I have been lurking here for several years, so I hope this is worthy to post.

I was at Wal-Mart and I found one of these in the check-out isle:

http://www.bicworld.com/inter_en/lighters/cases/c2metal.asp
Pros: 1. Easily refillable with another mini-bic
2. For my larger car-kit/EDC it solves the problem of preventing a mini-bic getting the butane switch pushed on
3. handy lanyard hole
4. Cheap
Cons: 1. not ultra light-weight (heavier than the lighter itself)
2. not water-proof

Wish someone would re-engineer it to be lighter in weight and water-proof, then it would be very handy.
