I feel now I stammer fans Zippo, but all the same I would venture to put in my 5 cents.

In time I have been practicing various tricks with petrol lighter. Zippo naturally nebilo (and still have not yet, that's just going to take), but it was pretty good for the quality of performance of STAR-1, bought in transition for the 120r. specifically for the practice of tricks.

Naturally, the original petrol would be too bold to pour to his stupid tricks to burn, so I was looking for cheaper substitutes. The criteria were: slow evaporation, no smoke when burned and maximum cheapness. And I want to say that the analog was found in a local store household goods.

Namely this:

By the way, I have tried different types of goryuchku. Shoe gasoline, diesel Galosha (Yes, Shoe and Galosha, though, and in tune, but it's 2 different fuel from different producers), motor gasoline AI-95 and AI-98. Even kerosene tried. But all the same the best himself showed that in the photo.

Jar of 0.5 liters, costs just 55p. Thus, for comparison, I took a 20 cc petrol Zippo present from a friend.

Tests conducted on the lighter STAR-1. Since, by design, it does not differ from the Zippo (All the same, the idea of ​​cotton wick and nothing striking difference can not on principle), and the quality of workmanship is very good (cassettes glued very tight sleeve for flint of a thick-walled tubes, cassettes included in the body tight, but at the same time and pull it out is easy), I decided that the test would be valid even Zippo.

Prior to changing goryuchku, I conducted a complete replacement of cotton wick and new ones (for a more reliable test). Even the new flint put to the power of the spark was the same at the beginning and end of the test.

And what kind of results I surprisingly received:

1) Time of lighters, provided daily use of 20-25 times a day (Booster), until dry, was as follows:

15 days - the original petrol

14 days - degreaser

2) The burning. Watched with which attempts to ignite lighter with different means. Differences obnaruzhenno nebilo. Both tools are lit on the first try without detonation fumes, slow buildup, with corruptible things, or other side effects.

3) The quality of combustion. In this test were: equality of force (greatness) flame side sounds, flashes, etc. Differences in the original gasoline and simple degreaser not found.

4) The smell and fumes. The original gasoline and degreaser smell differently, but both were pretty weak odor. Well, unless of course the lighter stick in the nose, it is natural to feel, but at a distance of the length of a cigarette (as in podkurivanii), the smell of both samples felt very weak.

5) The side effet. Here xs. Lighter worked on both types of goryuchku the same way. How does obezzhtrivatel on metal or splicer seam of epoxy resins can be determined only after a couple of years and it is not certain what the difference is.

Well, here's a test I had. I still have a STAR-1 refuel it with a degreaser, so how can he touch and smell is different from the original petrol Zippo, but all the same force they smell identical, they burn the same and miss them on the same amount of time. 1 day difference I would not consider accurate indicator because depends on many different factors. Maybe on a degreaser lit during the test on more than a couple of cigarettes, it may at some of the days the wind was stronger. But anyway, I believe that, in principle, this change (at least for me) very worthy.

Pour white spirit I decided not to because afraid of epoxy. All the same, it is corrosive. So as not proboal alcohol, acetone and other substances that are quite well, far removed from gasoline. Degreaser in the test is basically the same type of that of gasoline. The smell of something like galoshes, but the smell is much weaker and less sharp gasoline shade.

well still 0.5 liters for 55 pe with similar properties is a godsend. Budget versiyatak say)

should also look for a similar fluid in his home town

in fact experience with gasoline Zippo I 0) pour New port. But he is very good quality, so it can be compared)

And the difference between petrol Zippo from Newport for example? Well differences specialized gasoline lighter and industrial gasoline understandable ... But different than gasoline gasoline lighter differ from each other?

zippovsky sama nevonyuchy of all. wick away too slowly turning black. yes, and it burns better.

maturity about the same. I just do not smoke, so I can not calculate how much is enough about the cylinder. I sometimes two weeks can fly, it's when I start to turn the Zippo. plus winter - often pour hot water bottle. and sometimes half a years worth of the bank.

Hello! Today I bought a large kanistrochku Zippo gasoline.

What is confusing is that the smell is not the same as in the fact that in the canister 125 ml and a large canister behind no inscriptions in Russian ... smells of whether menthol, or mint ... but the lights on the fleece is good, not pouring lighter ...

The smell of mint in Zippo gasoline - that's fine. Prior to the 2008 crisis Zippobenz and groin.

Of course, if you bought a canister in a tested, the right store, where the supply of gasoline coming from Korolusa.

Do not practice only hney fill type in Zippo shit like "galoshes" and degreasing agent, health is more important.

Hello everyone.

Today decided to become an owner of a gasoline jig.

With no experience, and given the price - bought in a place like that you can trust - at the mall, four-sided spinning such a stand.

Half-day forum wool - was lighter script))).

But here's gasoline - Black 125 ml kanistrochka zippo - in doubt. Although there bought the same.

Specifically odor.

Reminiscent of a mixture of kerosene and dichlorvos.

Burning smooth, correct.

Is this normal?

Me as a driver with the experience it seemed strange))))))

Thank you.

From this theme my insanity accordion gives to the surface, "Little Izzy record shows parents in the school diary:" Your Izzy smells bad. Izya need to wash ". Parents react - and in the morning at school Izzy pleases teacher answer parents' Izya do not sniff! Izya need to learn! "

So with gasoline as well as that ... :)
