Owners of refillable lighters know that having a can of butane fuel available is a must even if a lighter lasts a very long time on a single refill. Without extra butane, cigar and pipe smokers may have to use a less disirable lighting device when their usual butane lighter runs out of fuel.
For most smokers, butane lighters are the preferred source of fire for lighting tobacco as these lighters leave no unusual flavor or odors on the tobacco. This is why it is of the utmost importance to always have extra fuel on hand in order to ensure the most enjoyable smoking experience.
So, what is the proper way to store butane for your refillable lighter? Storing butane fuel simply requires a few precautions and common sense. You'll find that there is a wide variety of brands and canister sizes of butane and, by law, these containers have to include instructions regarding storing and using the fuel on the canister label. Butane fuel comes in a container that is pressurized. As long as you follow the instructions on the label, you can ensure that you do not have accidents and that you keep the fuel safely on hand.
Storage is the first step to proper butane safety. Make sure to keep it out of the reach of kids when storing butane in the home. Almost all canisters are able to withstand high temperatures. So even if you live in climate conditions that are considerably warmer, your butane will still store well. Quite simply, you should utilize the same methods of storing your butane that you use for storing your lighter. For example, don't put the butane canister in direct sunlight. This may cause the temperature of the canister to exceed safe levels. Instead, store your fuel in a dry, cool place, out of direct sun, and far from any other possible sources of extreme heat.
Do not store your butane canister in your car or truck. The temperature inside of a vehicle in warm, summer months can reach extremely high levels. Keeping your butane at home is always the best option as it is safe from extreme temperatures and will ensure that your butane supply is safe. Additionally, also make sure that the tip of the butane container is not damaged or clogged. If the tip is damaged or is clogged through use, remove the clog or throw away the container and buy a new one. Just by following these simple steps and tips, your butane supply will remain safe and will ensure that you always have the fuel on hand that you need.
