Review on πŸ”₯ BernzOmatic Brass Pencil Flame Propane Torch Head: Perfect for Basic Use UL2317 by Steven Pankey

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Great quality but with feeding and ignition issues

First of all I really, really, REALLY wanted to like this product. It fit perfectly and was exactly what I needed for my outdoor grill. Firing this device, however, is a whole different matter. I bought a flint igniter for this torch and every time I wanted to use it it took me about 7-10 tries to light this torch. Of course you could just make a fire and then use the fire to light your torch, but I would prefer a torch that you could light :D Anyway, once lit the device works quite well but has problems with pressure regulation when it is even slightly tilted. When this happens, the supply becomes kind of spurty and cut off, requiring reignition. And just because it lit earlier doesn't mean it ignites faster. It takes me about 7 more attempts to reignite. Of course, these flashlights can't be turned upside down or laid on their side, but a 15-25 degree tilt doesn't seem that incredible. 3/5: Good for the price but not a perfect product.

Pros
  • Manual start (Lighter with Bernzomatic Spark Lighter, sold separately)
Cons
  • I will add later
