Let's discuss lighters!

Hi, I am still a new toker/non-smoker and know little about lighters but I'm trying to spend some money from a card that is being canceled soon and I'm looking at refillables.
What is everyone's opinion on lighters? What is the least harsh? Are Zippo's any good for grass? Butane lighters? Or just ordinary BIC lighters. I'm looking for something refillable.

I've never used anything besides bic, I try to light the corners of the bowl so I can conserve and get as many hits out of my weed as I can, a zippo flame is too big for that so I'm not a fan of them.

I have used this lighter exclusively for years. I started using it because I couldn't light a smoke in my car with the windows rolled down(no air conditioning). I used a standard one at home occasionally when smoking weed, but the Ronson never failed.

Ive always had issues with the refillable lighters. It seems like once u refill them, it doesnt work no more.
However, with microtorches, u CAN refill them and it still works.
I love microtorches, they are kinda spendy, but worth it!
Also, Djeep lighters are pretty dope flame lighters. Very comfy to use.

I have refilled it for years without any problem whatsoever. I have a few of them, and the only thing that has broke is the spring action for the cover top.

i thInk you are holding your flame tip way too close.
I hold my microtip like a 4 inches away from the bowl. Any closer and the bud burns too quick.

Dogg, I am a proficient farter, and I was a birthday clown in highschool. That job would suit me quite well.
I'm a cook and a majority of the pilot lights are broken.

My throat was like scorched earth last time I used a butane lighter to smoke a bowl and that was in a bong. Just use a BIC

Zippos don't work well for smoking herb. The fluid tastes pretty bad. I would stick with a Bic. That way when someone snags it you won't be too bummed.

Clippers are the best. They cost the same as bic and are refillable. They also use recycled nylon.

I never smoked with a zippo but the lighter fluid is expensive and it doesn't last long in the zippo. It would all evaporate in a few days to a week. I have a clipper lighter that's been here for a few years but I never used it for smoking.
I wouldn't worry about refillable lighters cuz you're going to wind up losing it anyways.
I would just do what patlal didQuote:

Colibri makes a few soft flame lighters that are really nice. i have a delta
if you want the style of a zippo, look into an IM Corona. regular zippos obviously arent too good for smoking a bowl
