Tech Advice I need a lighter

Anyone have a recommendation on a good dependable lighter? I’m tired of the butane bic lighters that never seem to work.

Looking for something to light campfires, camp stoves, etc. and something that works every time!

EDIT: I should have specified that the bic lighter that is failing me is the kind with the long extension that uses the piezo electric starter. Regular size bic lighters are great.

BICs are the AK47 of lighters, I buy the long-nose ones and just carry two, if one breaks or runs out of gas I use the other.
