I wanted to use the z-plus in my old zippo and it is too tight of a fit. It does fit a newer zippo. Any ideas???

Leaked butane to the point that it could only carry a good flame when it was so close to out that you could only truely light 2 cigars before refilling. You really get what you pay for here.

Since I posted my review I have overcome the loose fit of my Z lighter insert in the Zippo body. Like many things in life the solution is incredibly simple. I wrapped about 2 inches of transparent office tape (we call it "sellotape" in Australia) around the butane reservoir section. Hey Presto! As snug a fit as the original fluid insert.

Fed up with underperforming butane lighters, both cheap and expensive models. So bought 2 inserts from Famous-Smoke. Bought cheapest Zippo locally (F 06 model), threw away fluid insert, filled butane insert, and proceeded to use when lighting my daily cigar. Been using it for about 8 months or so with no drama. Expel air before each refill. Still using first insert! Only criticism is the loose fit of insert in Zippo body. But that is only an aesthetic issue. Works great, and highly recommended by this cigar smoker. Cheers.

I own two...the best lighter for cigar lovers. You can light up in any kind of weather...and the fill lasts a long time.

This is the cheapest thing on this site, and it proved it with in a couple of days after I received it. The thing just stopped working. I should of known something was up, with the $ 10.00 price tag. You know that old saying you get what you pay for? Well it really rang true this time. Don’t waste your time. Spend a few extra dollars and get a lighter that’s worth while. Leave this alone.
