Worked twice and then the igniter failed. I've passed the point of no return and I don't think that's fair as I've only used this item twice. I would not recommend purchasing this product due to ignition issues. I bought this for one reason and it was to light wood pellets in a pipe for cooking. I would strongly NOT recommend this for soldering as the flame was uneven and extremely difficult to shape and control. Simply lighting the wood pellets was fine; This only happens if the detonator fired, which failed on the third use. I keep it in a very dry place without dust etc.
