Yes, you can refill a large lighter if it's designed to be refillable. Look for a refill valve, often located at the bottom of the lighter. Use a can of butane fuel, ensuring the nozzle fits the valve on your lighter. Turn the lighter upside down, insert the fuel nozzle into the valve, and press firmly for a few seconds. Wait a moment before attempting to ignite the lighter, allowing the gas to settle and the lighter to return to room temperature.
