Bernzomatic Trigger Start Torch (TS 8000 Torch) | High Output Hand Torch for Weed Burner, Soldering, Brazing & Cooking | Fits Propane Tank | Heavy Duty Torch Head

I needed a torch for starting charcoal fires for my pizza oven. A bit overkill but this torch is awesome. Flame adjust knob works great too.. Lights almost every time I click. I'm able to get the charcoal lit in about 30 seconds with just charcoal, no additional starter needed, 10-15 min the coals are ready. Inverting the bottle does not affect the flame and stays strong the entire time (something my manual nozzle did not do). I'm sure it works great for soldering as it generates a much bigger flame than my manual torch head I was using before. I thought about buying a kitchen torch for 1/2 the price, but after using this thing i'm glad I spent the money.

This is what I'd consider the ideal torch. I primarily use this for 4th of July to light fireworks. There is not a better tool for the job, bar none. I've used every kind of ligher, punks, and even road flares. It's a large powerful flame that instantly ignites when you pull the trigger, and instantly goes out when you release the trigger. You can adjust the flame from a decent size to quite powerful(for a blow torch). It is well constructed, heavy but not overly so, and withstand abuse very well. It's even been contaminated with a lot of sand at the beach several times and once you blow it out it is perfectly fine. I've only used this torch for about 13 months, but it still works as well as day one.Lots of power for soldering and brazing as well, but I'll be honest this is my fireworks torch. It's very efficient, one propane canister can light hours worth of fireworks because it only uses fuel when you are holding the trigger, which isn't long since lighting even the largest fuses or sparklers is a breeze.I've also used it to sear meat after sous vide but I have a much more powerful tool better suited for that job (it's a huge flame that's not as concentrated), but this is 10x better than your standard butane culinary torch.

La torche fonctionne à merveille.J'ai mis du temps à recevoir la torche à cause d'un transporteur DHL défaillant. Bon contact avec le service commercial qui a fait tout son possible pour rattraper la situation.

I needed a new torch tip as I was using a pencil tip with mixed results and high effort. I considered getting a turbo-torch tx4 but the price was 2-3 times as much as this tip with the same features. Straight out of the box the body seems to be made of solid aluminum and the quality is good, especially the tip. Unit has some heft to it. Using the torch I noticed the amount of heat this torch puts out with MAP gas is astounding. It would not surprise me if you could braze 3/8-7/8ths copper with this if you did not have a air or oxy/acetylene torch. Very impressive, 3/4" soldering can be done within seconds of heating the fitting/pipe.This is an excellent tool. It heats the fittings so fast that you will need to turn the heat down with the handy adjustable output knob. I was also pleased by the ignition speed and reliability, it lights fast and almost every time.Pros:- Excellent value- Good build quality- Adjustment knob- Locking button for the flame to stay litSome cons:- Weight, this item is kind of heavy, makes the small MAP tanks abit tipsy if you sent them down momentarily- Yellow ignition button is gonna get filthy really fast if you use gloves soldering, minor but notable.- Overkill for light duty work. I would recommend a pencil tip for light duty work, which is cheaper and spreads heat slower. easier to learn with.

Vale lo que cuesta, luego luego se nota la calidad. Su encendido por chispa es muy cómodo. También lo es el gatillo con seguro para dejar abierta la flama y el apagado con un solo toque; pero la característica que me es más útil es la de que esta boquilla funciona el posición invertida, esto me permite soldar tranquilamente conectores de tubería de cobre que están por debajo del nivel del piso, cosa que antes se me complicaba mucho porque el resto de las boquillas que usé, en esa posición funcionaban un par de segundos y se apagaba la llama. Era lo que me faltaba para estar preparado para cualquier tipo de arreglo de tubería de cobre.
