Wish the flame was a little larger

I repair band instruments for a living, and this torch gets used on a daily basis. This is my second Solder-It PH-200 torch. The first one lasted me 10 years of daily use. Yes, it's a little spendy compared to the 'cheap torches' all over the internet and in box stores, but the seals in the Solder-It torches last a LONG time so they don't start leaking butane gas after 2 weeks, unlike every cheap torch I've used in the past. I was using torches from the big 'mart of wall', from a brand that sounds like "burns-o-matic', going through them in 3 weeks because the seals would give up the ghost in that time frame under heavy use. Not the Solder-it, these are well-made tools. Spend a little more and get this one, you won't be disappointed.

To small

work well and good price

Unfortunately I purchased one to smoke my daps and it doesn't get the stem hot enough to be any good.
