Pros
If ur a fan of od green. This is up ur ally.
Blue case is a nice bright blue darkish shade. Easily fixed with a swiss army nice or pliers to pull out the lighter via the chimney slots. Bought this along with one of the butane replacements to replace my old cigar lighter.

Works ok but evaporated fuel super fast. Wick is very short, (less than an inch) as well causing the flame to not be as potent. All you nostalgia seekers should just give up.
Piece of garbage. Amazon calls itself earth's most customer-centric company. Save your money, buy a multipack of bics, and remember fondly the days when made in usa actually meant something.

A little complicated to fill and being in ca amazon doesnt ship here—acquiring butane for my other insert and fluid for this one were insanely expensive at a brick and mortar
