Zippo BLU

Filed under: Gadgets

Zippos have long been the Cadillacs of the lighter world, and other than getting regular external fashion and color updates the basics have always been the same. Until now. Now we have Zippo BLU, which trades in the old fuel for a hot-burning butane based flame. Blue and stick straight (even in the wind) it's got cool points coming out its ears. And along with the new fuel the Zippo BLU lighters have an updated external design to set them apart from their longstanding cousins, although they keep all the good stuff (one-hand operation, the trademark flint-wheel ignition system, and lifetime warranty). $30+
