What Can you fill a butane lighter with?

you can fill a butane lighter with lot's of things but you only want to use butane or (only if you have an adjustable lighter) propane. some of my freinds tried Ethane and they could either get it to burn a lighter up or it wouldn't light so it's hard to balance if you use that.

Can you refill the butane cartridge of the curling iron?

When they first came out, 30 years ago, they were designed to simply refill with butane for cigarette lighters.

If you can get the openng to allow it you simply use regular butane.

Propane is used in much the same way as butane, meaning as a fuel and someone schooled in the handling and use of such products is a fantastic source for such information.
