You know a butane torch lighter is full when you hear a hissing sound stop after pressing the refill nozzle into your lighter's filling valve. At this point, liquid butane cannot be added anymore, indicating the lighter is full. Additionally, for some models, a small amount of butane might start to leak out once full, which is a clear sign to stop refilling to avoid overfilling and wasting butane.
