Just a thought......but a lighter needs oxygen to function. Doesn't matter
if the fuel is lit by electric spark or flint.......the oxygen is still not
there.

Ain't that the truth. We went camping a month ago at 11,000ft, and
even Bics wouldn't light. I've tried making the gas-oxygen blend on my
jets richer and thinner, but haven't found a perfect setting. However,
here in Denver, flint lighters work perfectly.
