Done with Bics, whats the best lighter?

I want a good re-fillable butane lighter. And not a Zippo, got a few of those and they only work for campfires and cigarettes.

Anyone have a good suggestion for me from experience? I'll spend $30. I've never had a Colibri or the other expensive ones, are they worth it?

Anyway, just throwing that out there. Thanks for reading the rant.

Ive never had anything better than a bic, but my buddy uses this site called dealextreme and he bought some cool little refillable lighters that kick ass.

Bics are da shit. Just buy a few at a time and you'll be good cause yea it sucks when they run out and you have to go to the store to buy another every couple weeks.

Well, I'm getting some good laughs for such a stupid question.
skiskate, i will check them out thanks.
Charfizcool, Heck I might just buy a case of them a once for like $30 and be done a year. Great thinking.
fishguts, hilarious. the first time I ever smoked weed was through a toilet paper roll with some aluminum foil. Never again after that and I've got a Volcano now.
TeaTreeOil, i would hope you can adjust the refillable ones. i remember when you used to be able to do that with Bics.
CrackarJax, I do want one of those now that mention it. Good idea.
KushKing, looks like I have been defeated. There just is no replacing a Bic.

Damn!

try clippers, they're the european version of the bic...not refillable but still a good alternative.

but in all seriousness, walmart 5 packs of bics come with a "free bic"

Ha, I just found where I can get 50 Bics for $45. lilbrown dot com.

I'm still mad at them for always running out right when I get home and I have been waiting for that hit all day and I have nothing else around that will make fire.

New plan is to go ahead and try to find a good refillable, but keep it as the back up for when I run out of the 50 Bics I'm gonna buy.

i seen these in high times and got some on ebay pretty cheap. theyre pretty cool, good for lighting inside the big bowl of my bong. its all organic hemp line dipped in beeswax. you light it and use it to light your bud. supposed to eliminate chemical taste from butane lighters. still requires another source of fire tho.

I once had a bic lighter slip down my defroster vent in my truck during a cold winter in Kentucky. I drive my girlfriend over to her sister's to babysit their kids and we got into an argument of which I cannot remember the details of today. Anyway we get there and I've had the heater on full blast the entire trip. She gets out of the truck and goes inside and I'm just sitting there thinking when....BAM!! that lighter exploded inside my heater compartment. I mean to tell you it made one hell of a bang. Of course I have no idea of this and think that little Susie had gone in and grabbed a gun :lol: I'm ducked on the floor board looking for the bullet hole in the window when her brother in law comes out and opens the door to find me in a fetal position. Brian is like, "What happened? are you okay"? :lol:

No, no I'm not okay :mrgreen:


Damn lighters....


out. :blsmoke:

Ive had these type of bbq lighters before they are pretty sweet for the bong.

Havent seen them in store for awhile. Thanks for the rep too man!
Those grill lighters with the flexible neck are great, although you cant carry them around with you all the time. They are good for your home light, you know how friends always accidently take your bic. And great for bongs and pipes, no burnt thumb or trying to light a bong at weird angles "like the original grill lighters
