I had trouble refilling my butane lighter

I bought a butane refill for 50 cents at a dollar store (2 for 1, just bought one), which was probably my first mistake. I tried refilling it, and smelled something a little bad, and then felt a little fucked up like a bit of Nitrous Oxide, but not in a good way.
It turns out the it was leaking. Lesson here is to never buy toxic or explosive chemicals from dollar stores. I did however, get a car airfreshener in the shape of a monkey that smells like kiwis. Can't beat something that fucked up.
-------------------- The very nature of experience is ineffable; it transcends cognitive thought and intellectualized analysis. To be without experience is to be without an emotional knowledge of what the experience translates into. The desire for the understanding of what life is made of is the motivation that drives us all. Without it, in fear of the experiences what life can hold is among the greatest contradictions; to live in fear of death while not being alive.

the only refillable lighter I have ever owned that refills more then once nicely is a ZIPPO. They are quality. not butane, but quality regardless.

I am actually in the market for a quality refillable butane lighter. Electronic and no safety shit, or if it does one that i can remove easily.
I have had cheap electronic refillable ones in the past that after would notrefill worth a shit. After you refill it, it is dead in 30 seconds of it being lit.
