...Zippo the Leica of the lighter world, but both companies have long pedigrees and an almost fanatical dedication to not changing.

Worse than that, it evaporates; try using a Zippo that has been sitting in a desk drawer for a few months, you wont have much joy The Zippo Blu range is a full range of...

2008-02-06 15:07:16 by Joel Johnson in Boing Boing Gadgets
...Zippo in townand it's quite ugly. The "Zippo BLU" takes the original windproof design and tweaks it, switching the fuel from liquid to butane to produce a jet blast of flame. You know, just like those $5 lighters you can get down at the gas station It's a strange product for the company. It may be more windproof and add less of a gassy taste...

Zippo lighters were always awe-inspiring but always lagged behind when it came to functionality. Beautiful to look at, yet horribly inefficient. The stench of liquid loaded in the Zippos are unbearable and worst of all theyre gone with the wind within no time. Probably Zippo manufacturers took note of this blonde-babe syndrome and came up with...
