You're welcome. I had seen the Tranzpack ads, but also seen TSA variations on what was allowed. The BOTL who posted the link to the FAA bulletin made the difference, because I can now carry with the lighter the government approval of what I have it in. Good luck. I just like having my own trusty lighter if possible.

By the way, I have (and love) a IM Corona Double Corona soft flame lighter. You are allowed to carry that on a plane on your person. First two times I took it, TSA guy had me open it and light it to verify soft flame. Last three trips, with it in the small tray going through X-ray, they haven't even questioned it. Perhaps TSA is getting better at recognizing torch vs soft flame...

Nice, I love a soft flame. I actually ordered that same lighter on Amazon and the box was stolen off my front porch! They refunded me and I ended up picking up something else locally. I'd still like to get a Double Corona at some point...looks like a fantastic lighter.

Do it. I am using it whenever possible. What I like it (1) it works flawlessly, (2) it looks great, (3) you can adjust the flame without a screwdriver, and (4) it works from a flint. No piezoelectric thingie to wear out. I found the flints at lightersdirect.com for much less than at Amazon......

When I travel, I am sometimes just using shuttles and can't get to a Walmart, + I've seen people complain that some Walmarts didn't have Ronsons at a particular time.

Yes.. the website said "In Stock" so I ordered it.. Got email today saying out of stock and discontinued? :(

yep same email on my order, I guess all the amazon sellers at $39 bought up the $10 ones :(

http://www.prometheuskkp.com/Merchan...de=CASE-TRV-YL appears to be another option

And some on ebay... http://www.ebay.com/itm/COLIBRI-Tran...item3f3a61767c
