      Plot twist. It was 1 zippo lighter, but it was a comically large one. It just weighs 20 lbs.

            Well, it could be a flamethrower wit ha novelty zippo style casing, but if it’s simply an upscaled zippo it’s going to lack the pressure feed mechanism a flamethrower has to cause the fuel to ‘throw’ out and instead would just be a fairly sizeable flame at the opening.
