El Presidente Posted February 11, 2016 Posted February 11, 2016 A good mate of mine Justin negotiated the global rights for IRODA Torches as a cigar lighter. Now Bear from Canada put me onto IRODA lighters about 4 years ago. I had lost faith in almost all lighters as only a retailer can. It really doesn't matter if a lighter is $500 or $5 they will fail.....and I have seen many a $15 lighter last longer than a $300 lighter. There are a few exceptions (Dupont comes to mind) but in general it is a nightmare for retailers and owners. So Bear put me onto this IRODA and I have used and sold them almost exclusively for the past 4 years. I have never had one come back. I have had one fail personally. They are near bulletproof. Add the fact that they are travel safe. Take out the refill cartridge and put it separate to the case and you can jump on and off planes without a problem. Refilling the cartridges is easy. Hell I always have 2-3 cartridges when I travel. A full cartridge will do 30 cigars or thereabouts. So Bear introduced me to IRODA. I fell in love and showed Justin last July in London. Justin fell in love with them and approached IRODA. Justin launches "Cigar Traveller" Lighters and the first cab off the rank is FOH monikered lighters. Will have them up next week. For those who haven't tried this lighter in IRODA form, don't go another month without one. Thank me later Thank you again to Bear and Justin! 4
ChanceSchmerr Posted February 12, 2016 Posted February 12, 2016 I like it! Keep meaning to get one ....now I have a real good reason!
madandana Posted February 12, 2016 Posted February 12, 2016 Nice. Got my first last week. Will be ordering once you get them up.
riazp Posted February 12, 2016 Posted February 12, 2016 I bought one for my trip to Havana. Got into the country just fine with it. Cartridge in my pocket, lighter in my check in luggage. However cuba seems to make their own rules and deceided i could not board the plane with the cartridge on me...didnt make a big deal about it given the refills are about 3$. I'm glad the boys here turned me on to it as well
OZCUBAN Posted February 12, 2016 Posted February 12, 2016 Great stuff Rob will be the perfect compliment to the F.O.H Ashtray Cheers
LLC Posted February 12, 2016 Posted February 12, 2016 I travel a lot and have been using these for a few years. Never failed me.
CaptainQuintero Posted February 12, 2016 Posted February 12, 2016 Brilliant! Definitely interested in picking one up, I can't resist the foh design. Is there any chance of negotiating with ken's agent to release the rights to the Kenny g version of the smoking monkey?
TheFullMontecristo Posted February 12, 2016 Posted February 12, 2016 I swear by this lighter. I have several expensive single and triple flame lighters collecting dust because they are just not durable or dependable any more. Iroda ftw.
Fuzz Posted February 12, 2016 Posted February 12, 2016 It works off a bic? Doesn't work with BIC lighters (oval shaped), only rectangular ones. One thing I have found with Iroda lighters, if they are not lighting, check the spark. There is a little metal wire above the gas ports. If the wire is protruding too far forward, the spark goes to the shroud instead of the gas ports. Just give the wire a little push (1-2mm) closer to the ports.
Scroats Posted February 12, 2016 Posted February 12, 2016 I used to have one of these, bought it in a truck stop in Iowa almost 20 years ago. My first torch. The name doesn't sound familiar but the shape sure does.
joejack11 Posted February 12, 2016 Posted February 12, 2016 LOL i like the hidden compartment! i want one!
jsd Posted February 12, 2016 Posted February 12, 2016 Never heard of those but it looks good. I'll but one.
Boosted Posted February 12, 2016 Posted February 12, 2016 I've already got one, but I am definitely buying an FOH branded one.
riazp Posted February 12, 2016 Posted February 12, 2016 defenitly adding an FOH one even if I have a iroda already.
Puros Y Vino Posted February 12, 2016 Posted February 12, 2016 Best lighters ever. Never buying a fancy lighter ever again. 1
zeedubbya Posted February 12, 2016 Posted February 12, 2016 Yes I am very interested in this and ashtray!
JohnS Posted February 12, 2016 Posted February 12, 2016 I've already got one, but I am definitely buying an FOH branded one. definitely adding an FOH one even if I have a iroda already. Best lighters ever. Never buying a fancy lighter ever again. You can't beat those ever-reliable, precise burns! I'm in too!
Lotusguy Posted February 12, 2016 Posted February 12, 2016 LOL i like the hidden compartment! i want one! It's not a hidden compartment - that's the fuel for the lighter.
Reevzy Posted February 15, 2016 Posted February 15, 2016 Don't know if I'm missing a link somewhere but where can I get one of these lighters if they're available? I do have one that I got from the Snap On truck at work (although I had to get a bank loan for it) but the FOH logo does look cool
jazzboypro Posted February 15, 2016 Posted February 15, 2016 I've been using one exclusively for about a year and i am pleased with it.
