    Default Defective Butane Lighters

    Saw this on the news, as usual China is foisting some crap on us and we just let them. Perfect opportunity for a company to start up a factory here in the U.S.

    I don't smoke, so the only thing I use a lighter for is starting bonfires and candles. I'll start looking for a Zippo and matches. Where the hell is our consumer protection agencies and NFPA, etc. in all of this?
