Zippo Lighters.
If you use it often, sure. If you don’t smoke and just occasionally need to light fires, get a butane conversion. It’s a replacement for the wick, which pops into the Zippo shell. It doesn’t evaporate over time since it’s sealed.
Electric insert too!
Never understood these. Old fluid, stink, durable but for a lighter I just don't get the price and love. Non smoker.
I put the electric insert in one of mine, charged it in 2021... still works!
Now the electrics are good. I'm a believer there. Just not the old school kind as much when lighters are so abundant. Only issue with electric is the flame is often needed for other non smoking purposes and electrics have no flame.
