A couple quick thoughts on 'the DX lighter'. Part of the advantage for us with VM is the angle of the head and button WRT the body I think. Not only is it a 'natural pointer' but holding the valve open calls for pressing against your index finger, rather than down so you don't need to hold it at an awkward angle nor grip it tight to keep it from slipping down.
Secondly the large volume of the tank helps fight the natural cooling that happens as the gas evaporates. That is it's more stable in use than many with smaller reservoirs and similar delivery rates.
BTW, this source is a bit cheaper right now, the same ones I got last time from DX:
