If you like the soft flame of the Zippo, Vector makes a soft flame butane insert. Best of both worlds.

i ignite my cigars with a tungsten arc system to prevent any flavour infusions.
I used to do that when I started out, now I just use nuclear fusion. I found too many impurities using the Tungsten method.
I go fission all the time but never catch anything.
My wife gave me an engraved zippo for my birthday recently.
the z-blazer insert is awesome! you can use just about any fuel in it although i woulod ovoid the ronson fuel from te grocery store.My girlfriend gave me a zippo recently too, and she was very disappointed when I told her that I would rather not light my cigars with it. Still in its original packaging and accompanied by a full bottle of fuel.
If I can get a torch insert, then this would avoid her disappointment of my returning her present.
Which torch insert is considered the best, particularly in regards to fuel consumption?

Does the z-plus use a flint, or is it "electronic ignition"?
