Title: Cigar Traveller / IRODA...
Post by: Ted on 06/09/2016 09:41 AM

Bought a couple of vendor branded Cigar Traveller lighters recently. After some adjustments with the gas release valve, these things are the most reliable lighter I own. So far I've used a third of a fill and have lit / touched up about 20 cigars (and a lot of testing). These things light the first time, almost every time. Maybe one 1 in 20 attempts requires a second try. Haven't had the chance to try in cold weather (sub 50º) where 90% of my current torches fail, but it is already more reliable than all my other lighters above 60º. 

Main reason I purchased was to have a torch on travel. So far, no issue. Can't recommend these highly enough. The ones I got are rebranded Cigar Traveller, but they appear to be the exact same as the red IRODA models available on eBay and Amazon. Can't recommend these highly enough. Will probably buy a couple more on my next purchase and stock up on these!

Interesting legal air travel option.  May have to grab one.  I take my Xikar Enigma on flights and haven't had an issue, but it's not legal to fly.  I really dislike the single-flame pinpoint torches like this, but it's better than nothing.

It's actually got a surprisingly high output. For a single. Lights better than my Bugatti 2002 which I really like when the temp is above 70ยบ. It's horrible when cooler out though.

Three, maybe four things....

We at Cigar Traveller know what a cigar aficionado needs. It boils down to three, maybe four things. A good cigar, some good company, a drink and most importantly, jet flame.

 Sadly, on our travels the difficulties that we smokers encounter at airports and the like can make the flame a little tricky.

 Not any more. Whilst we cannot guarantee every airport in the world having the same policy, we have a standard lighter to jet flame convertor that can be separated for travelling and joined together in perfect harmony to enable you to light your cigar when you get to where you need to be.

 Leave the expensive lighter at home and relax in the knowledge that cigar traveller will take care of your lighter needs at the other end. We even provide extra refills to avoid taking any butane on your travels.

Welcome to the site.  Sounds like a great product.  Why don't you hook us all up with a special CG deal and you might sell a bunch of these!

Couldn't agree more! I'm sure 50-100 of them will sell within a day.

I'm thinking that is just a copy paste from cigar travelers sight. So far all that persons posts are copy pasted.

I know.  It was pretty obvious.  Since this was the one thread where the cut and paste was in the first person (as if "Lena" was making the claims), I thought it would be a good way to call "Lena" out to put up or shut up.  

Makes you wonder what goes through peoples heads when they join a forum and just cut and paste plagiarized responses.  Maybe "Lena" will come back and enlighten all of us.  :shootme:

Usually these are spammer accounts, some automated system tends to them then once they have some rep points or just time on the site, they start spamming.

I’m in Las Vegas right now and this is the first trip with my Cigar Traveller. I frickin love it! I stored the lighter pieces in my carry-on and kept the “lighter” fuel charge on me when going through security; it looks like a regular cheapie lighter. No problems! This has earned a permanent place for in my travel herf kit. Much thanks to those UK guys who created this gem. Oh, and their wooden collapsible cigar stand is equally as useful.
