The insert replaced a leaking petrol lighter. Partly to save money and partly out of necessity, because I couldn’t find a petrol insert anywhere, and I felt bad throwing away a housing that was still in good condition. The experiment turned out to be more than satisfactory. It works like a petrol one and lasts longer.

Militaria.pl is a premium dealer of Zippo.
Zippo is an American icon of style and reliability, present on the market since 1933, when George G. Blaisdell created the first windproof lighter that was easy to operate with one hand. Since then, more than 600 million units have been made, and each of them is covered by the lifetime warranty: "It works or we fix it free". During World War II, the entire production was supplied exclusively to the U.S. Army, which cemented the brand's legend worldwide. Zippo became part of pop culture and appeared in more than 2000 films and TV series, including Die Hard, X-Men, and Hairspray, and its distinctive clicking sound was registered as a trademark in 2018. In 2007, the company showed its innovative side by introducing the Zippo Blu line of butane lighters, which retained the iconic look and sound of the classic model.

A very good option and solid quality. I have several lighters, all petrol-fueled, so if needed I’ll be able to quickly switch them to a gas one, and outdoors I can light it without difficulty even in strong wind.

A very good alternative to a lighter that is used only occasionally. The gasoline Zippo dried out very quickly, while this one holds gas much longer. It works well in the wind.

In my case, a gas insert works much better than a traditional petrol insert. I don’t use the lighter that often, so when it was needed, it turned out that the fuel had evaporated. If someone likes torch lighters, this will be an ideal solution for them.

Zippo Butane Single Flame Insert is an attempt to modernize the traditional Zippo lighter by using gas instead of gasoline, which aims to increase its functionality in everyday use. This gives us cleaner burning, no gasoline smell, better wind resistance, the ability to adjust the flame, and greater efficiency. Cons: the insert does not retain the characteristic atmosphere of the classic Zippo, is sensitive to the quality of gas used (cheap gas may cause clogging), and works less efficiently in severe frost. To sum up, it's a good alternative for urban use, especially if someone is bothered by the smell of gasoline. However, for lovers of the original Zippo, it may not capture its unique style.

The flame generated by the device is strong, stable, and so far has not caused any problems regardless of weather conditions. Refueling and adjusting the flame intensity are easy and intuitive.

Super gas insert for a Zippo petrol lighter. The petrol insert dries out quickly and you can smell it, but here we have a modern option. My lighter has gotten a second life.
-
It completely transforms a petrol lighter into a modern gas version. Large capacity, lasts a long time on one fill. The advantage is that you can put it into your favorite case.
-
The insert is solid, well-made, characterized by high quality and has a convenient flame adjustment feature. It is handy, relatively lightweight, and equipped with a large tank, allowing the gas to last a long time even with frequent cigarette lighting. A practical and decent insert.

I have a few Zippo lighters. I have been using gas inserts with a classic flame for some time now. This time, I decided to use an arc insert in one of my Zippo lighters. It’s a great option for EDC. However, the evaporation of fuel and the need to refill it in the classic insert can be bothersome. For someone who uses a lighter occasionally, this is the perfect solution. The lighter click is the same, and the look is also cool, so it’s a nice alternative. My note – it only fits the "regular" and "vintage" versions. The inserts do not fit the "slim" or "replica" versions – those have different cases. The lighter always ignites on the first try. In the 2005 case, it fits tightly, and that's good because the insert doesn’t slide out by itself. Sometimes, it fits loosely in newer lighters and can stick out a bit. However, the cases are not always perfectly sized – if needed, it’s best to insert a folded paper underneath the insert and then slide it into the case. This is just a tip in case someone is new to the "Zippo" topic.
