      The lighter best resembles the Varaflame Empire model made from 1964-1969, not a bestseller so is uncommon, described as "metal cover available silver-plated or chrome-plated with lighter filament section housed within cover, quite heavy as casted from metal and heavy silver-plated, 3-legged base with green felt pads on feet". - That is the closest model I could find to your photos. - If the sticker is still on the bottom it would say manufactured in Woodbridge, NJ.
      Re: Battery - VR22 Battery is cylindrical, smaller than an AAA battery, measuring only 28.9 mm long and 10.3 mm in diameter, with a typical weight of 8 grams; however, this battery must not be confused with a similar single-cell N battery. VR22 Battery is an 8-cell device with a nominal voltage of 12 V. The higher voltage is necessary for the radio frequency-transmitting and receiving devices which this battery often power. It has a capacity of around 55 mAh.
      VR22 Battery cross reference to the following battery:
      Energizer: A23
      Duracell: MN21
      VARTA: V23GA
      EVEREADY: A23
      NEDA: 1811A
      IEC: 3LR50
      Panasonic: LR-V08
      ELPA: SES-23A
      MS21

      Hi, right model but the top of the lighter is a Ronson electronic lighter?
