Anybody have one of these and use it? Am I better off just getting a good lighter or is the built in LED actually useful? They are kinda hard to find of late.

I bought one in May.
Lighter works well. At full blast it gives a decent flame. Still nowhere near a Blazer PB-207, but then again, that's a pretty unfair comparison.
Mine seems solid enough, but I haven't abused it. I carried it in my front pocket for a few months. Lights up on the first try every time.
The light isn't very strong. It's not bad for the first few minutes, but dims quickly. Not sure how long the batteries will last.
Overall, not bad, but I went back to the old Blazer after a while. I don't think it's the best lighter, nor the best flashlight, so it's a compromise at best. I'll be trying a Z-plus insert next.
