While too few individuals realize it, elegance and ostentatious are antonyms. The right accessories can communicate a lot of style and elegance and lighters are, perhaps, one of the most under-used ways to achieve this effect.

While too few individuals realize it, elegance and ostentatious are antonyms. The right accessories can communicate a lot of style and elegance and lighters are, perhaps, one of the most under-used ways to achieve this effect. Today's butane lighters offer great options for this as do liquid-fueled lighters. When one wants to turn heads, however, sometimes something that looks straight out of a sci-fi film really does the trick.
The Lotus torch lighter is a good example of how far butane lighters have come over the years. These lighters produce a hot, blue flame which is sure to turn heads. Because they burn with almost perfect efficiency, they impart no taste to anything they touch. For cigar and pipe aficionados, this has made them a perfect option. These lighters do not only benefit from their technology, however.
There are several different grades of butane available. If one makes the investment required for a good lighter, it is surprisingly affordable, actually, they should make the corresponding investment in lighter fluids. Look for fuel that advertises zero-impurities. This means that the lighter will perform at peak levels and that the blue flame, or flames, will burn hot enough and bright enough for everyone to see.
Refueling these lighters is a very easy affair. The canisters used to dispense the butane are designed to mate with the receivers on the bottom of these lighters which ensures that there are no mishaps. One should never attempt to force an incorrect adapter or to use a fuel other than butane in these lighters. There are various grades of butane available on the market. If one has purchased an elegant lighter, it makes sense to purchase a high grade of butane to go with it. The performance, of course, will also be much better.
A lighter should say something about the individual who carries it. Someone who spends a great deal of time at business meetings or elegant affairs may prefer a slim, classy butane that can light a cigar without a hint of fuel flavor. Someone who spends a lot of time on a motorcycle may prefer a classic chrome Zippo that lights under any conditions and that offers the head-turning "snap" when the lid is put back into place. Either way, there are plenty of models from which one may choose and the best ones will likely hold up for a lifetime.
