Zippo 121503 Aluminum Fuel Canister

nice little canister for carrying your favorite fluid

Totally satisfied! A really good product that will last forever.

I've been a Zippo user for 30 years and I've seen these at the smoke shop for a few years but never bothered to ask what it was. Once a buddy of mine gave me a refill off his, I knew I had to have one. But by now, the smoke shop doesn't carry them anymore so I'm really happy that I found it on the Walmart Site. It holds 1oz of Zippo fuel which is the perfect amount to fully refuel your Zippo lighter once or to give your Zippo hand warmer a 6hr refuel. For me, I use my Zippo many times a day but I have poor refueling habits and frequently run dry. This leaves me aggravated that I can't smoke until I can refuel again. I've already refueled once since it arrived a week ago and I'm very happy with this purchase because it was everything it claimed to be and what I needed. CON - The wire ring to hold the canister to the clip and key ring is pretty weak. I could see it being pulled apart easily which could loose your keys and fuel canister if it gets snagged on something. From the package, that ring was misaligned and I was able to bend it into place with my fingers and very little effort. Also, that screwdriver disk and flint holder seem like novelty gimmicks since everyone I know only finger tightens that screw cap and keeps spare flints under their felt pad but it's still nice for Zippo to include them for a novice user. PRO - It's the perfect size to hold one full Zippo lighter refuel and still sits compact in any pocket or in my backpack. The fuel pours out at a nice pace so it gives the wading time to absorb as it flows. By the time you see it reaching the felt, you're full; in just seconds like filling from the can. The construction is solid and compact so I don't have to worry about my gear puncturing it like I do when I carry the can on camping trips. The O-rings around the main cap and pouring spout sit snug once they're screwed on so I have not had any leaking or fuel vapor smell coming off of it at all. I can absolutely recommend this to a friend and I intend on getting a second one to keep one to carry and one for my backpack. Five Stars!

This is a handy little portable canister to take with you if you use a Zippo lighter quite a bit. It's a lot more convenient to pack around than having to pack an entire refuel jar itself. Can easily go on a keychain, or stick it in the car whenever your lighter runs out. it's pretty high quality and made of stainless steel, and has a handy keychain feature if you would like to put it on your keychain. I keep it in my car in my glove box for if I were to need it in case of emergencies. If you are looking for a easier way to refuel your lighter, this is definitely a good option

Back before I retired I was an engineer in construction and did a lot of smoking. As you can see from the picture that come with this review you'll see some of my old Zippo lighters a couple are brass and one is just plain metal. The only time they ever let me down was when they would run out of fuel and that always seemed to happen when I was high up in a building somewhere and the last thing I wanted to do was go back down to the ground to hunt for lighter fluid. Man if I had this fuel canister it sure would have saved me a lot of trouble. This is a great idle my only problem is I stopped smoking 14 years ago but this is still a great gadget to have I can't think of the number of times I've said if I only had a little lighter fluid.
