Cheap butane lighter bleeder tool - #zippomafia
Переглядів 7852 роки тому
If the budget is tight and you can't afford an official bleeder tool like the great one that Kismit featured in his video: ua-cam.com/video/irD-9Z8W-lg/v-deo.html, a ball pump valve is a better option than using a knife or other object that could damage the fill valve on your butane lighter. #zippomafia

Using the flame of your Zippo lighter, you are able to erase the details on shipping labels, medicine bottles, store receipts, or anything else printed on thermal paper. Not only is it cool to watch, but this can help prevent identity theft from naughty people sifting through your garbage. #zippomafia

    Have you tried using lamp oil (paraffin) in those? Mine seem to work OK but Mountain Parameters advise against (still don't know why). It's just higher order hydrocarbons in paraffin oil - definitely not more dangerous, rather the opposite as far as my organic chemistry knowledge goes.

    Old video but i got a question, after the wick is not working/dead or whatever, do you just pull the wick or do you have to do the s shape trick again?

    • @wayneholmes637
      @wayneholmes637 3 місяці тому

      Just pull it out a bit then cut it. No need to do anything else. After doing it 2 or 3 times, depending on how much you cut off, you can repack it with a new wick.

    More catalyst equals more heat, use more in the head. Char prevents proper evaporation thus less heat, you may not notice the benefit of Carbon felt but it is there. Leave half or more Rayon and use a little Carbon felt each warmer.

    The hinge is where it leaks from. Its always a good idea to store a zippo wrapped in a small plastic bag. This stops vapour evaporation. A zippo will normally last a few days without wrapping but if you wrap in a plastic bag it can last over a month.

    Great video and amazing mods! How do feel about the rubber gasket vs the sandwich bag trick? I guess the sandwich bag has the advantage as you said of providing a barrier to the metal so it doesnt scratch.

    Zippo flints suck,If you want a better quality flint. Get a full size disposable lighter and take the flint out of it and use it in your Zippo. It is a harder, longer lasting and better sparking flint.normally you will have to cut the flint in half... Another thing you can do is use Coleman camping fuel in your Zippo lighter.burns the same as lighter fluid and is a heck of a lot cheaper.a gallon of it runs under 20.00 bucks...
