    A clipper actually fits perfectly inside of a 410 shell casing!
    My friends and I would scour the farmers fields looking for different ones so we could personalise our clippers when I was about 13 maybe 14 yrs old. I would burn a hole in the casing and attach a small metal ring to it, then make a rope for it so I could hang it round my neck so nobody could 'accidentally' pocket it. Looked pretty dope too, well for a 14 year old metal head anyway, haha!

      The clipper is reusable so its friendly to the environment, less plastic waist. It can be used to stop a wasp entering a bottle and when on the piss let's you know your beer bottle you are drinking from when you come back from having a piss. Its got lots of other uses as well

      Needless to say, a standard bic lighter is far superior any of the seethrough plastic versions. Not just because they don't break as much, and are longer lasting. But because you can use just some car keys to easily pop out the child safety feature. The transparent lighters use a double wheel system for safety that always is more annoying.

    Clippers will always be the best lighters, at least for smokers. The fact I can collect the designs and reuse them is one thing, but that removable tool is perfect for packing down bowls or joints. Not to mention the flint.. it’s everything you want from a professional lighter that you plan to keep with you forever but still cheap enough to throw out and replace in a second

    • @stoojona1402
      @stoojona1402 2 года назад +17

      The collectable aspect along with the tool do make them an essential part of a stoners toolkit, no doubt! Only bad point is that they tend to go missing. A lot. And the cooler or rarer the design the higher the chance of them accidentally on purpose ending up in one of your mate's pockets by the end of the evening right?! Haha! We have all had it happen to us at some point and we've all 'accidentally' done it ourselves... it's the curse of the clipper, the stoner's affliction 😉😂😂😂🤘

    Jeff Jeff Jeff you forgot the most important part! Long ago I never could understand why I couldn’t get my refillable lights to fill up.
    No matter how big a butane bottle I used or how new it was I could only get any lighter to fill about less than half. I finally found out that right before you refill a lighter you have to push the fill valve down to release the gas pressure left in the lighter . Then your lighter will fill completely up.

    Clippers are great for all the reasons you mention and my go-to lighter for EDC, I smoke so always have at least one on me. Also they come in smaller sizes (at least here in the UK) and these are great for keeping in coin pockets if you want to go ultralight, or for throwing in pouches and bags as backups if you are hiking or camping. Having said that, the best type of lighter to have in a survival kit, which you don't use and save for emergencies, is the Bic, because these are filled up in a factory under pressure and sealed and hold far much more gas than you can get in any refillable lighter. I had a full size Bic which I used every day a lot and it lasted me over 6 months.

      Now the 2 of us is gona by clippers so we can refuel them. Bic can also be refueled but BUT theres like a small plastic ball that you press in from the lighters bottom side. Then you can refill and another BUT. You must be able to immediately seal the hole you used to refill as it doesnt have a valve on the bic lighters.

    • @cmdann8
      @cmdann8 Год назад

      Idk if that was an intended design, but just gravity and liquid being pushed out instead of gas, so you have more butane, as seen by big flame. I'd be care smoking like that thought. Butane ain't good to inhale. And you do inhale it quite frequently.

Okay well it doesn't tell you you can use it as a bowl packer but it does tell you that you can remove it and replace the Flint and if you can't figure out that it can be used as a bowl packer you probably don't smoke a bowl.

    I once had a clipper lighter that had a metal button that you hold down for gas to come out and the flint stem that is plastic was also metal!!! And you could adjust the flame size by a slide thing on the front!!! It is the only one of the type I have ever seen ! It was mustard in colour and looked the same as any other clipper ! This was back in the late 1980s and belonged to my dad and I borrowed it for the night and lost it !!!! I have looked for years and never found another or anyone who has seen one !!!

    Watched this last year. I came back to remember which part I could pull out. It was the flint. Thought it was the button. Now I know. I was wrong at first but I came back, rewatched the video! Now I'm correct about WHICH PART can be removed. When I'm out and about, I can use my lighter with confidence. Not one person can tell me I'm bad at operating a Clipper lighter. Knowledge is power.

I miss watching your videos after coming home from school. Now I’m too busy with work, new hobbies and more videos to watch, to watch your videos every day. You got EVERY point about the clipper in this video! I am so grateful for having your videos to watch as a teenager and then into a young man.

    The fact that you can refill this lighter is great. The only problem with the clippers compared to bic is that they do not always ignight from the first time. Sometimes you need to try three or four times before you get a fire. Bic always works from the first time. If you remove the safety cap from bic, which is easly done, you also do not need to press so hard to get it going.

    I bought a twin pack of clippers from Walmart a while back. After I got them out of the package I noticed that one of them was empty...I saw just a few little rough marks on the buttom as well. Instead of returning it I got a sudden gut instinct and tried fiddling with the buttom seal cap... And sure enough it came loose, revealing an airtight stash compartment.
    The container proved to be perfectly suited for the job.

    Blows away Bic for being refillable and able to replace the flint and reuse it for years instead of filling landfills with unbiodegradable crap.. A friend of mine just gave me one of these Clipper lighters and I thought it was disposable at first until I saw the fill valve and then when I researched how to replace the flint, I am impressed with it. Very nice design.

    All this time I’ve been trying to figure out how to replace the flint I feel so stupid now after watching this video lol.

I know you can put fuel in them but not a flint until I watch this video thank you so very much now all I have to do is make sure if I need a lighter to buy clipper the other ones are a pain in the butt to even fix and they’re a lot more dangerous to refill but these are easy is Peezy as pie. Thank you so very much young man thank you thank you thank you you save me a lot of heartache and a lot of stress and God bless you and your family and friends and don’t forget repent because Jesus Christ is on his way prophecies are being fulfilled left and right in these last days of the world so please my brother repent so we can be in heaven together and worship our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ together. ✝️✝️✝️🇺🇸

    Clippers are awesome. I've been using the same lighter for 3 years ! As long as you purge them, you're good to go for a long time ! The big plastic valves eventually wear out and will leak a bit if you're not careful, but this is easily fixable with a paperclip to put it back in place. You can also carefully strip the mechanism to clean it completely and change the wheel and spring.

    But yeah, they have a few benefits over BIC, started more as rolling lighters, the edge coming ovff to put your paper on, the spark wheel coming out to use as a tamp, made initially for people who roll their own smokes of any kind.
    But they also can be beneficial in wilderness, as the removeable spark wheel, is good when you just need a spark but not a light.

    I've got a whole stack of BICs from finding them by the roadside. I repair the still fueled ones, too, and just for fun, but I prefer the Clippers, they feel a bit more durable than standard gas station BICs, and the cylinder shape feels better in pocket IMO.

    The longer flame when tipping it over is dependent on the length of the tube that leads to the outlet. If it almost reaches the bottom then, when upright, there is liquid being forced most of the way up the outlet tube. When tipped over, only the vapor is able to enter the outlet tube which can be accelerated faster by the pressure in the lighter.
