Most likely. The law and "children" is designed to keep hazardous materials out of the hands of children. After 18, it is presumed that you will not do stupid stuff like try to blow up the outhouse with lighter fluid. It also presumes that it will prevent smoking in an indirect way. If you have a refillable lighter and you can't refill it, what use is it? Lighter fluid is a hazardous material because of its low flash point, so the law is most likely tied to the federal ones about hazardous materials.

What age can you legally purchase a lighter in Colorado?

If it is a case lighter (that is a Zippor or Ronson) that is unfilled, you are able to purchase it at any age. The hazardous materials act of your state will give you information about purchasing lighter fluid or disposable lighters in your state. It is not illegal to own a case lighter, it is just illegal to own the materials to make it work.

What if the pad does not absorb the lighter fluid?

You are doing this action incorrectly. There is a small hole in the pad, look for it. This hole leads to the wadding UNDER the pad and this wadding is what holds the lighter fluid. The hole is there to wet the wadding which in turn will fill and make the pad wet. This is how you know the lighter is full.

When you purchase a zippo lighter what comes with it?

If you buy the lighter, it comes with the case (the outer part of the lighter), the lighter (the inner piece where the wick comes out of the chimney), one wick, one flint, and the filler material that you put fluid onto. You can also purchase kist that come with spare wicks, flints, and a can of Zippo brand fluid. When I bought mine they did not offer the kits, so I bought the lighter, some fluid, some wicks, and some flints and it was under $40 for the whole mess.

Does zippo lighter take the same lighter fluid as a bic lighter?

No. Bic lighters -- and most other throwaway lighters -- use butane gas, which liquefies under modest pressure. When struck, the pressure tank is opened and the butane vaporizes and travels through a small orifice, or jet, to the spark wheel. Zippos, of course, use a naphtha-based liquid lighter fluid and a woven textile wick, which conducts the fluid to the spark wheel.
