I worshiped here .......

After all is presented here-luchshe do not buy zippo

I used to (13 years ago) when I was in school ... enjoyed by Chinese fakes on Zippo (100-150 rubles. Per Unit. Do not remember) silicon are different from cricket, the disposable lighter, but certainly not original, but about petrol too just do not remember hunting ... poured everything off. 95, 92, alcohol, medical itp And the ability to sunbathe lighters from the first time in summer and winter, not rotten in the wind, just a little smoked ..... (to put it mildly).

In general, I recommend to all POLZVATSYA THESE ZIPPO and original components for them.

It is my opinion ....

best (and easier) to change the insert under warranty. as well - try the needle good clean teeth. can be ignited. or replace the wheel, if there is one, of course.

I did not panic, but people ask me often. For these users, I recommend clean gasoline. The needle does not roll. Proven personally. Also, I noticed that the dark wheel cuts spark better than gray. Observed lighters a year, the wheels are different.

Two lighters, while using roughly the same. Pay attention to the black dial.

Notches in excellent condition, but for chromium as Bud is erased and there are complaints that the lights from 2-3. Color wheels are also different. The black it darker. Fuel, flints, wick all trade. On the black dial is a little scroll and then kicks a spark. On chrome can make a full turn and a spark will not even appear. We must make the effort easier. That is why the difference?
