I've started a tumblr micro-blog for my quick and dirty photos and posts. I'll still blog over here at Blogger in the future for more wordy and formatted posts.

Zippo MPL utility lighter

CRW_3281 CRW_3284 CRW_3287

Nicely built; mostly plastic and some metal but strong. Except mine refused to light after a year of use recently, but there is a five year warranty on them I have to act on.

The gas flow adjuster knob can be shifted out and tweaked well way or down to find a nice range you’d like it to perform. From a 5mm flame to mini flamethrower (but lacking the efficient butane-air mixture for a proper jet flame).

29APR09- My MPL did have a hiccup in its life, inside the ‘noozle’ parts shifted around and the gas refused to ignite. With the help of a tweezer, I seemly bent the internal noozle into the right spot to catch the spark.
