A quick question on these ace little lighters - One of mine needs some replacement sealing o rings to seal the bottom valve, has anyone had any luck at all sourcing spares for these? Seems nobody can help who I have contacted 🙁

A tenuous lead
A couple of years ago there was a guy named Ben who seemed to know something about them, at this address: lighters2001@hotmail.com
Let us know if you learning anything. The Rams lighters are beautiful but not as robust as Zippos, alas.
