@TheNotOnly Definitely would not recommend that. Best to use triple refined butane fuel only.

@TCrum84 Not really possible to over fill it. You’ll get a mist-back of fuel once the reservoir is completely? full

There is a tool made just to adjust the flame and bleed the tank. Its called the Butane Screw Thing and it works great on all of my lighters.

@DNAProductions123 Well, if you can’t get fuel to go into it at all, sounds like you’ve definitely got a broken refill valve then. Did you get the lighter from us?

@BuyLighters no it doesnt make any noise. it used to but then randomly stopped

@DNAProductions123 Sounds like the refill valve may be damaged. When you try releasing air, do you hear anything?

i just bought a lighter and it worked pretty good for a couple weeks but now when i go to refill it the gas just sprays everywhere. i have the lighter upside down and all that. i try releasing air from inside but when i press down nothing happens. i have tried adjusting the flame height but nothing seems to work. what should i do

@HardrockinJalapeno That is the Lotus Vertigo Vader. Unfortunately, we don’t carry that one anymore.

what is the model name of that lotus lighter your using in the video, the triangular one?

@mauigirl000 Eventually, it should stop making a noise. Is it just air or can you smell butane coming out of it as well?
March 16th, 2011 at 9:32 pm
how do you know when the lighter is completely empty? i keep pressing it and hearing air come out

@deargodithurtssogood You hit the nail on the head with that statement. Pros are right. Great customer service too. Fantastic people. You can’t go wrong buying from them or following Daves advice.

Thanks!

@BuyLighters Thanks for your response, i checked all your tips, and i figred out what is- stupid thing
, i buyed other bottle of gas because something was factory wrong with filling system and bottle was pushing avery little gas in lighter (with 1. bottle of gas), and now with other bottle is fine. Thanks again and keep making great videos

@CroEuroC Sounds like there may be a problem with the ignition system. Do you hear a ‘click’ when you push the ignitor button down? Also, have you made sure there is no lint or debris blocking the burner?

I Have Nibo lighter too but i make all like you in this video and at end i hear gas and there is no flame ( i pushed air out and all things like you in this video but its not working- and when i refill it, i dont use lighter for about 8 min), and i use HQ Gas. I dont know where is problem

@mattyk2121 No. You’ll get a mist-back of fuel once the reservoir is completely full.
