Finally time to get a new lighter, suggestions?

Very helpful everyone, thanks again!

I am leaning towards the Thunderbird or Z plus insert. I see mixed reviews on them not sitting in the Zippo all the way and making it impossible to close the lid. Thoughts, before I pull the trigger?

The thunderbird insert I got came with it’s own metal shell. I got it from Amazon IIRC.

Both of my Thunderbirds fit perfectly.

Thanks again for all the helpful input everyone, I decided on the Thunderbird single torch butane, got it Friday and have to say I love it. Really like how precise using a single torch is over the triple my old Vertigo was.

Congrats and enjoy! Btw, my Lotus is not so great after all. Lights when it wants to and doesn't close all the way so gas escapes. But the Zico is still goin' strong.
