Descripción del producto
The Zippo Santa Cruz Skateboards Screaming Hand Black Light Lighter (model 48415) is a windproof, refillable pocket lighter in a black matte finish that pairs Jim Phillips’ legendary Screaming Hand graphic with Zippo’s UV-reactive Black Light process. El Paso Smoke Shops stocks this collectible Zippo across our El Paso, TX locations. Check the live availability on this page to see which El Paso store has it on the shelf right now.
The Screaming Hand, Reimagined Under Black Light
The artwork is Santa Cruz Skateboards’ Screaming Hand, drawn by artist Jim Phillips in 1985 and one of the most recognizable graphics in skateboarding history. On the 48415, the full-color image sits on a geometric background and is printed with Zippo’s specially formulated Black Light ink. Under everyday light you see the color design on a black matte case; hold it under an ultraviolet (black light) source and the treated areas fluoresce with a bluish glow. This is a black light design, not a glow-in-the-dark one, so it reacts to UV light rather than charging up in a dark room.
Windproof, Refillable, and Backed for Life by Zippo
Underneath the art is the Classic-case Zippo every collector knows: an all-metal brass case with a black matte coating and the signature windproof chimney that keeps a flame lit in gusty El Paso wind. It is fully refillable, so a single lighter is built to last for years rather than being thrown away. Every genuine Zippo windproof pocket lighter carries Zippo’s lifetime guarantee, summed up by the brand’s own promise that it works or Zippo fixes it free. The mechanism is repaired at Zippo’s factory in Bradford, Pennsylvania; El Paso Smoke Shops sells the lighter, and Zippo honors the guarantee directly.
Filling It and Keeping It Sparking
Like all Zippo windproof lighters, the 48415 ships empty because fuel cannot be shipped inside it, so you fuel it before the first use. Lift out the insert, slowly saturate the packing material with premium lighter fluid, and stop once the fluid reaches the top of the packing so it does not leak. The flint is a wear item that an average user replaces every few weeks, and a pack of replacement flints tucks neatly under the felt pad for later. When the wick darkens and trims down over time, fitting a replacement wick brings the flame back to full height. Running it on genuine Zippo fluid and flints gives the cleanest, most reliable spark.

Preguntas y Respuestas
Does the Zippo Screaming Hand lighter glow in the dark, or do you need a black light?
It is a black light design, so it glows under ultraviolet (black light), not on its own in a dark room. The Screaming Hand is printed with Zippo's specially formulated Black Light ink: under normal light you see the full-color art on the black matte case, and under a UV or black light source the treated areas fluoresce a bluish glow. It is not a glow-in-the-dark lighter, which would instead charge up under regular light.
Who designed the Screaming Hand on this Zippo, and what does it mean?
The Screaming Hand was created by artist Jim Phillips for Santa Cruz Skateboards in 1985 and is one of the most recognizable graphics in skateboarding history. Phillips imagined a hand made far more expressive by putting a screaming mouth in its palm. Santa Cruz adopted it as a brand image, and it has been a skate-culture icon ever since. This Zippo (model 48415) reproduces that artwork as a color image on a black matte case.
Does the Zippo 48415 come with lighter fluid?
No. Every Zippo windproof lighter, including the 48415, ships empty because fuel cannot be shipped inside it, so you fill it before the first use. We recommend Zippo premium lighter fluid for the cleanest, most reliable spark. Lift out the insert, slowly saturate the packing, and stop once the fluid reaches the top so it does not leak.
Is the 48415 windproof and refillable?
Yes. It uses Zippo's signature windproof chimney that keeps the flame lit in gusty conditions, and it is fully refillable, so a single lighter is built to last for years rather than being thrown away. Keep in mind it does not self-extinguish, so close the lid to put out the flame.
What does Zippo's lifetime guarantee cover, and who repairs it?
Zippo's lifetime guarantee covers the mechanical function of the lighter, summed up by the brand's promise that it works or Zippo fixes it free. If the mechanism ever fails, you send it to Zippo and they repair it free at their Bradford, Pennsylvania factory. El Paso Smoke Shops sells the lighter, and Zippo honors the guarantee directly. The guarantee covers the mechanism, not the printed artwork or normal wear.
How often do I replace the flint and wick on a Zippo?
An average user replaces the flint roughly every few weeks, and you can store spare flints under the felt pad for quick swaps. The wick lasts much longer, but when it darkens and shortens over time, fitting a fresh wick restores the flame height. Both are quick, tool-free swaps that keep your 48415 sparking for years.
Sold to Guests who are 21 and older only; a valid government-issued photo ID is required at pickup. This is a windproof, refillable flame lighter, not a vape or a concealment device. It ships empty for safety, so premium lighter fluid and flints are sold separately. The lifetime guarantee is Zippo's: it works or Zippo fixes it free, repaired by Zippo at their Bradford, Pennsylvania factory. Availability varies by store, so check the live availability on this page to see which El Paso location has it.
