Wadoy Propane Torch Head Kit with 3 Nozzles, High Intensity Trigger-Start Soldering Torch Compatible with Bernzomaticc MAPP Propane for Soldering, Brazing, Welding, Map Gas Torch Head TS8000

Great torch! Fully functional out the box for me!Pro tip, buy the protection plan and label the torch or engrave it on there. Trust me, name brand or not, no torch is lasting 4 years if constantly used.Pros1. Feels and functions like the top of the line TS7000 (probably same factory). It's cast aluminum, brass parts. Solid.2. Ignites everytime. Strong spark. Some of these knock offs don't.3. Valves seal and don't leak. Be cautious threading onto bottle (that goes for every torch)4. Threaded tip. Can use with the Searz-all or even Bernzomatic tips. Or custom! It's great.5. Wide tip is great FOR searing. It's better than a Searz-all for small, fewer steaks. Way hotter. No such thing as "propane taste"6. Functions upside down. Some will sputter out and turn off, this one worked fine for several minutes full blast upside down with a half empty cold tank. Impressive.Cons1. 2 of the nozzles are nearly identical. Not sure how the Bernzomatic ones are but I'd rather have a much narrower nozzle.2. Flow control. It seems its closed or full blast and there's a lot of rotation on the screw. You CAN get it to low if you really finesse it but the threading here should've been halved. No big deal, I'm a full blast kinda person anyway 😌3. The flame isnt as "ultra swirled" as the Bernz. I tried adjusting it and couldn't get it. This has a "looser" flame. Just wider. I might buy the Bernz nozzles to get that precision.

Same quality as the Bernzomatic it replaced. I really like the trigger start instead of using a striker that always seemed to be out of reach when I needed it.

I use my torch heads alot! I read a lot of reviews and looked at differences in pricing. I saw reviews of stripped or cross threaded connections and adjustment valve sensitivity and so on!. I can say that what I ordered and received was this far as good as or better than anything I've owned. It is equal too the bernzo ts8000, the ts4000 and the ace hardware as well. The adjustment knob is brass where as the bernzo is plastic. No thread issues, lights the first time Everytime, UPSIDE DOWN, as well. I realize that in mass production there will be a few lemons, but man at half the price, this is one heck of a jug of Lemonade. With extra torch heads. Wouldn't hesitate to purchase again and highly recommend it!

After daily and repedatory usage I can affirm that it does its job if heating things up

I haven’t used it much but it seems to work great . I also like that extra nozzles it comes with .
