Like many of you, I like having various means of fire starting at my disposal. The Peanut Lighter is one of those options. It's well made, easy to use and re-fill and is so small that it makes a great EDC companion. Thank you for watching and please leave me a comment in the section below!

That WILL fit in a staneley cup cook set!!!

Maratac Peanut Lighter. Completely empty when I tried firing it up after 1 year in a bag. True Utility TU264 Fire Stash Carabiner model. 3 Years + 1 Month. Fired it up and it lit! Amazing!

Those are awesome lighters. My peanut lighter will carry the fluid for several months at least without going empty. In fact I have never had it go empty. I just refill whenever I think about it every couple of months or so. I keep it in my shirt pocket just for emergencies only.

That fuel canister is great for someone (like me) who always thinks ‘long term” for their survival kits.

Great video. I haven't seen that zippo fuel canister, but well worth it if it holds fuel for a few years. I have one of those peanut lighters, not sure if it's the same one as yours, but it is VERY well made. I got it as a stocking stuffer for Christmas in 2007 I think, and I filled it up and played with it like we always do, and then put it away. I pulled it out later the next year and sure enough it fired right up. I started testing it every Christmas and 4th of July and and left it sealed the rest of the year and each time it fired right up and never lost any fuel, and I did this up until Sept 2013 when I moved south and now I haven't checked it as it's packed away some where. I should dig it out and see if it still will light after one filling on Christmas day 13 years ago. Keep up the great work.

Finally someone did a video on the peanut lighter! If the lighter runs dry you can pull the cotton out an ignite it with the spark wheel. Extra flint in the bottom also. : )

That’s a great combo idea! Thanks again for sharing your awesome tips and tricks with us !

Thanks Mister Bender. Enjoyed it. I've got an old, military, brass lighter I keep around. Similar but different build. Thanks for the share. I'd not seen a peanut lighter before this.

Had one on my keychain for years. Still carry it edc.

Peanut lighters is cool. I have one on my keychain, very convinient. Needs refill one or two times in year. Good video!

I have a few of the tiny version of those lighters. They are very reliable, love the fuel container, never seen that one before, would be very handy to have for sure!

I wouldnt mind having that lil set. Always wanted a peanut lighter

The Zippo Fuel Canister would be a handy item to carry some denatured alcohol in for use in any of the warming trays of camping stoves , like the whisper light stoves. I know they say to use white gas but alcohol does not soot up the units like white gas does , when used as a warming agent. As far as the lighter , lighters eventually run out of fuel ( use or evaporation ) , flints or will not work when wet. A good Fero Rod works every time. For a really stubborn wood use some alcohol ( Zippo fuel canister ) and then sparks from the rod to get it burning. Didn't know about the Zippo Fuel Canisters but one will be a part of my gear.

Cool. I have peanut lighters but I didn't know about the zippo fuel tank

Nice. I didn’t know about the zippo fuel canister... gonna order one now. I’ve been putting a peanut lighter in my fire kits for many years. I carried one in my pocket for a year without using it, just to see if the fuel would evaporate. It lit just fine. ...an excellent piece of kit. 👍🏻👍🏻

What a great little handy thing to have. I had never heard of the storage container either. Will have to check out the link. thanks

Good video! I've had the peanut lighter and fuel tank in my fire kit for over a year and it's a great piece of kit. The tank is essentially useful if you also carry a regular Zippo lighter. Thanks, James, ATB, Sam Adler

The Clipper lighter is refillable unit that has a removable sparkling wheel so you can replace the flints. The nice thing about the Zippo or peanut lighter are they stay lit till you blow them out.

Very cool. I have a small "everstrike match" in my cook kit but definitely going to have to look into one of those zippo bottles.

what a great set up / small yet mighty !! Blessings !!

My main fire kit has a Numyth Tohil lighter... it’s like a peanut lighter on steroids. I got it at the BLADE Show in Atlanta in 2015, and it’s still working fine

Great video. Just placed my order

Cool lighter brother. I like it. God Bless

Super cool

I’ve got a few peanut lights but not the zippo storage container. I. Going to have to check those out. Thanks

Nice little system. Thanks and take care.

Very cool , I never saw one of those reservoirs before 👍

Very cool video

Good information and demo, thanks for the video.

Great vid thx

I really liked the vidio

I got some maratac splitpea, peanut and xl peanut size. I love them but for a survival kit I see more confortable one or more bic lighter .

check out liquid match lighters. Big in the 1970s

Most peanut lighters I've seen come with a brass fuel canister as well. Why use the Zippo fuel canister?(I will admit the Zippo canister dispensing nozzle is better than a wide open top, as the included fuel canisters have)

Seems like a great little piece to have on you when out in the wilderness. Do you prefer the peanut over other strikers like flint and magnesium? How long would a peanut lighter last with a refill if you were stranded somewhere for along time? Just curious. Thanks for sharing the valuable information.

Good info to know.

Love my peanut lighter but I've never seen that zippo fuel storage container

👍

Another great video!!!! Just fyi the same company which makess the lighter for Maratac makes three models of the same lighter. I bought 5 of their model 2 for $0.01 (yes... One penny each) with $4.95 s&h. I earlier had bought 5 Nanostriker XL (the same as Exotac but without thelr trademark) for $0.85 each again with $4.95 s&h. The Nanostrikers are the same and use the same refill kit as the one selling for$29.95.....I thought i got two pretty good deals. Check ot a web site called wish.com.

Honestly, it's ablity to use Zippo flints is irrelevant. Since Zippo now owns Ronson, and nearly every other lighter used the exact same flints(bic's are a source of extra long flints.) Lighter flints(actually small ferrocerium rods) have long since been a standardized diameter.

Got tired of refilling my Zippo every 3 weeks so I got a peanut lighter and upgraded to a thicker O ring. I get about 3 months before it evaporates but honestly I don't use it all. Nice addition to my mini fero rod and ranger band on my key chain. Tried the metal match but found the wick burns off in no time. You mention it takes multiple fuels or did you mean refillable? Great vid!

did you spill peanut oil.?...does it light up like it's zippo liquid?

Peanut lighter? Never heard of such wizardry. Who are you and why are you wise in the ways of survival? "I am James, King of the Britons and I seek the Holy Grail. Please join me and my brave knights on my quest."

Hi James. Why peanut? I love the fuel container. Stay safe ATB Nigel

After 2 years, what's your current opinion of the peanut lighter?

Are there any other lighter like this with the flint for a keychains other than the ones with the rod?

You mentioned that it was muti fuel, what types of fuels can you burn in this?

Will those fit in an Altoids tin?

Too bad the Maratac peanut lighter costs more than $50... Pass
