Why Torch Lighters Are the Best for Cigars

Unlike traditional soft flame lighters, torch lighters produce a focused, high-temperature flame ideal for evenly toasting and lighting cigars. The pinpoint control helps avoid over burning the wrapper and ensures a clean, smooth start to your smoke. Because they’re butane fueled, torch lighters burn clean without imparting unwanted flavors, like lighter fluid does. Tested and designed to be weather resistant makes them perfect for outdoor use whether you’re at the golf course, beach, on the back patio, or 12,000 feet above sea level scaling a mountain. For both casual smokers and seasoned cigar aficionados, a quality cigar torch lighter is a must-have tool.

How to Refill A Torch Lighter

Refilling a butane lighter is a fairly simple process, but it requires some care to ensure safety. Here are the steps to follow:

1. Ensure the Lighter is Empty: Before refilling, you want to make sure the butane fuel is completely gone. This can typically be done by pressing the fill valve with a small tool to release any remaining gas. Do this in a well-ventilated area away from any open flames.
2. Adjust the Flame Height to Minimum: Typical lighter's flame adjustment is done using a dial or screw that controls the flame height. Before refilling, turn this to the lowest setting. This prevents the flame from flaring up too high when you ignite the lighter after refilling.
3. Prepare the Butane Canister: Hold your can of butane fuel upside down. You'll see a nozzle on the top of the can.
4. Align the Nozzles: Now, take your lighter and turn it upside down. Align the fill valve on the lighter with the nozzle on the butane fuel canister.
5. Refill the Lighter: Press the butane fuel canister down into the lighter. This will release the butane gas into the lighter's reservoir. Keep them pressed together until your lighter is filled. You'll often hear a hissing noise as the butane goes into the lighter.
6. Wait Before Ignition: Once filled, let your lighter rest for a while before igniting. This allows the gas to reach room temperature.
7. Adjust Flame Height: Adjust the flame height back to your preferred setting and you're ready to go.

Frequently Asked Questions About Cigar Torch Lighters

What’s the difference between single, dual, triple, and quad flame torch lighters?
