Review on OptiFlame™ Propane/Mapp Gas Torch: Self Ignition, Adjustable for Efficient Brazing in Challenging Environments by Ryan Marx

Revainrating 1 out of 5

I wish I could make it work!

The torch worked for about a month. I am really disappointed. This product has such good reviews. Mine fell off and now I can't light it until I bring the lighter to the torch once the gas is turned on. But the small sprocket doesn't fit properly, so I can't use it at altitude. When I turn it on at full power, the torch behaves like it's about to explode. So I just use my old no frills light when I go with the torch head. Such a shame. I've tried searching online for a troubleshooting guide but haven't come up with anything.

Pros
  • Metal igniter
Cons
  • Very expensive
