I’m really digging this Zippo brand brass shell with a Zippo single (they also make a double) torch insert. It’s running really well on quality butane and behaving really well with my out and about caps. Will it be short lived? Though a bit small in the hand I’d like it to be my go to out of the house torch.

I have the same insert. Been using it almost daily since the beginning of May. Works juuuuuust fine with my OG '17M. I fill it up like every 4th day.
Speaking of my '17M, I have decided that I need to upgrade(as well as pick up a C-Vap to gift out to a worthy soul
).
I have the aforementioned M, as well as a SS tip(and cap, which are currently on a beaten and battered DDave water wand) purchased mid August 2018.
I am torn between the 3 low(ER) cost options available on the Dynavap website. There is the Ti hydravong(with whatever current version of the Ti tip), the BB3 with 2020 SS tip(and regular cap), or the 2020M with the captive cap.
On the Hydravong, I have never used a Ti tip, so don't know if I am missing something, but I know that I am slow to respond to the click on occasion(which I read is bad), so do I want that? Also, I have WP needs covered, so the stem would be kind of moot.
The BB3 seems simple enough, though I would need a fat mouthpiece, as I only use a glass stem at home with a dry water piece, and my stem is 14mm(although, again, I have these needs covered).
The 2020M? Well, who doesn't love an M? But I keep reading mixed reviews about the captive cap, and the new tip.
Then again, there is also the DDave combo with stem/cap/tip/water piece for $50ish dollars.....
What to do, what to do....
Suggestions?
