Well, i own a few, but what about you people here?

Care to share your experiences with it and also your collection.
Apart from owning the best lighter brand in the world that makes a unmistakable 'click' sound whenever a Zippo is opened, what makes you a happy owner of one or a few?

I always keep a Zippo with me in case i need it for any emergency, and of course, just to use it to light other people's cigarrettes.

P/S: Smoking is bad for you.

Oh. Interesting. Seeing the light makes you release stress eh?

The fluid's about RM10 per can. Quite okay i guess, considering that other lousy branded ones are like RM5 each.

P/S: I'm a non-smoker too.

there's only two Zippo lighters sizes, IIANM.

one is the normal size while the other is the slim version.

yours is the slim version?

How about your wick and flint? How often did you need to change that?
Don't tell me you didn't change at all.

MyDin so cheap? thanks mate

Quite easy. Look at the box, the construction and the guarantee paper.
There is no way a fake can reproduce the same 'chink' sound when a Zippo opens, and all fakes do not close properly and as easily as a Zippo (a Zippo makes an assuring 'thud' sound when being closed).

Wow. Ninjiao. That gold one looks amazing.

Btw, Zippo users. If a Zippo is fully-fueled, and sometimes it can't be lit no matter how many times you try to light it, what kind of problems would cause this to happen? Because i experienced this quite a lot of times. Makes me think Zippo is not so reliable.

Any of you experience this too?

Cool. Will wait for your pics.

BTW, anybody can answer my previos question?
If a Zippo is fully-fueled, and sometimes it can't be lit no matter how many times you try to light it, what kind of problems would cause this to happen?

I don't really know if over-filled. But usually after i fill, when i turn it flat down on the table, the fuel seem to leak out. So i guess it's over-filled.
Thanks for the information. Will try to just add a little bit of fuel in.

Thanks for the suggestion. Will try this too.
Well, also, i wonder how long can the wick last when it's black? maybe that is why my lighter is having a hard time to light.

nice. pictures, bro?

just look around at shops at shopping complexes. i bought mine from a watch shop in 1Utama. the shop is located under the TGV cinema.
and remember, always ask for best price. the retail prices are usually jacked up.

That is correct.

nice army zippo you got there man.

where is the best place to get Zippo fluid, guys?
i bought from a grocery shop, and i think it's imitation one.

raymond that's a very nice collection!

very nice wood zippo! mind telling where u got it?

Wow, that's seriously a neat piece of lighter. Where'd you get it from?

Awesome! Can PM me the price for this?

Hey guys. Hope you all have been well throughout the pandemic and lockdowns with your Zippos.

Just realised that back in year 2020, Zippo had released official Butane Inserts that fit into a regular Zippo case!

Anyone using it yet?
Looking to hunt for one soon for myself too. 😊
