You, sir or madam, win the Kewpie doll. I had a cheapo Bic in my pocket plus two in my shaving kit - worked just fine to light my Arturo Fuentes on my trip. And never once did the airport security goons even raise an eyebrow.

For what it's worth, I've had Calibris and Prometheus lighters turn into worthless hunks of crap after 6 months. I now by the cheapo knockoffs at JRs for six bucks and they work forever.

I've had the same crummy experience with fancy lighters. Now I light my Fuente Don Carlos Robustos with wooden matches. Easily and cheaply replaced if confiscated by TSA storm troopers.
