    I am trying to identify this Ronson lighter. Can anyone help? The markings on the bottom are: RONSON, 15V, MADE IN FRANCE, then in a box, it looks like "PL 18 BAL" but it's hard to tell. Any help would be very much appreciated! Thank you.

      Hi aghcollect,

      Thank you for your comment but I don't think my Ronson lighter is a Varaflame. I looked for information about and photos of Varaflames on the Internet and my lighter looks nothing at all like this model. It has an electronic ignition and there is no way to vary the size of the flame. Any other suggestions?

      Note the "fingertip adjustable flame" swing-open mechanism on the bottom

      I stand corrected, aghcollect. You are absolutely correct: my lighter is a Ronson Varaflame Electronic 7 and is worth under $100. Mystery solved and thank you very much!!
