Looks like Finck's is carrying them, at a bit of a markup.

I found a couple of Ronson Jetlites at a Rite Aid in Stamford yesterday. $4.49 a piece. A rare bargain in CT.

RCS44 · 10-14-2011, 11:52 AM

I find them all the time at Wal Mart.

10-14-2011, 01:02 PM

I can usually find them at Wal Mart around here. If you can't find them anywhere, send me a PM and I'll get them for you.

Jasonw560 · 10-14-2011, 07:14 PM

Same here. I can get one for whomever wants one. Just PM me your info.

I have the Satin Dusk ones. I have 2 older ones that I got in bombs, different style though.

Ronsons are the BEST !!!

I just can't see myself paying tons of money on a lighter that does what a $5 Ronson does.

To bad they dont have in my area (or even anywhere here in CA. from what I've seen anymore) anymore.... I would like to buy a handful of them to throw in for trades.

I'm sure they don't meet one California standard or another. From what I ascertained, the laws about everything (including blowing your nose) are just convoluted and asinine. The firearm laws alone just make my head spin.

No, we have plenty down here in The OC.

Ronson Jet Lites are far from THE BEST. They are a good, inexpensive lighter that is available from many sources, including WalMart.

I have several Ronson's and have given many as gifts. But they have some serious drawbacks.

They have a very small fuel capacity.

The top only open 90degrees and the all metal top can often get overheated.

In cold weather, they must first be warmed in the hands(or kept in your pocket) before lighting.

At WalMart price of $2.99 they are not bad.

A better value is the Chinese Blazer knock off available from DealExtreme. http://www.dealextreme.com/p/compact...t-lighter-4179 I have heard that the new ones are not as good as the ones from a few years ago, but I have not ordered in a while. I am still using several that are now approaching four years old.

The Blazer PB-207 has a huge fuel capacity and is a sturdy lighter but lacks some aesthetic appeal to some.

Lighters are like cigars, use what you like and like what you use. If it lights your cigar, then be happy.

thebayratt · 10-18-2011, 10:39 PM

I just grabbed the last two they had on the shelf at Walmart for $2.98!!
They are on the checkout aisle by the tobacco on a hook.

I grabbed one for a hunting trip planned for tomorrow and one for a project idea i have pondering in my head.

Not another project Shawn..... My back still hurts from doing the cigar band clock I just had to copy you doing.

11-10-2011, 05:51 PM

So I was trying to find some while I was home on leave but I'm having no luck. I was wondering if I could get someone to possibly send me like 2 to an APO address, I will buy them if need be. Please send me a PM if someone would be so kind to do this.

I can check and see if they still have any at my local Walmart. Last time I saw them there, they were only like $2-3. I also have a Walgreens that carries them but they are around $5-6 there.

Eleven · 11-10-2011, 08:41 PM

I see them all the time at my local walmart for $2.98 as well. I will pick up a few tomorrow morning.

11-10-2011, 11:02 PM

That would be awesome.

never_enough · 11-11-2011, 09:54 PM

I'm going to go look for some this weekend. Hope I can find them.

11-12-2011, 09:47 AM

^^I recently switched to those chinese blazer knockoffs recently for the reasons you stated above. The fuel capacity on the jetlites is just too small, and I was constantly running out of fuel, which forced me to carry TWO lighters everywhere.

I bought the blazer knockoffs about 2 months ago and couldn't be happier. All my friends are even ordering them too, they are great!
