Table top lighter

[Bsneed51]

I've been thinking about picking up a table top lighter. I like the Xikar one, but it's a bit more than I think I want to spend. So I ask. ..what table top lighter do you have and do you like it?

Not my pic, but I have this one from Alec Bradley. It is pretty awesome.

See is any vendors have one as part of a package when you buy cigars.
Or at least one on sale.

I've a friend who carries one around with him like it's regular size.

Works for him

I own the small Bunsen you show. I also own a Vector that looks like the old blow torch we used to burn paint off a house. Cost about $80. What is great about it, is small sharp single flame that does spot corrections like a Surgeon. Also has an enormous gas tank.

In the end, it's your choice. But at least look at the Vector and be sure to shop it, lots of price variations.

I looked at that one. My only question is can you do any touch ups with it? I'm trying to avoid having 2 lighters outside with me at all times.

That's the rub right there, touch ups and restarts near the end of the cigar.

Nope, I'd say that's a no. I keep my Vector out for use by friends and what not, but it isn't good on touch ups. I keep my S.T. Dupont on hand for that.

On my second one in about 10 years(somehow the first one fell off the table in the garage and broke). Works like a charm

Ended up grabbing one of these. For the price it's hard to beat.

Shoot...I wish I knew you were looking for cheap.

While nice - there are some stores that have these cheaper.
