*** DO NOT BUY THIS BRUNTON LIGHTER ***:
This is poorest quality Butane lighter I have ever purchased -- one star is overly generous. I am very thankful that I tried this one out in the field before deploying overseas. I have returned the original and the replacement BRUNTON sent to me directly. This lighter cannot be relied upon to work within 3-4 attempts and does not function at all with any kind of moisture.

Eventually when I was able to fully refuel the darn thing and light it, my friend was able to blow the flame with his breath from 2 feet away. So, which part of this thing is "storm proof" exactly? If you are thinking about getting this piece to use for camping and/or survival, look... more info
