Okay, assuming for the moment that everyone's not too preoccupied with my "EDC thread"...
Is the "special" triple-refined Colibri butane refill really worth it?
Or is that just marketing hype, and a can of Ronson butane from K-mart would do fine?
I've got a Colibri Quantum weatherproof lighter that's run out and needs a refill. I've seen posts from people who feel other butanes will gunk up the works, ruin the catalyst wire, or clog the jet etc. But I'm also just wondering if their lighters failed for other reasons, and blamed it on the brand of butane.
I don't mind paying for "the label" but only if I can be sure there's really a benefit.
