Descripción del producto
The Zippo RAM Van Life Windproof Lighter (48764) is an officially licensed RAM lighter that turns the everyday flick-and-light into a small tribute to the open road. The Black Matte case carries a Color Image design of a RAM ProMaster van parked against a mountain landscape, beneath the RAM logo, made for anyone who lives the #vanlife or keeps it on their bucket list. Below you will find the design story, the windproof build, the finish, and exactly how to keep it lit.
A Licensed Tribute to Life on the Open Road
This is an officially licensed RAM lighter, produced by Zippo under license from RAM. The artwork is a full Color Image scene: a RAM ProMaster van silhouetted against a serene mountain landscape, anchored by the RAM logo, capturing the feeling of waking up to fresh air and wide open skies. The ProMaster has become one of the most recognized cargo vans behind the van-life movement, so the design speaks directly to road-trippers, campers, and RAM owners. Because it is a licensed collaboration rather than generic stock art, the 48764 reads as a genuine collectible, not a novelty print.
Genuine Windproof Build, Made in Bradford
Underneath the artwork is a genuine Zippo windproof lighter. The classic flip-top design and signature Zippo click open onto a windproof chimney that shields the flame, so it lights dependably outdoors and in a breeze. The case is solid brass with all-metal construction, made in Bradford, Pennsylvania, where Zippo has built its windproof lighters since 1933. Every genuine Zippo carries the Zippo lifetime guarantee, summed up as ‘it works or Zippo fixes it free’: if the mechanism ever fails, you send the lighter to Zippo and they repair it free of charge. El Paso Smoke Shops sells the lighter; Zippo honors the guarantee.
The Black Matte Finish and Color Image Artwork
The 48764 wears a Black Matte finish, a flat, low-glare coating that hides fingerprints and gives the case a rugged, stealthy look that lets the Color Image RAM Van Life artwork stand out. Black Matte is one of Zippo’s most popular everyday finishes precisely because it is understated and pairs with the printed design rather than competing with it. Like any matte coating, expect natural wear at the high-contact edges over years of pocket carry, which many collectors consider part of a Zippo’s character.
Fuel, Flints, and Wick: Keeping It Lit
Like every classic Zippo, the 48764 is refillable for a lifetime of use, so you replace consumables instead of the lighter. It ships empty for safety, with no fuel included. To fill it, lift the insert out of the case and slowly saturate the packing with Zippo premium lighter fluid, stopping before it overflows. Over time the flint wears down and the wick darkens with carbon: keep a pack of replacement flints on hand for reliable sparks, and swap in a replacement wick once the old one is too charred to trim. This is a flame lighter only, not a vaporizer and not a concealment device.

Preguntas y Respuestas
What does the RAM Van Life design on the 48764 Zippo show?
The 48764 features a full Color Image design of a RAM ProMaster van silhouetted against a serene mountain landscape, with the RAM logo anchoring the scene. It is an officially licensed RAM lighter produced by Zippo, made for fans of the #vanlife lifestyle and RAM owners. The image is printed on a flat Black Matte case so the artwork stands out.
Does this Zippo come with lighter fluid, and what fuel does it use?
No. For safety, the 48764 ships empty, so you add fuel before the first use. It is designed to run on Zippo premium lighter fluid, which is sold separately. To fill it, lift the insert out of the case and slowly saturate the packing material, stopping before it overflows so the lighter does not leak.
How do I replace the flint and wick on a Zippo windproof lighter?
Both are user-serviceable, which is why a Zippo lasts a lifetime. For the flint, unscrew the spring at the bottom of the insert, drop in a new flint, and retighten. For the wick, use tweezers to pull it up through the chimney and trim it level once or twice a year; replace it after a few trimmings when it stays charred. Keeping spare flints and a wick on hand means the 48764 is always ready to light.
Can I bring this Zippo lighter on a plane?
The TSA allows one Zippo-style lighter in your carry-on bag or on your person. Lighters with fuel are not permitted in checked bags unless they are in a DOT-approved case, so most travelers carry the lighter empty and refill at their destination. Rules can be stricter at international airports, so always confirm current TSA and airline policy before you fly.
Will the Black Matte finish wear off over time?
Black Matte is a durable flat coating that resists glare and hides fingerprints for everyday carry. Like any matte finish, the high-contact edges can show natural wear after years in a pocket, which many collectors view as part of a Zippo's earned character. The Color Image RAM Van Life artwork is printed to hold up to regular handling.
Is the RAM Van Life lighter officially licensed, and what does the guarantee cover?
Yes. It is an officially licensed RAM product made by Zippo under license from RAM, not unofficial fan art. Every genuine Zippo windproof lighter is covered by Zippo's lifetime guarantee, summed up as 'it works or Zippo fixes it free.' If the mechanism ever fails, you send the lighter to Zippo and they repair it free of charge. El Paso Smoke Shops sells the lighter; Zippo honors the guarantee.
You must be 21 or older with a valid government-issued photo ID to purchase. This is a windproof flame lighter, not a vaporizer and not a concealment device. It ships empty: no lighter fluid is included, and fuel is sold separately. Refill only with Zippo premium lighter fluid, keep away from children, and use responsibly. Availability is per store; check the live in-stock display on this page to see which El Paso Smoke Shops location currently has it.
