It would seem that such a simple thing - plasticlighter, and how makes life easier for a person. Since they appeared on the shelves of stores, the popularity of wooden matches began to fall sharply. And no wonder, they are inexpensive, fueled enough for a long time, plus they do not deteriorate at high humidity.
However, sometimes the fuel in the lighter comes to an end.If this is a simple bauble, bought for 10 rubles in the nearest kiosk, it can be thrown out and not bother with the question of how to fill the lighter. But if it's a collector's model or it's just expensive as a memory, you'll have to work a little. Before you fill the lighter, you need to determine which fuel it works on. There are only two options - either gas or gasoline.
Determine that the lighter needs refuelingquite simply: the transparent body of most models allows you to see how much gas is left. In addition, when the fuel is running out, you have to "empty" several times, every time it lights up worse, and the flame, even tuned to a maximum, becomes barely noticeable.
Before you fill the lighter, you need tobuy a special gas in the tank. Most often it is sold in kiosks, hardware stores or household chemistry departments. For those who are going to fill it for the first time, it is worth making sure that the kit includes several nozzles for holes of different diameters. On gas it is better not to save and take expensive and high-quality.
For safety, the procedure is bestconduct near an open window and away from any source of fire. A suitable nozzle is worn on the balloon pin. Out of the cigarette lighters, excess air is released by gently pressing the valve of the filling hole with a handle, a match, or any suitable object. Excess air must go out with a hiss. After the preparation is completed, you can proceed directly to the gas station. A balloon with a nozzle is inserted into the hole with the valve on the lighter and forcefully pressed. In the case where the force is not enough, you can put the can on the table and press down on it with a lighter. When everything is done correctly, the gas starts to flow into the internal tank. Seconds after 7 balloon sharply pull away and remove it until the next refueling. Depending on the volume, one gas cylinder can last for 25-30 operations.
Gasoline lighters such as Sarome or Zippo more ofteneverything can be found in secured people. Due to the high price they have become not only a device for smoking, but also a symbol of prestige and success.
With gasoline models in principle, too, everythingquite simply. Before you fill the lighter, you need to stock up on special fuel. In order to avoid excesses, it's better not to muddle and not to drain petrol from the car, but use a branded one. Of course, gasoline is gasoline, and the lighter in any case will work at least 72, at least 95. Another thing is that it will be mercilessly smoked, besides it will give cigarettes a special flavor. Refueling of lighters on gasoline is a simple matter - first you need to remove it from the decorative case, then from the corner hook the valve, raise it, insert the can and gently soak up the gasoline fleece. When the container is full, the valve is returned into place, and the lighter is installed in the reverse order in the housing. If desired, you can immediately replace the silicon. Before refueling the lighter, you need to make sure there are no sources of fire. And after refueling, before checking the working capacity, you need to remove gasoline, wash with soap and hands, as much as possible wipe the lighter and work place as much as possible (in order to exclude the possibility of fire accidentally falling drops). When everything is cleaned, you can check the result of your work.
