I don't know actually invented the butane lighter, but the first disposable lighters were invented by BIC in 1973.
The fourth of the methane series. Methane, ethane, propane, butane, pentane, hexane, heptane, octane, ... Fourth is butane, like in a bic lighter.
1918
It can be difficult to see the flame. You don't have a way of seeing what your level is, when you run out you will not usually have a refill can with you. Butane lighters require more maintenance than a Bic lighter. Butane costs more. Especially triple filtered.
Supposedly the highest selling BIC lighter color is black and the lowest selling is yellow. But honestly I couldn't find a yellow BIC anywhere for months when I went looking so that's no surprise to me.
no you can not refill a bic they are factory sealed
yes.

An average BIC lighter can cost anywhere from $0.50-$1.50. Depending on which state you live in, the tax can be high or low.

From my experience, I was able to carry a Bic lighter with me in my check in baggage.
Bic lighters are the best
you cant the bottom of the bic is welded by high pressure sounds that melts plastic together
