Product description

The Zippo Playboy Tie-Dye Rabbit Head Glow-in-the-Dark Lighter (model 48373) is a genuine, officially licensed Playboy windproof lighter from Zippo’s Playboy collection. It centers the iconic Playboy Rabbit Head inside a psychedelic tie-dye swirl, printed into a glow-in-the-dark green Classic brass case using Zippo’s Color Image process. By day it reads as a bold tie-dye pocket piece; once it has soaked up some light, the whole design glows green in the dark. El Paso Smoke Shops stocks it across our 10 El Paso, TX locations, and you can check the live availability on this page to see which store has one in stock right now.

The Tie-Dye Rabbit Head, Seen Two Ways

The standout feature is the glow-in-the-dark green finish. The case absorbs ambient light and releases it as a green glow when the room goes dark, so the tie-dye swirl and the Playboy Rabbit Head light up on their own. There is no battery and nothing to replace: set the lighter under normal room light for roughly 30 to 60 minutes for a full charge, or hold it under a UV blacklight and it charges in seconds. The glow is brightest for about the first 30 minutes, then settles into a softer shine, and you can recharge it any time it sees light. The artwork itself is applied with Zippo’s Color Image method, which prints the design into the surface rather than sticking a label on top, so the colors stay sharp through everyday pocket carry. The Playboy Rabbit Head is a trademark of Playboy Enterprises International, Inc., used under license by Zippo, which is what makes this an authentic collectible rather than a knockoff.

A Windproof Flame on a Solid Brass Case

Under the artwork this is a true Zippo windproof lighter. The all-metal Classic case is brass, opens with the unmistakable Zippo click, and produces a flame that holds steady in wind where a disposable butane lighter would blow out. Cup it in your hand and it lights virtually anywhere. Each genuine Zippo carries a dated bottom stamp that records the month and year it was manufactured in Bradford, Pennsylvania, a detail Playboy and Zippo collectors look for when they buy. The Classic size sits comfortably in a pocket and measures about 57 x 38 x 13 mm and weighs around 82 grams, so it has the reassuring heft Zippo is known for.

Refillable for Life and Backed by Zippo

This lighter is refillable for a lifetime of use, and it is backed by Zippo’s famous lifetime guarantee: it works or Zippo fixes it free. If a genuine Zippo ever fails mechanically, you send it to Zippo and they repair it free for life. Like every Zippo, it ships empty for safe transport, so fill the cotton packing with Zippo premium lighter fluid before the first light and stop when the fuel reaches the top of the packing. Over time the flint wears down with regular sparking, so keep a pack of replacement flints on hand, and after heavy use you can fit a replacement wick to keep it lighting cleanly. With basic upkeep, one of these lasts for decades.

Questions & Answers

How do you make the glow-in-the-dark Zippo 48373 glow?

Expose it to light to charge the finish, then take it into the dark and the green design glows on its own. Normal room light needs about 30 to 60 minutes for a full charge, while a UV blacklight charges it in seconds. There is no battery and nothing to replace, so the glow finish recharges every time it sees light.

How long does the glow last after charging?

The glow is brightest for roughly the first 30 minutes after a full charge, then fades to a softer shine. You can recharge it any time by setting it under a lamp, near a window, or under a blacklight.

Is this an authentic, officially licensed Playboy Zippo?

Yes. The Playboy Rabbit Head is a trademark of Playboy Enterprises International, Inc., used under license by Zippo. Every genuine Zippo also carries a dated bottom stamp showing the month and year it was made in Bradford, Pennsylvania, which is how collectors confirm it is real.

Does the Zippo come with lighter fluid?

No. Like every Zippo, it ships empty for safe transport and you fill it before the first use. Lift the insert, saturate the cotton packing with Zippo premium lighter fluid, stop when fuel reaches the top of the packing, and wipe your hands dry before lighting.

Is it refillable, and what happens if it ever stops working?

Yes, it is refillable for a lifetime of use and backed by Zippo's lifetime guarantee: it works or Zippo fixes it free. If a genuine Zippo ever fails mechanically, you send it to Zippo and they repair it free. Routine upkeep just means keeping replacement flints on hand and fitting a replacement wick after heavy use.

How many lights do you get from one fill?

A full fill gives roughly 200 lights. Naphtha fuel slowly evaporates over a week or two even when the lighter is not used, so keep the lid closed between uses and top it off before you head out.

Sold to adults 21 and older only; a valid government-issued photo ID is required at pickup. This is a genuine windproof flame lighter, not a vape and not a concealment device. It ships empty for safe transport, so Zippo premium lighter fluid is sold separately and must be added before the first use. Fill away from open flame, keep the lid closed between uses, and keep the lighter and fuel out of reach of children.
