Djeep Lighters are superior

They are 10 cents cheaper than bics where I come from. And the flat shape of them makes them ideal from extinguishing a bowl after toking on it.
I need to do a legit study on which brand lasts longer fuel wise. Whats your preference?

are those the cylindrical ones? I have never seen them in stores in the US. Are they possibly a foreign country thing?
I never refill my lighters. Maybe since I go through so many it would be a smart investment to get a refillable one.

They remind me of the short bus, I'll buy them if they are cheaper but I would prefer mini-Bics. I usually get lighters stolen from me before they run out so I try to get the shittiest lighter I can buy, usually the bics I have I stole from someone else by mistake.

You could probably youtube it but sorta looks "impossible" to do.
I haven't seen a Djeep lighter in probably 5 years. Or someone using one, at least. I'm sure they're on the counter by the BICs but I pay no attention.
So I vote BICs for their bottle opening superiority. Using cheap/crack lighters to open bottles is so scary  Anytime I have to I turn my head away, close my eyes, and fully extend my arms.

why cant a djeep open a bottle too? they're very sturdy lighters.
I can only find Djeeps at one store in my town. Why are they so rare

A Djeep probably could if they still have that metal shell.
 No idea why they aren't more popular People know they like BICs, so probably don't feel like trying out a new brand.

WHAT GOOD IS SHAPE GONNA DO YOU IN A COMBAT SITUATION?! 
BICs always work. Always. One strike equals a flame. And the flame is ALWAYS right, needs no adjusting, even if its runbning on the last fumes. And after the last bit of gas is spent the flame goes out from Full to zero. Spent.
I'm not exaggerating, BICs are THAT good.
In 25 years of smoking and 12 years of weed I had ONE BIC break on me before it was spent. One.
What do you reach for if the first strike has to be right? Such as when sterilizing a spore syringe needle, or in your survival kit? Yup, a BIC.

well the shape lets it put out smoldering bowls by just placing it on top. convenient.
ALMOST any lighter will light on the first strike if you do it right 
You reminded me that bics aren't adjustable, while Djeeps are. Need to smoke something like kief that only needs a littllle bit of heat? With bics, you just have to be good at cornering. With Djeeps, you can do both. 
And, I think you are exaggerating. you make bics sound absolutely perfect. They're just normal lighters dude. Sure they don't break, but only the shittiest kinds of lighters actually DO break.
And Djeeps have the larger, luxurious fuel button. Makes for easier lighting (maybe)

Damn son, Im sold.
Im gonna try to find a Djeep at the store.
But IME adjustable lighters are less sturdy then Bics. You do get the advantage of adjusting the size of the flame but they do tend to break easier. Maybe because there's more parts in the adjustable ones

There are a lot of cool custom Djeeps like that. My friend had one that was checkerboard design, but all sparkly gold colored. basically looked like a pimps lighter

IIRC djeep lighters were annoying to light for me because of the bigger fuel button.
Cornering weed/kiefs so easy  How you hit it/inhale is much more important than the heat/size of the flame IMO. My trick is to inhale like you're breathing in fresh air as opposed to smoking a cig. Straight into the lungs, as opposed to pulling the smoke into your mouth first, then your lungs. And you'll never worry about torching your kief again. Or it getting sucked into the bowl.
^Smoking like that makes joints last 10x as long. I won't let people smoke my joints if they can't hit it right  I'll pack them a bowl or hit still, but not waste a tasty J.
Plus, the faster the smoke gets into your lungs, the higher you get.

They're actually labeled as "Colt" around Europe afaik

Hm, I don't know if I smoke like that or not. I'll definitely think about it next time I smoke. It sounds worthwhile
I'll admit, the keif was a bad example. But there are other things you want a smaller flame for. Like, heroin, for example. Probably anything smoked off of foil.
And who needs a big flame in the first place? The lighter lasts longer if you use a small flame, and if you're an "experience smoker" you can get the same size hit with it.

Djeep and clipper are both superior lighters to bics. Djeeps for reliability and clipper for pushing big bowls down. Bics are just convenient to pick up because they are at any gas station

I've got a no-name-brand 3-torch butane lighter that's only about twice as voluminous as a bic and with the flame turned up, it can cast a 5 inch flame. That goes through your fuel like *that* though.
Even at its lowest settings, you cant light a spoon-style bowl with it without burning your fingers

most lighters are trash. This whole BIC/Djeep stuff is just friendly brand rivalry banter for entertainment's sake but most nonbrand lighters really are crap. Many need multiple strikings making your finger sore on sharp edges, or the wheel jams, or the thing comes undone when you strike, or the flame is inconsistent to the point of catching your brow or having to take the top off to readjust the nipple several times so you can adjust it to a proper setting.
Theres very bad crap out there.

My friend had one of these because she kept losing normal sized lighter.

I the first time I saw her whip out that big ass lighter.
Definitely not a lighter for concealed carrying

I've only used a handful of off brand lighters. I probably shouldn't have said almost any lighter. Normal lighters though. If you actually try to
Only one of them was as bad as you described. Probably only due to my lack of experience with shitty lighters though

I also found out bics work in high altitude unlike those other shitty see thru plastic lighters might be because of humidity also, noticed this while snowboarding.

QFP (Quoted for Probability)
The butane thing I recall is true from when I tried it. Some pipe smokers use them, with a special insert that lets the flame out the sides instead of the top so it lights it when they hold it, and they are super picky about "tasting" shit in their smoke (like, if you ever smoke weed out of your real pipe, it will change the flavor forever, blah blah).

Cornering weed/kiefs so easy  How you hit it/inhale is much more important than the heat/size of the flame IMO. My trick is to inhale like you're breathing in fresh air as opposed to smoking a cig. Straight into the lungs, as opposed to pulling the smoke into your mouth first, then your lungs. And you'll never worry about torching your kief again. Or it getting sucked into the bowl.
^Smoking like that makes joints last 10x as long. I won't let people smoke my joints if they can't hit it right  I'll pack them a bowl or hit still, but not waste a tasty J.
Plus, the faster the smoke gets into your lungs, the higher you get.
That's how I always smoked when I first started smoking weed.
Oh man I hate sharing joints, people just don't know how to smoke them, they suck it down so hard it burns up in a few hits and runs like crazy.

I'm not exaggerating, BICs are THAT good.
In 25 years of smoking and 12 years of weed I had ONE BIC break on me before it was spent. One.
What do you reach for if the first strike has to be right? Such as when sterilizing a spore syringe needle, or in your survival kit? Yup, a BIC.
That was beautiful.
Here's to BIC. The Ak-47 of lighters.

Djeep does make a pretty fine lighter. It's always nice to have a brand other than bic or super cheapy cuz less people will accidentally steal it.

Very true. Everyone but me(that i hang out with) has bics, so my lighters get accidentally pocketed far less frequently. Or at least, people notice when they do

The best way to not get your lighter stolen is to get a pink one.

The best way to not get your lighter stolen is to watch where it goes and call out the guy pocketing it.
I did that to my best friend and he still feels obliged to give me lighters 
But you're on to something, I deliberately bought a shit colored bicycle and smudged it with clashing paint so it wont get stolen.
