[QUOTE="Kyle Weiss, post: 303345, member: 1969"] Usually the piezoelectric ignition housing fails before the actual crystal/striker mechanisms do, but if they're built well, they could (potentially) last for decades. They routinely fail (temporarily) at altitude, cursed up quite a storm when on the job and climbed up from about 5,000ft to 7,500ft and suddenly, with all the views, a perfect rock, a pipe...and no working lighter. Had no idea what happened until I got back to base camp (fortunately, at that time, a cheap motel) and it started working again. Did some research, and now I stick with flint lighters when climbing about outdoors. 8) [/QUOTE]
