Your custom shells can live on as long as you have a new Ronson to transfer them onto- start stocking up

    BTW- This might be my new favorite design - way to keep reinventing an already great idea!
    Well swapping it out means choosing which one of my lighters I don't want! I do like this new design the best, so I probably will end up swapping it out. I've never removed the flame adjustment limiter, but I'll have to try that!

    Or go to Walgreens and buy another one for $5. Just wait until I send you your new one. You will forget all about that Gorilla Warfare lighter

    Yeah, once the lighter is out of the case, remove the little gold thing around the flame adjustment on the bottom side. Use a small flathead screwdriver and just pry it up and pop it off. Now be careful how big you make that thing-and where you point it!

    But seriously, it's nice because as you get low on fuel, you can keep adjusting and really empty that tank before refilling it

    I just did this earlier after you said to do it and I can't believe I never noticed that before! I pulled it out and as long as I have it turned up the lighter actually works! When I turn it back down it just sputters and fails, but as long as it's cranked up a little bit it seems to have some life left. You're the man Sean!
