xikar lighter

don't remember a previous post on these, but just received ( from famous-smoke@$ 19.95) a xikar dual torch lighter. must say, so far, very impressed. refilled twice/thrice at least w/no problems (using vector fuel). reasonable fuel capacity. no registration material enclosed but xikar customer service advised ok to register on-line (haven't tried it yet). anyone else out there w/similar positive (or negative) experience w/ this item??

Just checked their website. Can't find the lighter you spoke of, but am very interested. Can anyone help with a source? Thanks!
