Product description
Looking for the Zippo Texas Red Pepper windproof lighter in El Paso? This one wears a bold red chili pepper design on an all-brass case, a fun nod to our Southwestern love of heat. Reserve it online and pick it up the same day at El Paso Smoke Shops.
A Southwestern chili pepper you can carry
The case shows a bright red chili pepper with flame accents, a Texas and Southwestern motif that plays on our region’s love of hot peppers and heat. It is a decorative theme design, not a licensed or official collection artwork, so the red pepper simply pops against the brass case. It flips open with the classic Zippo click and closes to snuff the flame, giving you a lighter that looks as good on the counter as it works in your hand.
Built windproof, refillable for life
Under the artwork sits Zippo’s genuine windproof insert. The flame burns inside a perforated chimney windscreen, so a well-fueled Zippo stays lit in stiff wind that would snuff a normal disposable. It runs on Zippo premium lighter fluid, sold separately, and the flint and wick swap out in minutes, so one lighter lasts for years. Every Zippo carries the lifetime guarantee: if it ever fails to work, Zippo fixes it free.
Swing by your nearest El Paso Smoke Shops for the Zippo Texas Red Pepper. It is $26.95, refillable, and backed by Zippo’s lifetime guarantee. Find your store, check stock, and pick one up today with a valid 21+ photo ID at the counter.

Questions & Answers
What is the Texas Red Pepper chili design about?
It shows a bright red chili pepper with flame accents, a Texas and Southwestern motif that plays on our region's love of hot peppers and heat. It is a decorative theme design, not a licensed or official collection artwork. The red pepper stands out against the brass case for a bold Southwestern look.
Does the Texas Red Pepper Zippo come filled with lighter fluid?
No. Like all Zippo lighters, it ships with an empty tank because fuel cannot be shipped inside the lighter. You fill it before the first use with Zippo premium lighter fluid, which is sold separately. Add a little at a time, then wipe off any excess before you spark it.
Does the Texas Red Pepper Zippo stay lit in El Paso wind?
Yes, it is genuinely wind-resistant. The flame burns inside a perforated chimney windscreen that shelters it while still feeding it air, so a well-fueled Zippo stays lit in stiff wind that would snuff a normal disposable lighter. In very strong gusts any open flame can be pushed around, so it is best called highly wind-resistant.
How do I refill and maintain the Texas Red Pepper Zippo?
The bright red-chili motif is printed on the case, so it never comes near the fuel inside the insert. Lift the insert out, raise the felt pad, and moisten the packing with Zippo premium lighter fluid until damp rather than dripping. When sparks weaken, seat a new flint using the spring-loaded screw on the bottom, and thread a fresh wick as soon as the flame shrinks.
Is the Texas Red Pepper Zippo covered by Zippo's lifetime guarantee?
Zippo's lifetime guarantee covers how the lighter works, summed up as "it works or we fix it free." If the mechanism ever fails, you send it to Zippo in Bradford, Pennsylvania and they repair the working parts at no charge. We sell the lighter; Zippo performs the repair. The guarantee does not cover the printed chili pepper artwork or surface scratches.
What is the Texas Red Pepper case made of and where is it made?
The case is all brass, printed with the Texas Red Pepper design, and it is made in Bradford, Pennsylvania, where Zippo has built its windproof lighters since 1932. It is an all-metal, Regular-size lighter with the signature Zippo click, weighing about 2.0 ounces.
Is the Texas Red Pepper Zippo legal to buy in Texas?
Yes. A refillable flame lighter like this Zippo is legal to buy in Texas for guests 21 and older, and we check a valid photo ID at the counter. It is a windproof lighter, not a vape and not a concealment device. Bring your ID and pick one up at El Paso Smoke Shops.
How does the Texas Red Pepper compare to a plain chrome Zippo?
Both use the same all-brass windproof case and the same lifetime guarantee, so they light and last the same way. The difference is the artwork. The Texas Red Pepper wears a bold red chili pepper motif, which makes it a stronger gift or conversation piece than a plain polished chrome Zippo. Pick the look you like best.
How much does the Texas Red Pepper Zippo cost?
The Zippo Texas Red Pepper is $26.95 at El Paso Smoke Shops. It is a genuine windproof, refillable lighter backed by Zippo's lifetime guarantee. Check your nearest store for current stock, reserve online, and pick it up the same day with a valid 21+ photo ID at the counter.
Sales restricted to guests 21 or older; 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 in the tank, so premium lighter fluid is sold separately and must be added before the first use. Use responsibly and keep away from children.
