| How many grams of times for breaks Zippo? How many refills enough standard (125 ml.) Cartridge? How many ignitions enough flint? I, personally, today stuck to a piece of paper and began to spray with notches to do. How will end count. Chirkanya certainly be worn out to consider. But it may have such information? |

| When goryuchku be interested to know, though says differently, some on 1.5 months to someone for three. I do not average a half - two months missing. At the expense of chert harder, many different factors, as I understand it a notch on the wheel is not all the same, plus for example after refueling if perelesh flint may become wet due to this increased consumption since the first time hardly lighter lights, in general there are too many factors. Besides silicon also are different, for example, I often take away from the familiar to the crickets and Fedor, their silicon give better spark. ))) |

For complete filling Zippo need 10ml fuel. | |

In Zippo breaks exactly 5 grams of fuel (tested on the scale), it is probably about 7-8 ml. Of silicon do not know for 2-3 months probably did not check. | |

| and I have here what that strange story with a new flint flint ... standing there when buying erased about a week and a half (of course during this time I could not "enough of" strike sharply and every 5 minutes), which I was very surprised. Then put in the absence of firm flint from cricket (it was 2-3 mm) and then became less light ... and even with all that he wore out in 5 days ... it really such notches on silica, it has so many "eats" for flint chirkany couple? Waiting for your opinions with friends. |

And why not? The company has a firm and it is made specifically for another one, and here it is not clear what the flint here's the results.! In general, if a lighter cherish not shove it "G" silicon and "G" benzo, and very soon your ZIPPO also become "G".  | |

Welcome. I'm a newbie on the site (the site stunned by the way) but Zippy possess 6-7 years. About consumables. Maybe I'm mistaken but I think not all the same silicon Zipovskaya horoshi.U me 2nd lighter (yet). "Old" in 2003 (bought in 2004) model "Brashed chrome" Seems called - and so the procedure simply with her. Not yet erased the "native" flint everything was fine. Then he bought brand silicon (different cities bought) and the problems began. Lighter or vkakuyu would not ignite properly with 1 times. Probyval all - wheel cleaning brush, cotton shifted, slightly stretched spring-loaded (by the way it has helped but not much). SPARK is still not the one with origainalnogo flint. Right now, an old woman appeared "sister" - model 2007 Venetian goda.Kupil week as. Clink, whet, - charm. But with her, I kremeshok and put in the old woman. That resurrected 1 times! Immediately changes to a whole new Zipovskaya flint - hell. Requires an effort on the wheel to clear the normal spark. But fingers do not "backgammon" won ;)) I do not exclude "clobbered" wheel on the very old lady, but not too early right? Externally, the new and old wheels are almost identical - the new as if slightly different cuts - slightly "sharper" chtoli. Your opinion, gentlemen, about my assumptions. Could it be that in lighters and "spare" worse than the original part? Same, or a different problem (packing, underfilling, infused collector precisely on this lighter? ;)
http://zippocollector.ru/forum ..... n/topic-52 - in the way similar problem ;) PS: By the way somewhere then read about various "relief" cuts on wheels - tell me where you can see the photo? |

| Thank you for your praise :)) About photo incisions do not remember, like long_boy lecturing somewhere on the forum, better ask him. Silicon - Dunno, I suppose, that the various parties may differ with different hardness, because of this and the spark is different, then a silicon sensitive to moisture, lie down somewhere and have a bit too ... not the spark is difficult to say for sure, I never bother, but what is really different spark, I admit. A wheel should not grind fast it a lifespan of 10 years of daily use. | |

| Greetings! I'm new here, but let me share observations: wheel grinds off pretty quickly (I do not exclude that due to non-original "singed" chert) for 10 years is not everyday use teeth to grind off so that the spark became noticeably weaker than at any silica - had to change the insert. General observations - worth as much as possible juzat softer flint, despite the fact that he scores deepening wheel - it's at, as you can clean ... :) And sparks it denser. Photos: first - the same Stoch wheel; second - the wheel brought on last summer of the new states Zippo (yuzaetsya constantly - smoke); third - the new insert, unused, standing in a vintage lighter :) "on the shelf". It is seen that the first ground off, the second also less noticeable sharp edges ... Figure incisors until all encountered was the same ... I think ... :)

| Not so much Stoch as beating a little ... 2 kypexin: somehow you are caring for wheels (grease?) - I have a bit of rust in any case, although the storage conditions are very dry. |

| No, why care? Although I have in my pocket lighters rotation is very large, I rarely poltzuyus a long time :) Also, I do not smoke, light a fire and therefore quite rare :) | |

Vladimir, I left to add only very little :) In the top photo - wheel lighters 2005. At the bottom - the new 1998. After six months of use shows that the incision faded a bit, but quite hammered flint. Not to say that lighter ignited bad, but seeing the downtrodden wheel immediately cleaned it fine needle. Now works like a clock :) Zippo flint about impermanence - would not be surprised. Is sufficiently representative recent cases of selling gasoline brand Zippo (in black pot) with a sharp odor of solvent, which in my opinion, is not a "buzzing". jalcom, in the middle brown patina interesting pictures, I do not rust either from non-original flints? And what year your vintage Zippo (bottom photo)? And thanks for the great photos - now we know what it looks like 10-year-old Zipp wheel :) |

| botas, about the pictures - just at the time he was very upset because of such problems as weakening spark, saw no possibility to fix anything ... and lighter favorite first. Old she is almost 14 years (C-XII) and they saw a lot, it just is vintage brass replica '37 ... hmm, what was I saying? yes, and so when I saw this topic, something pricked, I wanted to share pictures done (sorry for the bad focus places, filmed with hand, and this is like death when makroGRIPe :) as you know), I hope someone find something for yourself / just look at it. A rust do not understand where, quite possibly, non-proprietary silicon, yeah - when I saw the pictures of the next post, already stunned - had never seen a black wheel ... how so? :) |

Well, yes, black silicon is used only :) zippovskie (other here in Minsk, Belarus, just not). I drag replica-41 in your pocket for coins in jeans. Traces of rust from your Zippo, perhaps the use of "non-native" flints. A focus in normal images. Well it's still the All-macro - actually photographed through a microscope :) |

| It is, yes, exactly. :) About black surprised because I have all the wheels are gray, not such a busy, almost anthracite. By the way, you can create a theme with beautiful "still life" with Zippo, like never seen such here. I have always been drawn to capture favorite lighters prettier art's sake ... think we patrons resource has something to boast. :) |

In order not to spoil the wheel, you need to use the original Zipovskaya fuel. Since this fuel vapors do not spoil notches on the wheel. (Source - sersis Zippo in Kiev). Here you have the same time and the difference in fuel. |

| Flow: Gasoline brand 6 milliliters / "cubes" - exactly a week, on Monday filled - for dinner Monday fails to strike. Flint - as an example, my 41 th replica obtained in late June, with the pores in the daily ispolzovanii somewhere Booster twenty a day. New flint inserted yesterday - native ended. Where then lived four months. About chamfered wheel - x / z, the very first Zippo was working somewhere with the millennium, five years clean time used, the wheel quite working. | Happiness is a belt-fed weapon. |

| Hartman as a bit of talking about Imkovskih flints that they are soft ... Check on their own experience. I have a fairly fresh Zippy 2004 bought with it for 200 rubles. So here she is with a wheel that can be released ... can simply be erased. Zippo flint from it does not take off ... there something small and that was all. Lighter naturally does not ignite properly. When put in there imkovsky flint all at once became well ... sparks much ignited as intended. Just returned here to live a rather old lighter bones of it is made. There is another picture of the wheel it just eats imkovsky flint and instead of what would strike sparks, she peels it bluntly. With Zipovskaya flint everything works fine. So probably we can conclude that those who fear for the wheel should be used imkovskie silicon. Straight tribology what that =) |

Interesting opinion. Had never heard that couples nezippovskogo fuel spoiled wheel. Can anyone else heard about this? I want to go to the fuel Ronsonol or Newport, but on two zhigah I already weak wheel (on the way they want to put silicon Imco), and that's worried how else would no longer ubilis. |

| Yes, yes, yes. Silicon "nezippo" spoil Zippo, petrol "nezippo" spoils Zippo cigarette "nezippo" ruining Zippo, eblische user "nezippo" Zippo accelerates the corrosion and so on. Gasoline, he's stsuko such - evil. Pochuet wheel stolen - and well eat it there, in the dark - only worth crunch. And when the Zippo lighter is not, but in general Sarome which thread or Rowenta - so they generally pipets directly from gasoline because native then and there what not pour - a stranger, Khan wheels. People who speak authoritatively this crap, of hardened steel Tainted gasoline naive listeners, they are there or servismeny biznesmeny - must score a railroad spike in the head, up to half the length - to be seen. A hat crutch rub up on holidays to shine. And irrigate Zippo petrol, not to spoil. The first Zippo which only shed no - until the gasoline from the Army of the Urals, just to burn - like the wheel never spoiled. And in non-field life is very rarely indulge lighters "native" gasoline, more ronsonovsky love. And all the wheels, horror of horrors, intact - even lighter and even pre-war issue and does not Zippo.
PS No, well, how does a fabulous motherfucker have to be to bang is, "In order not to spoil the wheel, you need to use the original fuel Zipovskaya", eh? It's just a holiday Kokoity ....
