Zippos

Zippos are frequently viewed as "elegant" - though being elegant is not a Zippo's main objective. Most people have learnt that Zippos are in fact safer than disposable lighters because opposed to the latter, Zippos cannot become a bomb like disposable lighters can (by being mistakenly left to the sun light, being thrown against a wall,etc.).

A good Zippo lasts much longer, with the same amount of fuel than a regular disposable lighter does. As an additional advantage, Zippos may be left "turned on" for a huge variety of purposes (such as burning wood, etc.) - this is essentially important for campers who rely in fire to perform numerous tasks.

With the flexibility of uses that a Zippo features, it is incredible that more people do not own one. The only downside that I can think of for Zippos is the fact that if a Zippo is left intact, the fuel will evaporate. Though this might not be a problem while the zippo is inside a fresh house, or if the weather is cold; it is a problem for many campers who find their fuel evaporated (the rate at which the fuel evaporates during Summer is surprising). Nevertheless, this problem can be easily addressed by following some tips against fuel evaporation.

Featuring a life-time guarantee, many people have found that Zippos last much longer than disposable lighters (by much longer, I mean MUCH longer). As a matter of fact, if you have a Zippo from the Second World War and you wish to have it renewed, you just have to send it to the Zippo Corporation and they will send you a replacement.
