FAQs

Does this lighter come with fuel?

No, for safety during transit, the lighter is shipped empty. You will need to purchase standard lighter fluid separately.

Is the lizard design etched or printed?

The lizard design is engraved into the metal for a durable, tactile finish that will not fade like paint.

How often do I need to replace the flint?

Frequency depends on usage, but typically a flint lasts for several hundred strikes before needing replacement.

Can I take this on an airplane?

Most aviation authorities have strict regulations regarding petrol lighters. Please check with your specific airline before travel.

Is the matte black finish prone to fingerprints?

The matte finish is designed to be less reflective and generally hides fingerprints better than polished chrome or glossy surfaces.

What kind of fluid should I use?

Use standard liquid lighter fluid (naphtha-based) commonly available at tobacco shops or convenience stores.

Troubleshooting

Lighter fails to ignite

Check if the lighter is out of fuel or if the flint has worn down and needs replacement.

Flame is inconsistent or flickering

Ensure the wick is not charred or too short; trim it if necessary to expose clean cotton wick.

Fuel evaporates too quickly

Ensure the lid is closed securely when not in use and avoid leaving it in direct, high-intensity sunlight.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up your lighter, lift the insert from the metal casing and fill the cotton packing with standard lighter fluid until saturated, being careful not to overfill. Reinsert the mechanism into the case and wipe away any excess fluid before ignition. For care, keep the wick trimmed to approximately 1/4 inch for optimal flame size. If the spark becomes weak, replace the flint using the tension screw located at the bottom of the fuel insert. Always store your lighter away from extreme heat when not in use.
