Lets see here... My main lighter is a cheap one that I got from smokingpipes.com (it is like a refillable bic pipe lighter) and I use that because I have no fear of breaking it. After that it is my Zippo, then my two Old Boy knockoffs and then matches!

My main lighter is a Bic because I usually only smoke while driving. (The car is the last refuge of a smoker, isn't it?) It doesn't blow out as easily with the sunroof open. I also have a 60+ year old Nimrod I use when I smoke on the deck. It doesn't like the wind very much.

Bic. Plan on buying an Oldboy soon, but will always have a bic for back up. I have a Zippo but the flavour throws me too much to be used on a regular basis.

I have and old boy that I keep on the table of the house, and two Zippo's with vector pipe butane inserts. I have had several Colibri's in the past...but they never stay working.

Colibri, then restaurant box matches whenever I can snag them, then I rub the tobacco really fast between my fingers. The last method mostly makes a mess.

My Zippo with a pipe insert is the main source of heat, a bic as a backup and matches as my backups backup!!!!!! :puffy:

A bic right now. Every lighter i had that cost me more the 20 or 40 died. I have a zippo but can't find it for the life of me and i have a forever match thing that dosn't work well and is a pain to use.
