Zippo VS Ronson

[@lj9655]

Since 2010 Ronson lighters and Ronson's lighters' fluids are made by Zippo

[@d4c290]

wow

[@baptizedt]

Tuning4ever he said that in the vid too

[@elhoras541]

Iknow that

[@andreashauschild7757]

From a functionality point of view. The Ronson will do the job almost as good as the Zippo. Not having a pusher on the spring for the flint is a negative as you will damage the spring eventually when the flint runs out. Maybe not the first time or the second, but eventually you will have to replaced the spring due to damage. Other then that, they both will do pretty much the exact thing. The difference is that it does not have the flavor of the Zippo. What I want to say is that a Zippos charm is the fact that it is pretty much the same design as 80 years ago. It did not change other then get different designs. Where the Ronson insert just looks to modern. People that go through the trouble of having a lighter that requires you to change flints, fill it with smelly fuels and such are people that are inspired by the nostalgic value of the Zippo. By modernizing the design, you take away the flavor. At least that is my point of view. I love Zippo lighters. Not because they are convenient, they are not. There are much better modern lighters that require less maintenance, operator longer, remain full even if not in use longer. But a Zippo owner does not own it because it is convenient. They own it because it has flavor, history, spirit. Or at least that is my thinking.

[@torukmahtomahto409]

carburator vs injection..

[@Addrrall]

i own it because it sounds cool and good movies, good write up though.

[@aaron-4062]

Ronson: nothing worse than a zippo but it's not a zippo so it sucks.

[@rockerneverdie1]

+Vector Nuke Yeah ! Using Zippo with Ronson fluid much cheaper with equal quality

[@maticotim2414]

+MorningChemistry I use coleman stove fuel

[@rockerneverdie1]

matico tim That's usable but it's not very good for zippo's health it's got too much soot and your wick will became black from carbon too fast .

[@maticotim2414]

interesting , I haven't noticed that , but I always have a bunch of zippos on the go . Might be fun to "torture" on and see how the wick goes, wicks are cheap , but I hate cleaning the "chimney"

[@memes6858]

[@Nikitaboj]

ahahah LMAO Zippo vs Ronson Hmmm yeah thats pretty good, but it's not zippo. So I choose Zippo cuz it's Zippo

[@gplusgplus2286]

Zippo owns ronson.

[@testchannel7893]

The fins were a smart move, though they were poor quality. In my opinion, that'd be one of the few ways Zippo could improve the functionality of their lighters, if they were willing to give up their stylistic hole grid. That, and some good quality seals on the bottom of the insert, and lining the cap. It'd make for a pretty rugged lighter.

[@lazar2175]

Test Channel I could stand the seals,which obviously would need to be changed after some times. But grill is just ugly.

[@ressiebee4815]

How bout we just enjoy zippo for how they always been fuck a fuel seal and all that bullshit

[@philippkuhn2515]

@@ressiebee4815 You're right. But it wouldn't really hurt to have both the 'classic' Zippo style with its flaws and vaporization and a modern rendition of the zippo, with a seal and all that.

[@matthewsullivan1605]

You said that the flint was "probably a Chinese one." Does it matter? Flint is flint.

[@thingblaze5754]

+Matthew Sullivan I can promise you that flint isn't flint. It's big difference in quality.

[@maticotim2414]

+Matthew Sullivan cheep Chinese flints (as found on e-bay) are inconsistent , I have a bunch that seem very "hard" on the sparking wheel and dont provide that big spark that lights on first try . Luckily they are cheap and fit well in to most household trash cans .

[@joegeiger65]

+iTheGeek Zippo is made in USA

[@scbbc8186]

Not the flints - Says right on the package of both Zippo and Ronson flints "Made in Austria" "Packaging in the USA). Their regular windproof lighters are made in Bradford, PA - USA. Some other things are manufactured there but some are manufactured in other places (Like my pocket ashtray and their keychain fuel canister are made in China)

[@DividendInvest.]

when doing a comparison, you cant really use parts from a different lighter. Makes it invalid.

[@gammaofficial4266]

I am a Zippo lover ❤️

[@shaunemienstra8586]

I stopped using ronson fluid in my zippo years ago , i noticed a difference ! Im not putting ronson down , i just prefer zippo ! Now zippo makes ronson !?! They look and sound cheap , as shown in the video ! Nice job T.B !

[@samlyons9748]

All this guy's videos are painfully satisfying and frustrating at the same time.

[@keeganfoster1792]

I have my grandfathers old ronson lighter doesn’t hold the fluid as long as zippo but still a nice looking lighter.

[@maxnaser7756]

The one and only : Zippo 🔥

[@reconreconrecon]

I really like the style of the ronson

[@TorontoPopulistConservative]

I have the ronson but there is no flame beside the engravings and it is shaped exactly like a zippo. The insert looks like the ronson one in the video.

[@panziemniak1261]

I don't see any new Ronson lighters in Poland, only used ones from 80s 70s. They still making gasoline lighters?

[@AvnerRosenstein-ULTRA-LXV]

As another person commented already...Zippo and Ronson are the same company...Ronson is the cheaper version of the Zippo. What I really wanted to mention is that in America many Zippo's come in a package like the one the Ronson is in, in this video...I'm convinced that those cool Zippo box versions are sent overseas as I've never seen them in like Walmart. Maybe higher end stores or something.

[@TorontoPopulistConservative]

In my city you cant get a zippo anywhere but a tobacconist and it does come in a fancy box.

[@TheBIGLebowski-jhp9]

Just bought one two weeks ago at the tobacco store with the fancy box and everything

[@squatsnow]

Is it possible to interchange the inserts?

[@thingblaze5754]

No, it's not 😩

[@jamesmcgrath1952]

I have Ronsons and Zippos. Zippos are great while out of the package Ronsons suck. The reason the Ronson sucks from out of the package is because it's packed almost solid with Rayon and not enough wick is exposed. To make it as good (better in some respects) than a Zippo is to remove the packing and wick. Repack it with cotton and a zippo wick (as with Zippos make sure there is just a tiny bit of wick showng just above the wind guard otherwise they choke) and bingo. you'll have a lighter that's easier on your thumb.

[@semco72057]

All the Ronson lighters I owned was junk where the Zippo lighters gave me years of service and I have some of them around now and they are the ones I purchased at military bases and is valuable to me.

[@griffinw8768]

Just a heads up Zippo bought ronson so it is literally a zippo with a different case

[@FeralManSly]

Griffin W he did say that it was from before zippo bought them out

[@pugestpug5879]

“For best results use (brand name) flint and fuel” proceeds with zippo flint and fuel

[@evyn04]

I would have done a wind proof test because Zippos stay lit in wind but it’s not really like you could light anything the Ronson looked more protective

[@leprownz8224]

both look pretty cool

[@anthonyrios8566]

They are both Good lighters. Zippo has a bit more Quality. But the Ronson for About 6 or 7 bucks Is hard to beat. Just Saying. 🕷

[@sl4kr]

Перед использованием любой новой зажигалки Zippo, а в данном случае и Ronson необходимо переложить фитиль внутри инсерта "змейкой", Тогда будет Вам радость, и поджиг с первого раза, и заправку будет держать намного больше.

[@TheEnd-op2bv]

В фильме о Зиппо видно, что робот тупо укладывает фитиль на дно и вата сверху. Это очень грустно. Хотя, в инструкции на картинке нарисована правильная укладка)))

[@Andres_2307]

ZIPPO = USA !! RONSON = CHINA !! GOOD VIDEO. CHEERS. 👍👍👍

[@rainstormr7650]

The Ronson whirlwind that i have says 'made in England'

[@barryscottlinnane1298]

Mine is a 1963 Ronson Variflame light guard made in England. They had a factory in Europe somewhere as well. Your lighter is probably vintage, but I'm not sure when they stopped manufacturing in England.

[@senseikensei7470]

I think the Ronson Windii's reeeeeal problems lay in the cases. The inserts are completely fine. About on-par with the Zippos.

[@collecter3456]

Matt fucking Murray nice name

[@aidanmoss4806]

Does the Ronson insert fit the zippo?

The Ronson is of the same quality as Zippo but with an added bonus -- it's windproof -- I want one.

[@deanwalsh9360]

[@ahmedelsheikh1987]

What about a wind test? I think Windi will act bettet

[@bobbyc2768]

to all the commenters saying zippo owns ronson, that's true, just like Fender guitars owns Squire. that doesn't mean it's the same at all. they may own the factory and employ the workers, but the materials, production methods, and quality control will all be focused on being a lower cost to produce so who owns the company is irrelevant.

[@professored7169]

Yea cause the cnc machine in China is different than the cnc machine in america made in China. The only difference is thickness in bodys and components used, they don't even use good quality wood, thats why I don't like fender, epiphone/gibson or schecter ftw esp/Ltd is good too
