Excellent point. Im in a super warm climate so it never at the forefront of my mind but in colder climates that could be what really makes the difference. And thank you my friend, I really appreciate that
They do a butane insert eith soft flame, a single jet insert and also a double jet insert. They even do a pipe insert for lighting pipes (hole on side not the top for the flame). Also they do rubber caps for normal zippos to stop fuel evaporation.
Grandads are a bad influence. I never met mine but I remember being fascinated in his tobacco pipe mom and dad had to hide it. Now years later i want a pipe. Just something cool about old timey nick knacks

I’ve purchased all of their inserts. The butane ones are absolutely incredible! I don’t even smoke; I just love carrying a lighter with me (and a leatherman). I prefer the butane ones over the traditional wicking lighters because the lighter fluid is messy and can stain the inside of the case. And like you said, the fluid evaporates and the lighter won’t work when you need it to. But with butane this thing is next level amazing. Great video!
They do actually make a different butane style insert I bought last week. It's just like a regular zippo using the flint wheel to spark, and gives off a yellow flame just like a bic lighter. This one is my personal favorite.
✅ I have several standard Zippo lighters... I switched a few to the butane inserts...I've found them to be quite handy for lighting damp tinder to melting silver solder for wire to wire connections and the bonus is I don't have to worry about the standard fluid leaking out into my pack or pocket.
I bought the butane insert a few weeks ago and its excellent in terms of quality. But I noticed that the torch flame burns the cigarette at a much higher temperature than a soft flame and the cigarette doesn't taste and feel the same. So I switched back to the standard insert. I'll keep the butane insert though for other stuff.
Anthony, very good improvement on a time tested design, I got a lighter fluid burn on my leg from over filling one and putting it in my pocket years ago , great review, thanks for sharing, stay safe, God bless !
I found a Ronson metal detecting a few months ago. Was very interested since it was stamped British Empire Hong Kong. BICs rock and you can never go wrong with a ferro rod. Just a pain if everything is wet
This makes me want a cigarette so bad, it’s been 6 years, lol. My favorite favorite thing was to play with my Zippo, there’s something about that sound! Smart thinking Zippo 🏆 super smart upgrade.
I prefer this to a Bic, I weld sometimes and Bic style butane lighters have had welders forget they had the lighter in a front pocket, hot metal burned through the pants and plastic butane tank and exploded, resulting in a bad injury. Very unlikely this will occur with the Zippo.
I had a matte back zippo as a teenager. I flipped it open, and the lid flipped right off. Pin fell out. Who knows when. I knew I could send it in and replaced it for free. But again. Kid. Bought another one. Say. In 2015(?) plain silver from walmart.Started using it the last few months. I bought both butane knserts. So far, I've liked the soft flame butane insert.
Been using Zippos off and on for decades, when I saw the butane inserts I bought one. Personally I like it better than the old school lighter fluid. I smoke cigars and it gets 'em going with the quickness.
Yes butane is better as it seals the gas inside and offers a clean fire, butane inserts are also much cleaner for Zippo brand lighters as it doesn't create rust on the insert or case. I just ordered Zippo Yellow flame as I don't like the high butane cost of torch. Once I get it I'll have a butane, arc, and original zippo inserts all with cases so I can use all energy sources as fuel.
A metal clipper is my every day lighter, there's few situations in which anything else is required. I have a souffle torch and some other stuff in my backpack but the clipper is sturdy, reliable and refillable, doesn't even have to be metal, the nylon ones are good enough!
Excellent video, I just ordered the Thunderbird pipe insert as I love the look of lighting my pipes with a zippo but like you mentioned not being a cigarette smoker I don't use it every day and would constantly run out of fluid if I had the standard zippo pipe insert.
Its really the best of both worlds. Greatness of the zippo without the liquid fuel problem. The one you showed a few months ago looks just as good though
This is an old video, relatively speaking. Zippo now makes a soft flame butane insert that also uses flints for ignition. I know because I just bought one the other day. My only complaint with it is, like current Bic lighters, you can't adjust the flame.
my big gripe with the butane inserts is that they use a plastic piece under the cam, where the regular zippo ones use a steel piece. the plastic can wear and not make as positive of a snap. it also kind of tells me that it’s more disposable than a normal zippo insert which is a shame
I've got the single torch insert since I rarely use lighters but the only unfortunate thing is I have to have the flame turned all the way up in order for it to work. Just sucks since I go through fuel quicker. Not sure if the reason it only works on the highest setting is because of my climate but kinda annoying.
Great video ... Didn't know about this new feature. I always liked that zippos fit well into the watch pocket. Being a non smoker also I think this may settle the problem of evaporation of fuel worry. Have you ever heard of IMCO lighter probably not it is a commonwealth thing it is a auzzy made lighter - it has a better design that prevents fuel evap. better. Doesn't fit in the watch pocket as well as the zippo.
Ah Ha! So im not the only one that puts their zippo in that 5th pocket. I knew i couldnt be the only one. It fits so perfectly. Ive never heard of the IMCO, but being a nonsmoker i guess i just stick with whats familiar
@@PalmettoPrepared we have both here zippo more popular because of marketing .. I looked you can find them on Amazon. I also found this comparative video. ua-cam.com/video/l4mgkmw30QM/v-deo.html
Strange that Zippo is not making a single soft flame insert on butane which looks identical to the standard insert. Personally I ordered a thunderbird vector soft flame insert with flint-wheel ignition. Would be nice if Zippo had something like this for sale.
Nice man. Cant say im a huge fan of zippos...had too man cheap ones dump fuel in my pocket. I do like the new one though. My wife got me a usb rechargeable lighter that thing is sweet.
Its cool, use whatever works best for you. Just as long as youre always carrying some form of fire. I love the zippo, have for years. But hate the fuel problem. I just got excited there was another option
I think the classic is better, you can estimate how much fuel you got left by smell and moisture in the insert. I carry a zippo and a cheap torch lighter.
Use what your comfortable with. I just hope everyone is carrying some form of fire starter in their pocket. This thing has helped me immensely as it gets so hot so fast, things like cardboard stand no chance
The plastic bag trick , after you fill yout insert take the corner of a frezer bag and place it over the felt pad then place it in the Zippo case this helps fuel econemy a lot or the double torch single torch yellow flame or pipe lighter yellow flame electric ark ! Mike the Zippo Fanatic 77 Outdoors told me this trick !!!
How you mentioned the need to refill compared to how much you use it, I don't think they were meant for non smokers lol smokers use em often so expect to refill it
Winter is coming when you fill your liter fluid insert cut a corner of a freezer bag over the bottom of the insert you will save fluid and under 32 degrees F lighter fluid works best and windproof the plastic bag trick and repack with cotton bacon !!!
Thank You for the video. Could we get the butane insert and replace it for regular zippo casing? Even we buy a new zippo, we need to purchase the butane insert separately? How frequent do you need to change the fint?

It's so frustrating because all zippo has to do is seal their inserts at the bottom and add a tight-fitting snuffer to the lid. Rhonson does both of those things and also uses an internal hinge which is much sleeker and more stable than Zippo's external hinge but I can only find their butane versions of the improved zippo design
The vector thunderbird has been out for a few years as an insert but the zippo version just dropped at the beginning of 2020. So its relatively still pretty new. Figured i could be a Guinea pig for everyone else. So far Im pleased with it
I prefer the dual as i use this more for general farm use. I would suppose it all depends on what you plan on using it for. The dual does everything i need it to very quickly so im partial to it
light it 60 times at the lowest flame setting? actually u need to adjust setting few times while using the lighter: 1) from lowest when lighter has just been refilled and tank is close to full. 2) to the highest setting when tanks is close to empty. and that limiter should be removed or readjusted to make lighter functional when there is less the 50% fuel left in tank.
Could be better if we're being honest. Sometimes it takes 2 clicks to light, other times it takes 5. Rarely comes on first strike unless it's hot outside
I cant speak to that as i do use it just not often as I dont smoke. Have gone a month between refills which is leaps and bounds better than a regular fluid zippo

What the heck!? Come on! This is a prepping channel so it better be two sticks you rub together for hours and die of hypothermia before you get your fire! Good video. I like those lighters myself. There is one drawback I have had with the butane ones is if I leave it in the car by accident in the hot summer I have had it leak out the gas. So, just don't leave it in your car! ;-) This looks better made though so maybe it could handle the heat better. I keep a firesteel in my wallet though in case of total disaster.
It always stays in my fifth pocket so hopefully thatll never happen but butane and over 120 heat dont mix. Bad juju leaving that in your car in the desert. Redundancies matter so good on you for the fire steel
you killed my father prepare to die.....good zippo, must have....always always reminds me of my dad for sure. I can smell the butane even thinking about it. I love Zippo (I have both regular and torch) plus their hand warmers are a basic of my kits.

Hello. There isn't any information about this online - are you able to blow out the flame jets of the Zippo buthane version?
Yes you can. The flame is just as fragile as a regular zippo
Hello, I'm thinking of buying, but I'm undecided between the single and the double.. What do you recommend?
I prefer the dual as i use this more for general farm use. I would suppose it all depends on what you plan on using it for. The dual does everything i need it to very quickly so im partial to it
light it 60 times at the lowest flame setting?
actually u need to adjust setting few times while using the lighter:
1) from lowest when lighter has just been refilled and tank is close to full.
2) to the highest setting when tanks is close to empty.
and that limiter should be removed or readjusted to make lighter functional when there is less the 50% fuel left in tank.
can you please tell me if they are windproof seeing as bic lighters always blow out please reply thanksss
They aren't wind proof but they would be somewhat wind resistant. They light when bics won't but can be blown out without much force
