Review on πŸ”₯ BLUEFIRE HZ-8388B Self Igniting 3-Foot Gas Welding Torch with Swirl Flame, Compatible with MAPP, MAP Pro, and Propane Fuel (Torch) by Adam Johnson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Be sure to solder copper tubing

I had 10 burst pipes during the last freezing weather in Texas. I took out my propane torch but it couldn't generate enough heat to heat the frozen pipes and melt the solder! Then I got this burner and it heats up so quickly and easily that I will never go back to propane. This burner uses MAPP gas, which burns hot enough to make a very noticeable difference. We don't normally have a problem with propane in Texas, but this experience made me believe in MAPP gas and an easy-to-use burner. The torch itself is self-igniting, which is huge. No need to fiddle with a striker or a lighter. It also has a nice hose that lets you get the bottle out of the way and work with just a handheld torch. I highly recommend using this torch and MAPP gas for your soldering needs.
