Does this come with butane in it? I could not get it to produce heat or flame as it arrived, and it was not packaged with any butane with which to fill it. It wouldn't surprise me if it didn't; butane being a flammable liquid and all.

I've purchased 2 of these and don't really recall the butane situation. In any case you will need a refill cylinder since they won't heat up to maximum temperature unless you keep them pretty filled. I would assume that they are shipped dry since they light without a problem when loaded.

I have not bought any butane fuel. You do not have to purchase any butane. They work just fine and last for a while. Very reasonable on theprice.

Yes, it has butane in it, and there is a screw on the bottom that turns to adjust the flame, with pretty much any screwdriver. But I went ahead and ordered the refill of fuel as well.

No it doesn't contain any Butane. You'll need to purchase some and fill it up as per the instructions. Butane cans should be found easy as they are also used for various lighters etc.

You need to buy the butane if I remember correctly. Its like $4 a can and lasts a while

Uses "refill" butane. No window to see fill amount---however, this torch is spot on---if it does not turn on, add butane and it immediately lights, which means the "fill was low". I had Meistermeisser and it failed miserably.

It comes filled (perhaps not fully) with butane...not a bad idea to buy a can, just to have, though, as this lighter doesn't hold a huge amount.

Yes the item comes empty as the description states. Shipping an item with flammable liquid and a means to ignite that liquid is prohibited by most shippers for obvious reasons. There are instructions included with the item on how to fill it.

Refill cans of butane can be found at most smoking/cigarette suppliers...Walmart etc..just fill the torch with the refill can

You need to use butane Fluid not zippo fluid it's not a zippo lighter. Simple fix :)

I bought this unit specifically to carry on my MC! There is absolutely zero chances for butane leakage plus there is no spark source in the Tool Roll anyway. I also carry a refill tank of butane as well as propane mini-tank for the camp cooker. In more than 20 years of summer MC touring I have never had a problem with this soldering torch or those that preceded it...

Nope. No stove that I am aware of does. Did not expect it to come with fuel. I buy fuel at the local sporting goods store.

Ships (arrives) empty. I went to my local cigar shop and bought some high quality butane. This is my favorite lighter.

Sound like ignitor is not creating any spark for the butane to light. I would consider returning it.

No, it comes empty. Often shipping things full of a compressed, flammable gas can be a problem. You have to buy your own butane, but the fill port is essentially universal, so it should work with most cans.

Hi Jini, have you filled the butane holders with fuel? They do not arrive full.
