I have a slew (ever wonder what a slew is?) of Zippo lighters, they haven't been used in decades. Totally obsolete but nice curios. When I was smoking cigars and pipes I wanted a really hot concentrated flame, so I bought a Blazer Micro Torch. Little tiny refillable butane torch with a pinpoint jet flame. It would warm a cigar and then light it in no time. Better still, I could use it in the close confines of electrical boxes to solder contacts too big for a solder gun, or to loosen thread locker on screws - especially gun screws. Now they also sell a wide flame torch too, so there's a choice. The butane reservoir is clear so the fuel level is no mystery and they refill with a standard can of butane lighter fuel. They use a piezo-electric spark for ignition, no flints to wear out.

And like everything else in the world, Amazon sells them and the refill canisters: http://www.amazon.com/Blazer-PB207C...p;sr=8-5&keywords=blazer+micro+torch

Now don't get burned.
