Very good quality, never get caught without lighter fuel

I bought one of these to hold spare fuel for a lighter and small hand warmer. I was surprised at how well it is constructed. The reservoir isn't huge, but has enough to fill a lighter 2 or three times, and a hand warmer once. There are two seals that prevent leakage, I've had no problems with leakage, but I attached the sections firmly.

Well intended, but poorly constructed.

This item would be very useful if it were better quality.

I got one of these and noticed, after a short time of using it as a keychain, that it slowly leaks. I sent it back to Zippo and they replaced it for free, which is very cool of them, but the replacement they sent me has the same problem. Now I'm starting to think this problem is not specific to one canister.

So, if it didn't leak, it would be great. Since it leaks, I can't really use it for what I'm supposed to be able to use it for. I have to carry it upright all the time and I can't put it in my pocket, since I don't want my leg to catch on fire if I happen to be near an open flame.

Also, the "flint sleeve" on this thing is useless. You can put your flint into it, but it's very difficult to get it back out.
