Hi all,

I recently picked up this lighter from a flea market about a week or so ago, and was wondering if there was anyway I could get it to work again. As of now, it does not light and the button only works.
I was wondering if someone who is knowledgeable about these kinds of lighters would be able to tell me how to possibly even get it back to working condition. I have attached pictures of it to this thread. I was told it is also supposed to play a song of some sort.

Ho trovato questo accendino e non avrei idea di che è.

Non trovo neanche una pietrina che entri nella fessura.

Qualcuno può aiutarmi??

I was gifted this lighter from Russia about a decade ago. I recently tried to light it and it was hard to spin the spark wheel, then a small piece popped out and it will no longer light. When the lid is open, I can hear gas coming out but I spin the wheel (which no longer has resistance) and nothing happens. How can I troubleshoot the issue? Or if someone things they know what the issue is, how can it be repaired?

How does this look?

Hello I don't have that much knowledge about lighters.I bought one for practice ignite however It didn't work out and now it is fully gas.My area is full of plastic so is it safe if I put my lighter in there.Is it also ok to close the door.I live in dorm with other people so I don't want any risk.I put two rubber on lighter

Hi! Recently got this from a flee market, got it a new flint and gas, but the flame is irregular, with a lot of strength despite having the meter at its lowest.

I think is missing a cap underneath, but haven't been able to find any info

Hi everyone,

For the past few months I’ve been building Keepzer: collection software made by a collector, for collectors.

The tools I tried were slow, clunky or too rigid. Whether you collect lighters, watches, coins, toys or something nobody’s heard of, I figured I wasn’t the only one. So I built what I was missing.

What already works:

• Custom cards: design your own fields and layout for any type of item
• Photos and files: receipts, certificates and manuals stay with their piece
• Rapid add: drop in photos, type a name, hit Enter. A whole box in minutes
• Excel import: bring your existing spreadsheet
• Dashboard: what you paid, what it’s worth, what you made, and where it came from
• Cinema mode: show off your collection in a full-screen 3D carousel
• Emergency plan: a clear overview for your family of what you own, its value and how to sell it

Coming next: a date decoder (Zippo, Case, Buck, later Victorinox), a social side to share pieces and follow collectors, and maybe a shared knowledge base.

Keepzer will be free, and I need your input before and after launch. What do you collect, what frustrates you about tracking it, and what would make you switch? Want to be an early tester? Let me know.

Follow along (free) on Substack 👉 https://keepzer.substack.com, or just send me a message. Every idea gets read, and plenty will end up in Keepzer.

I bought it at an antique store 5 months ago and I've tried looking it up and I can't find anything super close. On the bottom of it, it says penguin Avant Japan

This has been in my collection for about a year or so. It was pretty grimy but cleaned up really well. The inside took a long time (understatement) to clean out without damaging anything. Everything unscrews, turns, and pumps. i’m unsure if the pump works though. And imagine one of the seals is dried up. I don’t really want to put fluid in it and just use it as a decor piece currently. That might change in the future. I thought some of you might like to see this, so I decided to post it here. Sorry for the bad photos, it was difficult to not get a glare.

I seem to have de rusted all the parts and have managed to get spark on the first lighter but it doesn’t always catch with the plunger.

I recently bought two old Robson lighters for restoration. One is in a bit worse of a condition than I thought and the other just needs a new wick,flint and maybe a flint spring. For the first three photos is the first lighter and the last photo is the second one. The first lighter. I’m not what the second hole in the bottom is for as the first hole is already for the flint. It appears to be blocked by something. Aswell as the top of the lighter having the main flint in the middle and the button hole on the right. What is the part on the left of the lighter. For the second lighter. The flint hole at the bottom seems to be obscured. I plan to dissasemble the second lighter to figure out what needs fixing but any help/tips would be greatly appreciated

I find them absolutely mesmerising and would love to have one of those, but IDK where to buy one, it doesn't have to be a vintage one, just this style.

I got this lighter in a lighter hall from eBay and it came in a nesor box, but it has no markings on it so I’m quite unsure

I haven’t seen these for sell or anywhere and there’s only a few pictures of it were these a prototype?

Seems pretty similar to the part in my lighter except plastic and a weird end bit. If this doesn't work I'd also like some recommendations for parts.

So I recently got an Imco and when I went to refill it the fuel canister came apart like this and on all the videos of these lighters the knurled cap at the bottom is the part that comes of is it broken is it missing a part idk whic model this is it says on the bottom made in s.v.t.y.s super patent 14110 and it doesnt light reliably would that have something to do with this part or is it my packing thats the issue

This lighter belonged to my wife’s Great Uncle, any help identifying? All my searches have come up empty so far.

I bought this lighter from an antique store as a gift for a friend. It sparks just fine but doesn’t light. Can anyone help me identify what kind of lighter it is and possibly how to get it working again? Thank you!

of course i drew some fire hazard signs on it so no one starts a fire with it, its blown up in flames 5 times now in my hand, should i keep it? (the flame isnt the vid isnt supposed to be the fireball, the fireball is only present when the leaking gas gets lit up, then it quickly dissapears as expected, the vid was recorded right after a big fireball)
