Best lighter to use..

[pu ekot]

This is simply my thought on the whole ordeal; I think the differences between the torch and Bics are that the Bics use less fuel, so the taste isn't as bad, whereas with the torchers, you're getting a full flow of the fuel and a larger flame, so more fuel is going into your fire.

I don't know shit about lighters, other than mine are always Bics for some reason because of the funky designs on some of 'em.

Counterintuitive, but torch lighters use less fuel. There are two holes in the gas line before the flame, which suck in oxygen because of bernouli's principle, and they are mixed properly so it burns hotter and nicer.

I personally prefer Ronson refillable torch lighters. Higher (and adjustable) flame, electric spark (easier to light than a flint), and only cost a few cents more. They're better (than Bics) for outdoors and colder weather in my opinion.

I have a Zippo, but I got sick of refilling it and I dispise the taste/smell. I might bring it out on a windy day.

Anyway, I'll use whatever is available. If it makes fire, it can help make me high.

These are the butane lighters.

we call those crack lighters.

bic lighters are great as well as DJEEP brand lighters....they are square shaped almost and seem to be great for bongs.

agree. DJEEPS :thumbsup:

pretty sure bics are fueled by butane

I wanted to see why everyone loves bics so much, so I got one. I actually got a bic mini because it looked cooler. Not only did it not stay lit the first time I tried it (it was a bit windy out), but the next time, a few days later, I realized how much it sucks. I like to take my hits nice and slow, with a torch lighter this is no problem because the flame goes where you point it. With a bic, you have to suck hard enough to get the flame into the bowl, as a result I got many scooby snacks. I say torch all the way.
