I know it’s not vogue or sexy, but the inexpensive Bic Lighter had done me well for years.

It lights when I want it to, every time.

It’s waterproof, if it gets wet, blow on it for a min and it’s back up & running.

As far as not working when cold, I keep it in my pants pocket where it keeps warm enough to light even on the coldest of days.

And while it’s inexpensive, it seems to be well enough made. As evidence of this you see people all over in all kinds of weather and conditions using them with success.
