I bought a Colibri and think it is a royal pain in the .... I have since switched from cigars to pipes and no longer even know where it is in the house. I found that even though I used their fuel, it was a very finicky lighter. I suggest you get something else.
I just got the new JR catalog and they have a new series of Colibris that all come with a lifetime warranty. It breaks, you send it back to Colibri and the fix it or send you a new one with no fuss. I'm sort of tempted to pick one up.
+1 Colibri is a major *** made in China.
Personally, I am not wild about torch lighters... so far i've never used a lighter that has worked as well, or as reliably as my S.T. Dupont - but they are brutally expensive.
You mentioned Zippo... I read somewhere Zippo just came out with a Torch lighter that looks/feels like their standard offerings.... might want to check that out.
Joel what makes the Duponts so good I looked them up on line they look great but none of the sites have a lot of info on them.
OOPS;
I almost forgot to badmouth Prometheus Lighters. Ken.
COuple questions on the Dupounts, Flint or elec, are they all the same except for looks or some dual flame some not, the ping etc
