You can get standard and torch style butane inserts for Zippos and get the best of both worlds.
i prefer using a zippo lighter it has always worked better for me and i think in general is better and the disadvantage that the zippo has can be solved by using a plastic bag not only that bic lighters break very easily unlike a zippo
Edit: alot of these points seem very irrelevant which makes the zippo even better like weight just being honest a zippo is not heavy to where you will notice it and yet it is still so much more durable also you can only really light what is left of your bic once it breaks
The exotac titanlight doesn't evaporate.. its got o rings and a screw down lid
If you subscribe to the two is one mentality one of each in your bag would be ideal if only for the windproof nature of the Zippo.
Evaporation? Evaporation is not just about Zippos. All petrol wick lighters evaporate since they aren't air tight. I have a Myon Autolux lighter from 1934 from France. It's a petrol wick lighter and evaporates just as the Zippo does, though at a lesser extent since the Myon is more sealed than a Zippo. That's why they came up with the innovation in the 1950s called the butane lighter: A wickless lighter whose flame strength you could regulate and it also doesn't evaporate since it is airtight. That being said, if you want a Zippo that doesn't evaporate, you could get yourself one of those butane inserts from Zippo such as the torch and yellow flame inserts. I personally, though, would stick to the old-fashioned petrol wick lighter since it's more reliable than a butane lighter. One of those seals break in a butane lighter, and you're almost always done. Plus there's something about the petrol wick lighter I find fascinating, lighting up the old-fashioned way.
I prefer the mini-bic in the little aluminum cover that makes it look like a zippo and it keeps the water off of it.
Interesting. Thanks for sharing.
Zippo Lighter dies when it falls into water
BIC doesnt
No it's literally the opposite I have tested it bics always take hours to light again when in water and zippos can still light even when water gets in even zippo fanatic made a video about it proving it
Wtf is it good for survival lol smoke cigs
No thanks.
