    I've been complaining to people for years that the butane canisters never work. Never once has anyone said you need to release pressure and sure enough it works!! Thank you for posting this. Imagine how many people feel really stupid after getting it to work after all these years LOL!!

    It does not need to be empty. Hold the torch vertically and, of course, upside-down. Press the torch valve. It won’t hurt anything if a little butane squirts out - that shows you have released all the air.

    Not exactly true. You can and will break your refill valve. Air pressure forces everything out breaking it permanently. Not all but cheap ones will. And yes why would you save a second to get less butane in?

    Only top off if absolutely necessary and purge some air slowly then add more butane if you know your torch can handle it. Otherwise never do this because it will break it! If anything keep a cartridge with you so you can fill 18ml when its out. They are $2 unless you fill it yourself.

    The problem is that the refill butane is not properly seating on the lighter valve. Look for refill butane that has a half-dozen plastic tips molded into the butane cylinder’s plastic cap. Select one that fits snugly over the lighter valve. Press the cylinder onto the plastic tip firmly and hold it there until a spurt of butane shows the lighter is filled.

    What’s not shown here is that some butane canisters are sold with a metal stem that will not seal to the torch fill valve. These canisters have a half-dozen tips molded into the cap so the user can select the tip that fits the torch valve. Also, a very small straight-blade screwdriver is easier to use to depress the torch fill valve to release any residual pressure before refilling. Just make sure the blade doesn’t block the valve orifice.

    Yeah, why yawl saying don't use that brand??!!? Should know that's the can I just used because my roommate bought it. Probably the cheapest for sure since he picked it up 😅 Seriously, I noticed it seemed to get cold very fast. Is there something about the fuel itself that's more dangerous if accidentally inhaled?

    Cause it's super cheap fuel which will clog your lighters. You need to get triple filtered butane or higher even. You can almost always get a lighter to work with good butane like vector.

    Why not just wait until it's actually empty?Seems like a waste to release what's in there already just to refill.

    Sometimes it’s to little gas or just built up pressure

    Because the flame dwindles hence needs refiling

    Seriously? Are you happy with a drink half filled? Take out the wasted ice (air)! And fill the whole thing. Otherwise what is the purpose?

    Well go on and make it then. Since you're so clever and can do so much better. Also, differentiating between seconds and minutes is theoretically very simple too, yet you seem to have had difficulty.
