Review on Xikar 9660BK Stratosphere Lighter Black by Guled Hamilton

Love the lighter - HATE the case. I received a lighter a few months ago and the lid broke the first time I took it out of my pocket. I exchanged it at my local smoke shop, no problem. 1 week later I just flipped the lid over as usual and it broke. The lighter still works. I had to go to Colorado (7285ft from 0ft) and the lighter works fine BUT the rest of the body just fell apart and is currently being held together with duct tape. I'd like to stick with the Xikar because it's good at altitude, lights up almost every time (3rd click max), has a fuel check window, and stays on in strong winds. I really don't want to go through a broken case again, so I won't get another one unless the company exchanges it for a different model.
