Larrylah Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 I have two Siglo cigar lighters which have not been used for a long time, and need a servicing. The problem is that, even when the flame adjuster is turned to it's lowest level, the flame is too high. I would be grateful if someone could recommend an outlet in Bangkok or Phuket that can do a quality service to both lighters. Because it could be the outlet valve that was blocked by dust / cigar ash, I blew the outlet valve clean by a small jet of compressed air and tried again. I also bled the lighter, and clicked a few times on the lighter when it was empty, then filled up gas again, then turned the flame adjuster to lowest setting. The flame was still too high. Yellow lighter: with the flame adjuster set to the lowest, the flame is still too high. There are 3 outlet valves, two are lighting fully, but the third is only a very small flame. I have just re-filled it, and now the flames are much to high for the lighter to be used. Retro lighter: with the flame adjuster set to the lowest, the gas shoots out from the outlet valve in a long jet about 15 cm. Because of this, it is impossible to use. I would be grateful for any further advice you could offer, especially about getting the lighters serviced in Phuket or Bangkok. Many thanks!

bbko Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 I doubt there's a lighter only repair shop, best to ask the cigar shops if they can help. Also maybe try a different brand of butane. Good Luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
