"Best" outdoor lighter

[TLM]

In the past I have used the ubiquitous BIC but does something (much) better exist?

I guess clippers are probably a bit better, as you can replace the flint and re-fuel them. Never felt the need to delve into the more expensive options though.

My ‘emergency’ lighter is a clipper. Useful as well as you can remove the flint and use it just for the spark.

Generally I have a zippo with a butane insert for the day to day.

Have BICs.

Also couple of Zengaz ZL-1 after seen them recommended by some on here.

Model ZL-1 • FLAME JET

One of Zengaz's best-sellers, the ZL-1 features a compact cylindrical shape and a flame-lock switch to lock the flame.

ZL-4 look good, but couldn't find a seller, when looked around a while back.

Model ZL-4 • CASE JET

The ZL-4 comes with a waterproof case, and a side button to pop the cover making it ideal for a wide range of activities.

I’ve got some Clippers and one with a mini extension on it that’s great for lightning candles and spirit stoves.
