This tutorial shows how to refill a disposable NOT BIC lighter without damage it. Using a paperclip and a refill can. BUT when the lighter flint run out, the lighter will be useless (when this hapens, you can explode the lighter like in my other video)

Haha the lighter I was looking to refill was the same color and model as yours and same with my gas bottle. It is like this was made for me. I used a mini screwdriver because I had no paperclip.
I wanted to write this comment
can i save this video..
Same here. I did everything he did except I didnt need the paper clip. I just turned the wheel a bit and used the original thumb press pad thing to hold the valve open. Worked great and now all my lighters are filled again.

No paperclip or mini screwdriver..i share you all one object and think.use injection needle size fix in hole.not understand request me to show.
Clever way to keep these disposables out of the landfills! Thank you for recycling and for a great video! Just a suggestion, count how many turns before the refill, then turn back same number before testing the flame height............tweak if necessary.
I love potheads. We're so creative.
I love us too

Get a little buzz --- you point and I build 👨🔧 👩🏭 👨🎨 🤦♀️
Facts. I made a scale out of 2 straws and calibrated it using pennies. 😁
That light level lever crank trick is very handy on these cheaper lighters often set too high. Also if you use that trick on lighters with fluid that wont light, they will light again after a few cranks in a better direction(left or right).
dude you are a fucking genius. PROPS HOMIE! Thanks for teaching me how to refill my lighters. I had this big ass can of butane and this is so awesome! NO MORE SMOKING BOWLS BY THE STOVE WITH A TOOTHPICK
LOL
Thanks for instruction. If I knew it in past I could save a lot of lighters. Better late than never. Thanks again.
This helped a lot, I was developing my webshooters and didn't know how to get the gas propellant into the casing. Thanks a bunch
you watch JLaserVideo?
Best vid i seen how to refill a cheap lighter worked like a charm
Great fix! I just wanna elaborate that you don’t use the lighters to smoke cigarettes. Keep the lighter and toss the cigs. Haha. A PSA from an ole geezer.
Weed only

This was the best refill video. Simple and easy. These Ultimas are the shit too.
Really helpful bro, I'm 45 years old and I remember in my home town in Portugal where I originally come from I remember when I was a young boy every year we had a fun fair it's a traditional one it goes allover the country for a few months and I remember there was these men I used to see he was refilling disposable Bic lighters back then I remember the Bic lighters with a metal flame adjustable wheel and everyone was amazed by it but he never let anyone see how he did it he was telling people to come back after 30 minutes and for many years I was wondering how did he do it thank you bro this video it's kind of a childhood dream came true sort of speak.👍👍
You can take off the top of the lighter (black plastic, spark wheel etc) and then simply screw off the flame height adjuster and fill butane directly into it. Just gotta be fast screwing on the adjuster again before the gas vaporizes. The main reason you can't get that much butane into the lighter when you got the adjuster on, is because you build up pressure in the lighter. When gas goes in, air must come out. And by filling it directly into the flame adjuster hole (after removing the adjustment screw), it allows for the air to flow out of the lighter.
Why not just press the lever to open the valve, then refill?
Thanks for the tutorial. I found a drawing pin was a bit easier to use as a lever as the paperclip would keep bending
True its sometimes hard specially with regular size clips
Thanks for sharing this man, you’re a genius. I’ve been trying to find a way to do this for some time now but couldn’t really figure it out. Cheers
Does this work for a classic Bic, I haven't seen any of these videos until just now but it just seems that it should work since the fuel comes out that way it should be able to go back in that way I'm beginning to think there's some kind of a backflow preventer or something
perfect also flints are easy to replace too. great job! only prob is now i will be picking up abandoned lighters.
Maybe after collecting those old lighters, and now armed with the knowledge of refilling and replacing flints, you could consider ‘overhauling’ those lighters, do a little cleaning, then sell them back like new. Kinda like recycling.
Not anymore your not 😭 #2020
Did you buy that blue tip on your refill can or did it already come with it?
I knew that was the only way possible because I didn't have any refillable. Blessed thanks
dear Adrian Lopez, Greetings from New Mexico! Thanks for this video on refilliing the disposable lighter. Very professionally done. Please make more videos.
pierre
+Adrian Lopez if you press down on the button when inserting gas will it still work
Really helpful, thanks!
Awesome video! But can I ask why you need the paper clip? The button does that anyway?
My question as well!
This video sure help me tonight, thank you
Is it a must to do the anti clockwise turning part? Can we jump straight to the paper clip part?
This is some Cuban-level ingenuity.
U saved my live bro! Subscribed!
Thank you for the excellent step by step tutorial ! My only problem is lighter flints are rather hard to find in my area in my country (The Philippines) due to the abundance of electronically ignited lighters available on sale all over town. So the sellers I was told, have “phased them out.” Any ideas to where I could readily find them? Another question is, will your procedure work with electronic disposable lighters?
You might find Flints on online stores, for electric lighters they usually have a valve in the bottom so refilling is just as easy as following instructions on the can
Thank you, Easy and works well
thanks i found an even better version of this method using the paper clip
Will it work on "crocs" mini torch lighters?
Thank you!
Very helpful.
Nice. Filled up my long lighter this way.
Can I use lighter fulid (like to one you use for grilling)
I wonder if this would work with the original old Bic lighters from the 70s with the metal flame adjuster wheel.
does this work with djeep lighters too?
This is pretty cool, but how would you replace the ferocerium? As long as that can't be replaced effectively the lighter is still gonna break, likely before you run out of the refilled gas.
much needed in cuarentena times! gracias bruh!
I like how the creator liked a comment from 5 days ago and one under it is not liked and is from 5 years ago 😂
Doesn't seem to work for mine as far as i can see the difference is the color, tried the paper clip with covering over as well nothing, i've got some more laying around cause i wanna see if it can be done, but on the different side i just made a vape pen into a solder gun
how do you take the metal cover off. mine won't budge?
Thank you 🙏🏼 I got a macho Randy Savage lighter but you can’t refill but now I can after this video 🤘🏼🤘🏼
Can you do this with the other disposable lighthers as well?
Thank you. It's very usefull when emergency
What is the yellow canister called? I want to buy the same one just in case
The Paper Airplane King So it is NOT butane then?
i think i need those red adaptors you pulled off the top of your can to fill mine the right way
I remember the good ole 80's when I used to do this and other dangerous things in single digit age lol. I'm going to get a pen and use the ink tube to use these cheap 3 for a dollar lighters to refill my refillable lighters. *Butane quality is unreliable and worst of all, those same "reputable" brands are also expensive.*
Thanks mate it worked 1st time for me. 👍👍👍👍👍
I have the exact same yellow bic lighter as u. The flame adjuster u r using in this i have the same excep its green
Can u use ronsonol
nice video man you are the real deal no bullshit straigh to the point
Would butane work?
He has exactly the same lighter spot on lol
Sameee
Which fuel is used to rifill
Best way I've seen so far. The others all make a hole on the bottom and use a push pin as a seal. Not worth bothering. I did see one where the guy added a valve but where would you buy one? The lighter you are refilling looks like the cheap ones I have and they hurt your fingers. You have to push so hard on the wheel to light it. Bics might be worth refilling. I don't buy these cheap lighters. They came with the cigs.
How much gas averagely should be wasted in the process?
Could you do this with a djeep lighter please I need hep refilling mine
If you find sent me that video link below in comment
@@m.i-ansari You can you have to take everything apart and refill from the flame valve. Theres a video. Its in another country. Then he puts it back together.
You dont really need a paperclip, it worked for me just by pressing the valve
yayy
I thought i shouldnt make difference.. Now i can refill my colt
Hey I appreciate you bro
Actually work I filled it up thanks bro
Hi, I am looking for a tutorial to make a adapter to fill a lighter with a gas piercing cartridge. Would you be upo for it?
hehe, noooo. I mean a camping butan gas cartridge :-)
+Adrian Lopez (Innovations) like this
+Adrian Lopez (Innovations) a can of butane does not penetrate the bottom of a disposable lighter
thanks man
Great hack, Cheers!
Any reason you use the paper clip instead of just pressing the button?
It's harder to hold the button down because of how long you need to do it.
It's because the black plastic part which lifts the nozzle is fragile, so when you press on the nozzle it bends decreasing gas flow.
This managed to get me enough to get it to light my last cigarette.
Hi, can i refill a cricket lighter, i cant find anything about them. Cause i like its small size and i want to use them :)
+Adrian Lopez (Innovations) Thanks, you really helpd me out
so counter clockwise is to loosen or to tighten the valve??
***** thanks because i will refill a 1$ pocket torch
***** thx.
The next would be how to insert aluminum foil to the lighter nozzle. Haha
Won’t the flint run out at some point?
Thanks
Is this butane?
good bhai...👍👍👍
What about that "Flint"? How do you replace it? This would be very helpful, because your Butane is ok.
But not hardly any flint left. Thanks! Courious minds want to know!
one more tthing though, how can I make sure it don't blow up??!
There are like 10 for a pound all over the UK or just buy a clipper as it is easier to replace the flint.
Clippers have the smallest flame possible. Only adjustable ones are good.
Wow thanks 😂 I finally did it
You actually turned it counter clockwise.
I don’t have butane gas ?
Wouldn't it be the same thing if you just pushed the button instead of using the paper clip?
The button is flexible and when I press the can down the valve closes
It works 😂 Im literally filling up all my empty lighters ahaha
Can you help me when I try to fill it does not play fill it and it fills up from the other side of the lighter
@@krl343 it's easy bro just put something thick like a metal bar threw the middle, and it will stay in place and fill it up slowly bro
@@goonieworld_i trayed do that but it dosent work like watch this videio to see what i mean czcams.com/video/ykrPL8bA3LU/video.html
thx
Can i use any butane (normal butane)??
+Meal Worm Gamer You can also use LPG canister for gas camping stove(7/16ths UNEF threaded canisters type). But you will need an adapter made for filling lighther with that kind of cartridge. It is not pure butane but a mix of butane/isobutane/propane.
Brilliant
works, amazing! thank you :)
Price of LPG can ???
Can you use gasoline?
Why would you use the paper clip as a lever instead of just using the gas button..?
My thought exactly
@@cloz650 It's because the black plastic part which lifts the nozzle is fragile, so when you press on the nozzle it bends decreasing gas flow.
Can we fill up from bottom where valve is there?
if your lighter has valve yes, you should use that. no point using my trick if ur lighter is refillable
@@ThePaperAirplaneKing Thanks for clarification.
Wicked
I did everything but lighter doesn't work yet, What Can I do?
we have the exact name, first and last and from one Adrian Lopez to the other thank you lol
Does butane gas works on lighters?
THE PAPER AIRPLANE KING your name sound like one of saitama enemies.so not all portable gas works.
THE PAPER AIRPLANE KING he he he classic saitama emote ;) anyway tnx ima buy the lighter one
Thanks bro shit works!!!
Nice
What was the point of the paperclip? That's what the buttons for
Interesting, wonder why you can't press the button to open the valve. I guess I'll find out when I do this.
So what happened
workssss 💯🤘
Sat here smoking a joint, my dogshit lighters dying but I got a can of clipper gas, searched this video and viola, sorted, didn't have to move
You have your clockwise and counter clockwise mixed up, the first time was clockwise and the second time was counter clockwise
are you sure about that
Im so high i was trying to refill it and noticed that i just had the flame on low💀💀💀
Can you help me when I try to fill it does not play fill it and it fills up from the other side of the lighter
How do you change the Flint?
He literally has the same lighter as me
And thousands of other people
Same
How do I fill it without refill can?
+Adrian Lopez (Innovations) your trolling right? :-)
I think adrial knows that. The question probably is similar to mine.
Yeah I thought so ;-;
