My idea of the perfect lighter is one that has a few specific qualifications, in addition to the usual side mounted flame that is common to most pipe lighters:
1: It doesn't poof out a bunch of air/fuel as I press the button. The Lotus condor I have tends to blow all my loose leaf out whenever I light which is a pain.
2: Has a good fold out tamper attached that is decently wide and circular, not with a straight edge on one side like most do, my lotus condor got that right at least. If it has a slight straight edge that's fine.
3: Has a fold out poker/pin that is decently long, not this scooper business like the lotus condor.
4: Has an EASILY adjustable knob for flame size, but NOT so easy at to be adjusted on accident just by holding the damn thing, or catching on my keys in my pocket. The condor got this right.
5: This is a lot to ask and I can live without it, but a sight gauge to see how much butane is in it. I walk and smoke a lot and I hate always carrying a Bic just in case I run out of fuel.
6: Is fairly durable and too colorful. I prefer black or chrome, or possibly an earth tone. Going for manly here.
Does anyone know of a lighter that has all these qualities?
