What danger does it pose? Your lighter? Probably none. But are you willing to assign the same level of confidence to everybody else's lighter as well?

Yes, if the TSA agent is willing to flick them all first. If it lights, then it is prohibited. If it doesn't, then it's a harmless piece of metal.

How do you tell the difference then between an empty lighter and a full lighter whose valve is stuck?
