I use zippo lighters since 20 years, if correctly maintained, filled and used I need a charge every 7 days.

What I've heard is that a small sealed Ziploc bag is what extends the shelf life. Keeps fuel from evaporating away while not in use.

Not reliable u are grossly mistaken. I live in Canada and a zippo is the only lighter I could have outside in the winter. Works when wet , works when frozen solid, works at high altitude. I do not go into the bush with a bic because of its unreliability in the winter. You don’t throw away your car every time it runs out of gas.

You can always cover the lighter with inner tubing and replace the gasket with a plastic one. It will last for weeks!

You can always just carry flints and a small can of lighter fluid in your pack. Still cheaper than buying disposable lighters and more environmentally friendly. It's called "planning."

Its a lighter built for a smoke. So I'd imagine you'd refill numerously. Though if were talking length of time, TRUE time. I have two 74 year old zippos that both work amazingly for their age.

You can change insert in zippo to butane. I am refiling my zippo every 7 days with 5-6 grams of fluid that is 8-9ml.

but you can put everything in your zippo if you really need to, i cant stuff gasoline in a bic

Actually, Zippo lighters make the best survival tool due to the fact that You can repurpose or scrounge for alternative fuels such as 90 percent Isopropyl Alcohol, actual Unleaded Gasoline like was commonly used during WW2 and even some lighter vapor-based fuels, Your findings are incorrect on the lack of viability for using it for survival. Also, side note, with common lighters such as Bic which require a completely vapor-based and not fluid-based fuel source it would be virtually impossible to repurpose anything to use for fuel in a survival scenario, You could repurpose the flint as a sparker for lighting tender, but, that's all. Many and most Survivalists utilize and recommend a Zippo for these reasons, also, the simple design and relatively simplistic nature make for easy troubleshooting and repair in the field if necessary.
