Manufactured by the Zippo Manufacturing Company, a Zippo Lighter is a refillable, windproof metal lighter that should last as long as you at least.
Its wind-proofing comes from the windscreen within which the flame is sparked and due to the adequate fuel delivery. A familiar clicking is heard when the lid of a Zippo is opened and closed, caused by the spring-toggle lever which keeps the lid closed tightly when the lighter is not in use, starving the flame of oxygen and thus extinguishing it.
