What gas does a professional cigar lighter use?

Answer: Unlike ordinary lighters that use kerosene, gasoline, alcohol, etc., cigar lighters mainly use butane as fuel. The most taboo thing about smoking cigars is affecting their original flavor. Butane is colorless and odorless when burning, which can avoid contaminating cigars, so it naturally becomes the best fuel for cigar lighters. In addition, here is a warm reminder: Never use ordinary cigarette lighters to light cigars, otherwise you will definitely regret it! !

Answer: First, release all the air pressure in the fuel tank. You can use a small screwdriver or ballpoint pen to press the raised ring in the middle of the lighter's filling port. Repeat several times until you no longer hear the hissing from the valve. Just make a sound. Next, adjust the flame of the lighter to the lowest setting, which can make it more compact and effective when filling. Place the lighter upside down, align the air outlet of the gas bottle with and cover the air inlet of the lighter, and press hard several times, each time about Filling can be completed in 5 seconds.

Answer: Many cigar users have reported that cigar lighters often fail to refill the gas. In fact, this may be because there is excess air retained in the gas box and needs to be deflated before new fuel gas can be filled. First, use a small screwdriver to aim at the air inlet and quickly deflate it 1-2 times. After the air inside is released, you can start adding air.

Answer: Yes, when a cigar lighter is used, fine particles will enter the lighter gas pipe, causing the fuel to burn unevenly. If dust accumulates at the lighter nozzle, it will also cause the gas to be discharged poorly. In addition, it is not difficult to clean the lighter. You can inject some compressed air into the fuel pipe, so that the fuel pipe can be cleaned quickly and promptly.

Answer: Yes! Professional cigar lighters have the same possibility of explosion as ordinary lighters, so do not expose cigar lighters directly to the sun or to high temperatures.

Answer: The gasket needs to be replaced before use. When the gasket of the cigar lighter is damaged, be sure not to ignite it, because the damaged gasket of the gas tank or gas injection port will cause the exhaust pipe of the cigar lighter to be blocked, and the flame combustion will be blocked. Once blocked, the lighter basically cannot be used again.
