BERNZOMATIC Worthington 336737 WT2301 Trigger Start Propane Torch

BERNZOMATIC Worthington 336737 WT2301 Trigger Start Propane Torch Trigger-start ignition easily ignites the flame Versatile webbed flame completes a variety of household projects, including small diameter soldering, thawing, melting and heat application Use only with propane fuel, such as the Bernzomatic 14.1 oz. Propane Hand Torch Cylinder Angled stainless steel burn tube Flame control valve easily sizes flame and extinguishes when finished Top reviews from the United States Exactly what I wanted The fit and finish on this torch is excellent. It starts reliably after two presses on the igniter button. Flame is adjustable within a narrow range, but certainly good enough for most home brazing tasks. I use this with a 1 pound propane bottle (short, stubby type) and it works perfectly. I suspect the people who had problems with their torch were using the tall, skinny bottles. That can be problematic because of a characteristic of the propane. As propane is released from the pressurized container, it cools off suddenly, which may cause ice buildup in the tank&neck. The ice blocks propane flow, resulting in weak flame. The short, stubby bottles don&cool off so suddenly, so you won&get the ice problem very often.
