Luxury lighters in metal, with brand and finish
With a luxury lighter you are not paying for a bigger flame but for what you feel in your hand: solid metal instead of thin plastic, a hinge that snaps open cleanly and a finish that still looks right after years.
Virtually everything here is refillable, because a lighter you throw away is by definition not a luxury lighter.
What makes a lighter a luxury lighter?
The difference is in material and construction. A cast metal body is heavier and does not deform, the lid closes with an audible click, and the flame is adjustable rather than fixed. You notice that most after a year, when a cheap model already has play in it and this one is still tight.
Material and weight
Solid metal sits heavier in the hand and keeps its shape. Look at the finish of the edges and the hinge, because that is where you see the difference between cast and pressed first.
The brands we carry
MYON and Silver Match make the more heavily finished models, often with an adjustable jet flame and several jets. Champ sits just below that and is the choice if you want the finish without the top segment.
As a gift
Some of these models come in a gift box, which helps when you are giving it away. Check as well whether it has a cigar holder or a cigar punch, because that makes it immediately usable for a recipient who smokes.
Always fill a luxury lighter with pure butane gas at 45 PSI. Cheap gas leaves residue in the valve, and on a finely adjusted model you notice that in the flame straight away.
Buying a luxury lighter at PyroProducts
This category holds the more heavily finished models: metal bodies, adjustable jet flames, several jets and often a gift box. All refillable with butane gas.
If you smoke cigars, have a look at the cigar lighters, because that is where the models with a punch or cutter are. If you mainly want something eye-catching rather than something classic, those are with the cool lighters.
When comparing, look at the material, whether the flame is adjustable, the number of jets and whether a gift box is included. Which models hold up best in use is in the 5 best cigar lighters.
If you do not know which brand, let the weight decide. Pick up whatever feels heaviest and only then look at the flame, because with these models weight says the most about how it is built and how long it stays tight.
Frequently asked questions
What makes a lighter a luxury lighter?
Material and construction. A cast metal body, a hinge that closes tightly, an adjustable flame and a finish that does not flake. Not a bigger flame, because cheap models have that too.
Which brands of luxury lighters do you sell?
Among others MYON and Silver Match for the more heavily finished models, and Champ for the segment just below. The product information states per model which material and which type of flame you get.
Are luxury lighters refillable?
Virtually all of them. That comes with the territory: a lighter you throw away after one tank is not a luxury lighter. You fill it with pure butane gas at 45 PSI.
Is a luxury lighter a good gift?
Some of these models come in a gift box, which makes giving them away easy. If the recipient smokes cigars, pick a model with a cigar holder or a punch.
Why should I use pure gas?
Cheap gas leaves residue in the valve and the burner. On a finely adjusted model you notice that straight away: the flame starts to sputter or stays low, even with a full tank.
Does a more expensive lighter really last longer?
Usually yes, because the body and the hinge are sturdier and the flame is adjustable. Wear ends up in the ignition, so fill it with clean gas and store it dry.
