Blazer PB-207cr

Tired of spending money on expensive lighters that only work a short time so I bought the Ronson Jetlite. I found them at RiteAid and bought 4 for around $5 each. I have been using one for over a year and have not even opened the other packages. :tu Now I can spend all the money on cigars.

Ewwwwww! I used a new Blazer today! The press-down starter button has a safety now - a little roller wheel thingie on the leading edge of the igniter button. You have to roll the wheel before you can press-to-ignite. Very... safe. Still one-handed operation. Still marked PB-207.

This is leading edge Blazer lighter crap, you all. You heard it first at CS.

Child Proof gizmo easily foiled with quick flip of a small flat head screw driver Moo. You will never have to callus your thumb again :)

Has any one seen or used any of these Blazer 'knock-offs'? Both look like they have the same manufactured design and one even claims to be made in the same factory as the Blazer.

Being the factoid, hyper-critical/hyper-skeptical, forensicator that I am, I needed to research these. I ordered one, and while it seems to be of similar, though not exactly the same, quality to the Blazer - it is in fact NOT related to Blazer in any way, form, or fashion. A quick email to Blazer confirmed, as well as emphasized why one should steer away from knock-offs. Now, to find a real Blazer and re-coup my losses.

"Hi Don,

Thank you for the e-mail.

That is not a Blazer Torch.
It’s an inferior knock-off made in China for about $1.50, hence the low cost.
Our items are made in Japan, not “the same factory in China”
We would never suggest buying them for obvious reasons.

There’s also a serious safety concern as well since it’s a poorly made item filled with butane that may sit in your pocket, car or home.
In our opinion, it’s not something you want lying around.

If you have any further questions, please don’t hesitate to ask.

Thank you.

Best regards,
