Extended Product Information

FAQs

Does this lighter come pre-filled with fuel?

No, for safety reasons during shipping, the lighter is supplied empty and must be filled with standard lighter fluid before first use.

Can I use butane in this lighter?

No, this is a petrol-based lighter designed specifically for liquid lighter fluid. Using butane will damage the mechanism.

How often should I refill the lighter?

The refill frequency depends entirely on usage. For daily use, most users find they need to refill it approximately once a week.

Is the butterfly design durable?

Yes, the butterfly design is engraved into the metal, meaning it is a permanent feature that will not fade or rub off with normal use.

How do I replace the flint?

Remove the inner unit from the case, unscrew the spring at the bottom of the insert, drop in a new flint, and replace the spring tightly.

Troubleshooting

Lighter produces a spark but will not ignite

Check if the cotton reservoir is empty and needs a fuel refill, or if the wick is too short and needs pulling up.

The strike wheel is stiff or difficult to turn

Clean the strike wheel with a small wire brush to remove flint shavings and carbon deposits.

Flame is too small or flickering inconsistently

Check the wick for carbon buildup and trim it with scissors, or ensure the lighter is properly refueled.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Highly reliable ignition in windy conditions
  • Sophisticated aesthetic with detailed engraving
  • Rugged matte finish is resistant to wear
  • Classic, timeless mechanical design
  • Compact and lightweight for everyday carry

Cons

  • Requires manual refueling with lighter fluid
  • Needs periodic wick and flint replacement
  • Not windproof in extreme gale-force conditions

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up your lighter, remove the insert from the metal casing and fill the cotton reservoir with standard lighter fluid until saturated, avoiding overfilling. Ensure the wick is trimmed to the height of the chimney for a clean flame. Compatibility is universal with standard petrol lighter fluids and replacement flints. For maintenance, clean the strike wheel with a small brush if carbon builds up, and periodically replace the flint to maintain a strong spark. Keep the lighter in a dry place when not in use for extended periods to prevent fuel evaporation.
