					Need a lighter reccomendation
				
					
						
							OK so here is the deal.  I am in the market for an inexpensive jet lighter.  I have probably 3-5 cigars a month right now(this will probably pick up in the summer once it it above 45 out at night).  Here is the catch.  I have Amazon gift cards that I would like to use to buy it.  I found a couple in the $8-$10 range that I was thinking about picking up but I thought that I would leave it up to the experts here and see what they come up with.  I would like to keep the price <$20.
 
 Also the wife says I need to pick up and ashtray for outside as she doesn't like the ashes all over the deck.  I can't imagine that there are huge differences in where I am going to put my cigar ash.

							I've seen two big-name industry insiders fire up their Cubans with a Bic lighter.
 
 If it's good enough for them...

							The Ronson Jetlite is the standard recommendation for a cheap jet lighter.  You can pick up a couple and stay in your budget.

							If you are looking for reliability under $20 I would go with Vector KGM, Jetline, Vertigo, or Firebird.

							I have a couple firebirds and they have worked great for me.  I would not hesitate to buy another.  I have some torch lighters from CI and if you'll shoot me your addy I'll send you one on me.  That should fall well within your budget.  Lol

 + RG for you(if I had any to give).  I think that I might take you up on that.
 
 Very generous.

							+1 for the Ronson JetLite. You can pick one up at Walmart for about $4 and it's one of the best lighters that I've owned.

							Ditto on the Ronsons.  I bought a pack of 4 on amazon for about $20 awhile back.
 
 I also have a Vertigo triple jet lighter that I picked up at my B&M for $9 that holds a ton of fuel, but the triple jet is a bit much, honestly.  I prefer my single jets.
 
 I have this ashtray on my back porch and like it very much.

 It is called the Vertigo Cyclone....I have sold arount 700 of these things and received maybe 2 back in returns. They work and are very reliable.
