A Zippo lighter is considered windproof due to a combination of its design features, primarily the chimney (or windscreen) and its liquid fuel wick system. Key Features of the Windproof Design Protective Chimney: The metal insert features a chimney with 16 holes (8 on each side). This design allows air to pass through at an adequate rate to supply oxygen to the flame, while simultaneously shielding it from direct wind gusts that would typically extinguish a flame on a standard, non-windproof lighter. Wick and Liquid Fuel System: Zippos use a wick that is saturated with light petroleum distillate (lighter fluid or naphtha). Unlike lighters that use pressurized butane gas, the liquid fuel and wick system provides a consistent and robust fuel delivery to the flame that is less sensitive to air pressure changes or sudden wind. Flame Dynamics: The interaction between the airflow through the chimney holes and the stable burn of the naphtha-soaked wick allows the flame to remain lit in harsh weather conditions. This design makes it difficult to extinguish the flame by blowing on it from the side. The proper way to put out a Zippo lighter is by closing the lid, which starves the flame of oxygen.
