Gas or liquid fuel lighter?

<p>My backpack of course has a rechargeable gas lighter. I am considering buying a good Zippo, as I feel it more resistant, and it does not need to be kept with your hands to stay on. Would you suggest this move, or should I keep the gas lighter? I am also thinking about the potential additional use of the fuel (gasoline can be used also for other things, while propane is limited to the lighter).</p>
~~<p>To conclude, would you think a Zippo is a good tool for camping/backpacking/survival, or is it prone to disadvantages ?</p>~~
