippo fuel drying with the old wick setup. I can also buy Zippo butane fuel relatively cheaply at my local store. If yours doesn't ignite properly, stay lit, or uses fuel too quickly - I suggest playing with the adjustments with or without the limiter to get it to work.

I couldn’t wait to receive this, I wasn’t a fan of the lighter fluid cotton balls that zippos normally come with. I’m not a smoker and usually just carry a zippo for cool and fidget factor. But, once in a blue moon I do use it. For example, last camping trip I had to cut a length of paracord and when it came time to melt the tip so that it doesn’t unravel I find out that the cotton balls have dried out. So, the answer is this, a self contained pressurized refillable butane torch insert. But, upon receiving and slipping it into my zippo (perfect fit btw) it doesn’t work. I clicked and clicked and it would light once every 5 or 6 clicks. I start to curse, got ready to return the product and fire off an angry review then realized after reading other reviews that this seems to be a common problem. The electrode tip is vertical and it had to bent towards one of the jets to create an arc to light up the butane. I also found that if you lightly press on the igniter for a split second before fully pressing you get a consistent ignition. So, after doing all that all is good with world and now I have a functional tool. Too bad it doesn’t come in brass to match my zippo.

Do check out YouTube video on how to fix butane insert. It is working well, after adjusting the valve. **REVISED REVIEW** This is rather disappointing: it turned out to be one that only looks good. The Butane Insert performed great initially. As I began using it, I noticed the flame getting shorter. I maxed out the flame, but to no avail. now one month and 3 days later, it altogether stopped working. I pressed the igniter button next to my ear, and I do not hear any "Sssss..." from the nozzle. No gas is escaping, when the ignitor button is pressed, even when the piezo clicks. I appears that gas is not being released at all to be ignited. So, I find this item suffers from two defects: 1) Gas output control lets out gas only at the minimum strength; 2) Igniter button does not release gas. So I checked Zippo website for return instruction. They want my address, email, and telephone, and picture of the date code on the insert. Too much hassle, and not giving out my personal info for this POS. Zippo wants to mine my personal info, in return for fulfilling their warrantee. So I checked the return policy on the item page on Amazon, and it may be returned, IF UNUSED! By the way, the return window closed exactly one month after purchase. Well, sad to say it, but: GOOD LUCK with buying this piece, future customers! It's a gamble. It's not the same Zippo, at least not after 2005. That was last time I bought one. It remains a perfect Zippo specimen. ** ** ** ** ** I filled it for 5 sec initially, before I attempted to light. It was touch and go in the beginning. I filled it until the gas began to leak (to the full), and it lit up everytime. The trick is to depress the button lightly to let the gas out, then depress all the way down for the piezo to spark. Voila! twin lovely blue flame shot up. I will see about its longevity and gas retention after a period of enjoyable use. AS for $15 (almost) price? Well... I wish it was cheaper, but if this insert last long, I think I can accept it. But I bought it for the novelty value and coolness of it.

Wondered if it would fit in a Chinese knockoff case and it did. Butane lasts longer than the normal lighter fluid and I like having a torch for lighting cigars so it's cool that this brought usefulness to something I had laying around.

Güzel duruyor ancak elimdeki zippo boş kutularının içinde biraz küçük kaldı bendeki şeylerde sorun olabilir şuan için çalışıyor ve güzel duruyor.

安全性が良くて使いやすいけどガスを最大にしてもそんなに日がでかくなるわけではない

Good product 👍

Very responsive and fit all zippo housing I have

Reliability with this insert in your zippo. Just remember to keep topped up.
