It's basically a fancy bic now. A Bicco. For a locked switch I think they could make it so the button has two stages and the second stage requires a harder press which activates a latch that catches and holds the button down, then for safety and accident prevention, closing the lid would release the latch and stop releasing fuel.

I just purchased one of these Zippo inserts to add to my collection (of only a few!) I love it because it reminds me of the traditional lighter with a yellow flame. The problem, as stated, with the liquid version is the loss of fuel via evaporation. I don't smoke but I like the idea of having a flame available plus, let's face it, it's just "neat." Thanks for the video.

I figured out how to make the flame stay lit without having to hold the button down. When you press the button down there is a small gap between the button and the metal frame. I cut a little strip of plastic and slid it in the gap. I originally tried cutting a piece of an old credit card but it was slightly too thick so I ended up using a cheap laminated card and it fit perfectly. I slid the plastic far enough down that you cant see it unless you shine a flashlight in the gap. I was honestly shocked at how well this worked little trick worked. The ignition button still has the same feel when pressed it just stays down when you release it. The only downside is you have to manually push the ignition button back to its original position else the gas will keep flowing. A couple times I forgot and I drained my fuel tank haha. After a few days I got use to pushing the button back up and it's been fantastic. I was worried that this mod might cause the fuel to slowly leak but I did this to both my inserts and after 2 weeks both fuel tanks were still full. Also the Mod is completely reversable I just used a set of tweezers and pulled the plastic out of the gap and it went back to normal. This is a great trick for anyone who hates having to hold the iginiton button.

Thats actually a very old design and tons of vintage lighters utilize that especially japanese lighters from the 50's and 60's im not sure how it would work with this application though since this insert goes into a standard case and in that design the case hinge is what opens and closes the gas to let it out, but im sure it could be designed within the insert somehow...

If they made the inserts in America they wouldn't cost triple! We've seen it time and time again when companies bring manufacturing back to America the cost is only 10-15% more and the improvement in quality more than makes up for the difference in cost. Look at Origin who makes boots and jeans, they're not that much more expensive. Zippo should absolutely make these here.

Have an off brand zippo soft flame butane insert. The lid presses down on a switch and opens a fountain when the lighter is open. A simple spin on the wheel and it lights the gas passively coming out. This is almost perfect if that chimney just like the regular zippo chimney didn’t help keeping the flame and even allows too much air both making it difficult to start and keep the flame.

The Thunderbird version I received uses the lid cam as the gas valve, so the gas keeps flowing until the lid is closed, allowing the flame to continue without holding down a button. The issue I have with that model and the Zippo inserts I’ve received to date is that the chimneys are not as wide as those of the liquid fuel inserts, so the lid rattles back and forth. The only solution is to deform the lid by squeezing it, which I have not been willing to do, so the inserts are back in their boxes and I’m back to liquid fuel.

Thunderbird also has a butane insert for Zippos, the way they worked it out to keep it lit the cam is attached to the butane. So when you open the lid the cam switches the gas on then the flint lights it traditionally. Holding the button down might as well not even use a Zippo anymore in my opinion, kind of ruins the whole idea of owning a Zippo at all. Might as well flick a bic.

I LOVE the new butane insert from zippo. I swapped over from my bics to zippo after years of wanting to edc my zippos but hating the zippo fuel itself. I like the flavor of my smoke and I could never get past the way zippo fuel would taste.. I had never gotten a thunderbird or any of the off brand stuff because I guess I am a bit of a brand snob, but probably more laziness than anything else. Anyhow, I am super satisfied with the product and cannot understate how happy I am zippo has their own. 4.99999/5 stars. Here's my couple gripes to stop it from being a 5 after using for some time: 1. The cam. Maybe mine is a bit fault but the cam on mine doesn't always go all the way down, making me have to push it down manually the rest of the way with my finger to keep the lid from closing on me while using the lighter. 2. Not being able to adjust flame size, resulting in a very large flame that is not very fuel efficient. This turns to a pro outside in the wind because the flame is still relatively wind resistant. Will be ordering another one to see if the cam is better. Thanks for the years of zippo content. Still remember watching your zippo trick videos at the dawn of youtube.

The one I received had a 4 inch flame, literally unusable for anything practical, and even taking off the bottom plate there’s no easy way to disassemble it to fix the issue. Very disappointed in the product, the knockoffs (or originals and Zippo copied them) are way better.

He has an older video on this by using a cut piece of a plastic bag. It cuts the evaporation rate in half (your lighter fuel lasts about twice as long) and I have used this with my Zippos for over 2 years and it works great and is easy to do. You can also keep the Zippo in a zip-lock baggie to keep the evaporation down. If you want a larger solution Pelican makes small airtight cases which could be used for the same thing. A Mason jar will also work.

I wonder if it's still windproof being soft flame butane. I assume that's why they made a butane torch insert before making one of these being that a torch butane is decently windproof.

they should've had the fuel switch turn on when the cam is open and off when it's closed then you have a normal zippo fuel with a butane fuel

I like Thunderbird because they fit some of the tighter titanium shells from China. That said, I bought titanium shells from China because Zippo doesn't make them. They did once but those are now legendary and almost impossible to find. You make a good point about retooling and costs. That's why they outsourced on this one. It's a shame that affordable products are so difficult to make here but a lot of that is due to the actions of government over time. I'd say that people need to think about that kind of stuff when they vote but candidates that care about this kind of stuff seem almost as rare as the titanium Zippo...

I prefer a soft flame over torch, and I prefer Butane over Lighter fluid. I use lighter fluid in my hand warmers up here in the Northern cold though. FOR ME....Hiker, backpacker, camping a soft flame is better for campfire ignition. The torch just turns my tinder into carbon before ignition......wind, well the torch is best but no campfire so a torch is useless.

Looks much more reliable than the jet ones I tried. I tried two of the zippo twin jet inserts and could get one to barely work. Fit up was much nicer but reliability was garbage.

@@Rikhardi That only sort of works. The flame is still flickering and lets itself out quite often. I have both the twin jet and single jet version. And they have the same problem. Which tells me. That either the design is bad or the quality controll is bad. Either way I am sticking with the regular zippo for now.

@@Rikhardi That is one of the first things I removed. By turning it quite high. It will sort of work for a short time with an unecesarly big jet flame. But I find that to not work for long. Meaning I find myself constantly tveaking the amount of butane it emits. To make it "work" In my opinion if you have to alter the design (removing the limiter) just to make it sort of work. The design is flawed. In comparrison I used a vector thunderbird jet insert for a while. And that was the most reliable butane insert I have used. Required no tveaking just fill it up and play.

Why is everyone so fussy about refueling a Zippo. I've had Zippo's for years and only filled mine once a week. It takes all of 30 seconds. And the fuel and flints aren't that expensive. I mean this is fine if that's what you want. I'll just keep using mine the traditional way.

I prefer the Thunderbird insert because it works like a traditional Zippo in that you don't need to hold down a button, just spin the wheel and it stays lit. I'm not sure why Zippo went that route.
