Zippo

I have one of the MPL(Multi purpose lighter) it broke soon after I got it. For warranty it cost almost as much for shipping as buying a new one

I have one question, is the OUL a flicker flame like the rest of zippo's line or is it a jet like flame? I like how it looks.

this is a butane lighter so it should be the sharp flame

Sorry it took me sooo long to respond!

It actually uses both flame types at the same time!

Russ, I have the very same and for over six years, never had a problem with it, use it all the time to start the wood stove, fires in the pit and grilling/smokin'/you name it.
Zippo is very much like Weber as far as their service goes, you can email Zippo or call them, they can/will send you a package to return the lighter to them for repair. At NO cost to you. Including shipping.
I'd check it out if you haven't thrown away your MPL.

It looks to me like a lighter I once owned that used a glow coil rather than a spark. If that's the case it should be very handy if you are using it outdoors a lot, unlike the cheapo spark lighters which blow out easily these stay lit in pretty stiff winds.
