Does this lighter contain any lighter fluid? I am going to travel with it and need to know if this can be packed in my check-in luggage? Thanks!!!

I am afraid you can't. If your luggage happened to be their search target, your zippo probably will be confiscated.

Sorry I don't know the answer to this question. I have never placed it in checked luggage.

Yes it is flammable. I doubt that you can put it in the your luggage, but I do not know the airline regulations.

I have been permitted to carry it in on flights. I followed advice I read somewhere to freeze it as solid as possible first. I don't know whether that made a difference. In any event as long as you declare it, meaning you tell the officers as you're going through security that you have it and any other liquids, they should be able to swab it and let you through. No guaranties, but I've never had a problem. Sending it with your checked luggage wouldn't be a problem. Good luck!

It is not refillable, but I found a great lighter that is. It is the zippo flexneck lighter.

If you lighter uses liquid fluid as combustible that can be poured for refilling, YES you can refill it with this. If your lighter uses gases like propane or butane, then you cannot use it. Those lighters need to be refilled into a chamber through a valve that keeps the gas under pressure. This Zippo lighter fluid has to be POURED to a compartment that has a plush that absorbs and keep it.

Mine arrived full, if you buy this be sure to refill it with high grade butane. The cheap lighter stuff is worthless and will permanently clog this torch. Most the bad reviews are from people who put crappy fuel in them. Also it takes weeks for it to arrive

It is my understanding (from the package of butane I purchased) that each passenger is allowed one refill . It should be in checked baggage. I used my curling iron for 8 days and didn't go through one cartridge, but I used it only for a small amount of time each day. The TSA guidelines stated that butane was not allowed. I went by what the package said. Good luck!

My 13 year old grandson collects lighters (????) and when I ordered his lighter, to my surprise it came loaded with lighter fluid and flint. Hope this helps.

It does but it comes with one and like another said it won't need to be replaced for awhile. This particular lighter was even nicer in person than in the picture.

Nothing really. It fits in your pocket with your keys,while it takes up a lot less room than even the small disposable lighters. It's more comparable to Zippo than a Bic though. That's the fuel this lighter uses. True Utility is a company from Britain that make mostly gadgets for your key chain. It really is great for when you need to use a lighter and there are no smokers around you. Just don't forget to take it off your key chain if you are traveling by air!!! TSA and foreign agents would love to pocket this for themselves.

You need to use butane Fluid not zippo fluid it's not a zippo lighter. Simple fix :)

Yes it is. Same as a lighter. I didn't need any special tips. I'm on my third or fourth fill, no issues.

Hi Ada: The Zippo pipe lighter uses liquid lighter fluid and is shipped dry. You must supply your own fluid.Frank

Sorry, no, this fuel is only for Zippo and other style lighters that use a liquid fuel sorce. Other "refillable " lighters use butane as the fuel source and comes pressurized in a can.

I have to use a blow torch type cigar lighter to really heat up the element till you see some red glowing inside portions of the burner element. Use Zippo fluid too. seems to burn better. once lit burn for aprox. ten hrs or more. Don't put in bag and in your pocket for a few min. after lighting.
