Product description
The Zippo Cannabis Design Frequency lighter (model 48928) is a genuine windproof pocket lighter from Zippo’s Cannabis Collection, finished with the brand’s Color Image printing process. Across both sides you get a bold cannabis leaf anchoring a playful scene of curious space creatures and vibrant planets, rendered in the multi-color Frequency style. It is all-metal, refillable for a lifetime of use, and backed by Zippo’s well-known guarantee. Like every Zippo windproof lighter, the 48928 ships empty with no fuel inside, so plan to fuel it before its first use. Our Hosts stock this lighter at El Paso Smoke Shops; check the live availability on this page to see which of our El Paso stores has it on the shelf.
The Frequency Color Image Design
The 48928 belongs to Zippo’s Cannabis Collection and uses the Color Image process, a printing method that wraps full-color artwork across the lighter’s surfaces. The Frequency design centers a bold cannabis leaf and surrounds it with curious space creatures and vibrant planets, giving the case a vivid, almost cosmic look. Color Image art is printed onto the case rather than engraved, so the colors stay sharp and the scene reads clearly from across a room. It is a collectible piece as much as a working tool, which is why guests who build out a Zippo collection often look for the Cannabis Collection designs specifically by model code.
Windproof by Design
Every Zippo windproof lighter, including the 48928, is built around the signature windproof chimney that shields the flame, so it lights and stays lit in conditions that snuff out disposable lighters. The case is solid metal (brass and steel construction) with the unmistakable Zippo click when you flip the lid. Zippo has manufactured its windproof lighters in Bradford, Pennsylvania since 1932, and that build quality is the reason a single insert can serve for decades. This is a flame lighter for lighting candles, grills, and tobacco products; it is not a vape and not a concealment device.
Refillable for Life: Fuel, Flints, and Wick
The 48928 is fully refillable, which is the heart of the Zippo design. It runs best on genuine Zippo premium lighter fluid; slowly saturate the packing material inside the insert and stop as soon as the fluid reaches the top of the packing, since overfilling causes leaks. Lighter fluid evaporates over time even when the lighter sits unused, so keep the lid closed and top it off before a night out. The flint and wick are normal wear items: a worn flint is swapped from the bottom of the insert, and the cotton wick is trimmed as it darkens and eventually replaced. Because the 48928 ships empty, having fuel on hand means it is ready to use the moment you get home.
Zippo's Lifetime Guarantee
This lighter is covered by Zippo’s lifetime guarantee, summed up in the brand’s long-standing promise that it works or Zippo fixes it free. The guarantee covers mechanical function, not cosmetic wear, loss, or theft, and there is no time limit and no repair charge. If the mechanism ever fails, you send the lighter to Zippo and Zippo repairs it free of charge. To be clear, El Paso Smoke Shops sells the lighter and Zippo honors the repair guarantee; we do not perform the repairs ourselves. That lifetime backing is a big part of why a Zippo is treated as a keep-forever tool rather than a throwaway lighter.

Questions & Answers
What does the Frequency Color Image design on the 48928 show?
The 48928 is part of Zippo's Cannabis Collection and shows a bold cannabis leaf surrounded by curious space creatures and vibrant planets. The art is applied with Zippo's Color Image process, a full-color printing method, in the multi-color Frequency style, so the cosmic scene stays sharp and vivid across the metal case.
Does this Zippo come filled with lighter fluid?
No. Like every Zippo windproof lighter, the 48928 ships empty with no fuel inside, packed in a gift box. You fill it yourself before the first use with genuine Zippo premium lighter fluid. Fuel is sold separately, so plan to pick some up alongside the lighter so it is ready to light when you get home.
How do I refill this Zippo lighter?
Lift the insert out of the case, then slowly saturate the packing material with lighter fluid and stop as soon as the fluid reaches the top of the packing or begins to change color, because overfilling makes it leak. Keep the lid closed between uses, since the fluid evaporates over time, and top it off before heading out.
How do I replace the flint or wick on this lighter?
Both are simple, routine maintenance. For the flint, unscrew the spring at the base of the insert, drop in a fresh flint, and retighten; you can grab replacement flints for it. The cotton wick darkens with carbon over time, so trim it even with the chimney as it ages, and after a few trims swap in a replacement wick to keep the flame strong.
Can I bring this Zippo lighter on a plane?
TSA allows one empty Zippo-style lighter in your carry-on bag or on your person, but not in checked baggage. You cannot bring lighter fluid or fuel refills through security at all. The safe approach is to travel with the lighter empty and refill it with fluid once you reach your destination.
Is this Zippo covered by a guarantee?
Yes. The 48928 carries Zippo's lifetime guarantee, the brand's long-standing promise that it works or Zippo fixes it free. It covers mechanical function with no time limit, though not cosmetic wear or loss. If the mechanism ever fails, you send it to Zippo and Zippo repairs it free; El Paso Smoke Shops sells the lighter and Zippo honors the repair.
Adults 21+ only. A valid government-issued photo ID is required at pickup. This is a windproof flame lighter, not a vape and not a concealment device. It ships empty with no fuel inside; Zippo premium lighter fluid is sold separately and must be added before first use.
