Personally - I really disliked the Clubs. I found they seriously lingered (in taste and smell on clothes).
So much so it reminded me of smoking for the first time and really noticing the smells etc.
One tip for getting more gas in a lighter is to put it in a freezer for a few hours before filling. Be sure to use a cloth so it does not stick to your fingers and let it come back to room temp before use.

Little medical correction there Steve, you will surely die...but not from smoking these
You need to let out the air in some lighters before refilling. You may want to try this to see if it helps:
Hold the lighter upside down so the refill valve is pointing up, use a small phillips screw driver or something similar and press gently on the centre of the valve and it will release the air.
Hold it there until the hissing goes quiet, then refill as you normally would. Do this outdoors in a safe area (and away from your face/flames etc) as it may also release a small amount of gas with the air...
A couple off don't do's in lighter filling & care..
Don't put them in the freezer to aid filling..the plastics used are sonically welded & susceptible to failure at low temperatures as are valve 'o' rings..
Don't clean plastic bodied lighters or lighters with a plastic tank in ultrasonic cleaners either..same reason.
Even more pictures (again) of my Colibri collection by popular request only...
