Thunderbird: The Zippo that never Dries Out

what is practical and what I simply enjoy carrying.
example of such a thing. While not the most dependable fire starter, there is a
romantic or maybe a certain nostalgic air about it. Many post-apocalyptic
movies show Zippos doing their thing, from the brain damage inducing “The Postman”
to “Wall-e”, it seems that the last man
on Earth (or the last robot) will tote
around a Zippo… a Zippo that for some mysterious reason still has fuel in it

for some time but never actually tried one.
I liked the idea of using my Zippos, but I was a bit worried about the
actual insert’s quality. Turns out the Thunderbird is pretty well made and
comes with a two year no proof warranty. While the gas container is small, it

discretion. A smoker may find himself refilling it too often, maybe even more
than the original insert if he smokes a lot!

about refilling it, and still have a flame when needed.
esthetically appealing. It looks very much like a normal Zippo and people wont
be able to tell the difference unless they check the lighter closely and find
just a little hole where the wick is supposed to be.
about the Thunderbird insert is that it uses the original flint and wheel spark
mechanism. This means that it can still be used to start fires even if we run
out of gas as long as we can get hold of some dry tinder.
of use and carrying around before I get a better idea of how durable the insert
is but I like what I see so far and the reviews are very good.
for retirement an old Zippo of yours, give the Thunderbird insert a try.
