Title: Xikar lighters
Post by: DonM on 10/01/2017 02:09 PM
Any one having problems recently?  I sent an Escalade in (discontinued) and they sent me an Ultra Mag along with another Ultra Mag . They were both leaking at the fill valve of tank.  A month later, one of them has intermittent spark.  Cheap parts maybe or quality control?  Just curious

I was too. I blew out the burner area with compressed air and that resolved the issue.

Had intermittent issues. Had to send a few back. Always seemed to come back working

I lost my Xicar about a month ago.  Do you think if I cry hard enough, they'll send me a new one?........uh no
