How do you know when a butane lighter is full?
Use 3-second bursts to refill the lighter. You can tell that the lighter is full because the butane will start to leak from the stem and won’t go into the lighter. Depending on how empty the lighter is, it may take 2-3 bursts to fill it. Some lighters have a gauge that shows the fuel level.
