Review on Clear Xikar Stratosphere II High Altitude Lighter: Single Jet Flame, Windproof, Ergonomic Design For Durability And Dependability by Jeff Swanson

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Not Ready For Prime Time

Been using Xikar lighters for over 20 years and this one was a major disappointment. Had to try up to ten times to get it to light and when it finally did the unit died after a couple of seconds and this was in an enclosed location; not outdoors. Really not up to the standards I've come to expect from Xikar.

Pros
  • Single jet flame windproof lighter
Cons
  • The lighter may not come with a fuel gauge, making it difficult to know when it needs to be refilled
