Zenga Black or Blue Refillable Electronic Rubber Lighter with Clear Bottom with Flame Blocking

After many years of trying different lighters I believe this is the best for everyday use. Lasts the longest before breaking or failing than any other that I have tried.

fits nicely in the palm of the hand and has a good solid feel to it. The action of the lid feels good and it lights on the first click reliably. The slider to adjust the flame size sits just below the hinge assembly making it hard to accidentally move it while the lighter is in your pocket, but accessible enough to adjust it when needed without any extra tools.Have used it outside in the cold and moderate wind without issues, having slid the adjustment slider to about 3/4 of the way to max.The lock slider is in a suitable place, making it easy to use. Seems to take quite a bit of butane, so don't expect it to burn through a tank quickly.The rubber coating gives a nice tactile feel and prevents the lighter from slipping in your hands.Overall a good purchase at a low price. Will need to wait a bit longer to determine its longevity.

Iv'e used Zippo on and off nearly 40 years but they drink lighter fluid. Iv'e used useless Ronson lighters that pack in after a few months refusing to light and the clipper lighters are okay until the flint wheel jams.Zenga however I have used nearly for 3 years and to be honest they surpass the other three brands in value for money, durability and usage. Small, robust and practical they are windproof and still works after being dropped and fall in a puddle. Iv'e owned six of them and two of them stopped working after the flame jets got blocked. Average lifespan of these little Zenga is around a couple of years but costs less than half the price of a pack of 20. Sobering thought but they don't need to be used to light expensive coffin nails.

They are ok and perform well at first but I had them for not too long and they have started to fail. I expected longer out of them.

To clarify I play Airsoft my use is different to most, used it for about 4 months, I use it for lighting bangs and smokes that are dud from strike plates falling off or have gotten wet (now i tend to just drop the strike plates and go straight for the lighter), I jacked the flame taller than the cap to make it easier, I needed the straight jet flame from this so I could light them quickly and from any angle.The other use is for recoiling spring ends after cutting, heats the spring red hot in 30-40 seconds.Its been left in my pocket several times going through the wash and still works.The only thing I would say to make it better for my use is a more heat/flame/spark proof cap, when you light smokes and bangs, a firework with a more aggressive initial fuse, its melted the cap surface inside in the small amount of time its close to it but hasn't affected use yet.

9/10 Great little blow torch lighter. I use it for heatshrinking cables and lighting the BBQ. Gas a clear bottom so you can see how much gas is in it.

This lighter arived early and it was full of gas, i only dont give it five stars because the pun holding the lid on started coming out this morning but it was easy to fix

Not a bad wee lighter but bought it for camping/bug out bag and it goes out with some moderate wind so no good in high wind as described which is why I purchased it and why i have gave 3 stars, you could use your hand to sheild from wind but with these lighters one little movement and you could burn yourself pretty bad.Apart from the going out easier than expected/described it's a cool lighter that I'm sure would suit most needs and it feels good to hold and the lock function would be handy to get a fire going.It takes alot of gas aswell so I don't see it running out any time soon even with frequent use.Postage was pretty quick aswell with adequate packaging.Over all I'd suggest getting this lighter for either everyday use or for weekend camping just don't expect the flame to stay in a moderate breeze lol.
