Zippo 65827 Butane Lighter Insert - Double Torch

Good quality as you might expect from Zippo and works perfectly. As with all of the Jet lighters you need to bleed it between refills, which isn’t mentioned. Much better than an overfilled petrol lighter that burns your leg through your pocket. Plus no petrol smell.

The media could not be loaded. Very reliable, this replacement double gas flame is perfect for a lighter which honours an RAF F4 Phantom Squadron.

Works better for us lighting cigars. A full tank lasts a while; the flame is robust and it was a really good price.

I've been using butane lighters for a few years now and I am very fond of them. Unfortunately most Zippo inserts I've found unreliable and to stop working after a short while, not to mention the iffy flame quality.This item suffers slightly from these issues. Keeping a sustained flame is not advised. However overall, I found it much sturdier and functional than the off-brand ones I had, and the twin jets add an extra bit of flair to it.

For it to light it needs to be mostly full of gas. Once pressure drops it doesnt like it. It uses its full capacity of gas after 20-30 cigs. I blocked one of the nossles with cotton wool to stop both running and that enabled it to last a very tiny bit longer.The flame screw would only allow the flame to light within a small range, (eg 0% - 35% and 65% - 100% no lighting, 35% - 65% iffy at best). Complete waste of money. ZERO STARS

Brilliant, this fited straight into my zippo cases and is great for lighting cigars. Highly recommended

This is what I needed, originally I have a lighter fluid with wick etc, but wanted to keep my case lighter as it has my initials on it, this butane zippo fits nicely and less worry over lighter fluid

Firstly i'm a fan of Zippo products and really wanted this to be great. I gave it a months trial and heres my findings.The insert didnt fit my case very well in fact opening the lid twice caused it to cantilever the insert upwards to the point it wouldnt close. I should note that i tried it in another case and it fitted tightly so this is probably case related rather than the insert itself but i have heard of others with the same issue.The twin flame is impressive and useful for cigar smokers or lighting candles quickly etc. It can be adjusted to huge aswell if thats your thing. However it really doesn't hold much gas at all. It runs out really quick, in fact it runs out so quickly you start to doubt if it'l fire when you next need it. This is my biggest issue with it. If you were someone who required a lighter several times a day I think you would need the lighter in one pocket and a can of butane in the other.Build wise it seems of a much lesser quality to the original fluid style, its not as heavy duty feeling and the chimney doesnt have the original style holes which in my humble opinion cheapens the look.I also noticed that its not windproof in the slightest. A gentle breeze could knock it out.I read in other reviews that people were having issues after refuelling and found a tip online to adjust the limiter screw on the bottom to ensure it can work consistently and with lesser grades of butane. This does seem to work but when you are doing this... you are wondering why you should need to modify a brand new item to make it work consistently and after refills? Again kind of strange for a big brand like Zippo to have such an issue.Final verdict. I have refitted the original insert.
