None of them burn inverted.I have the same problem with a Bernzomatic and with the one that it replaced. It just won’t stat lit. Won’t burn when inverted for more than a few seconds. Basically makes it useless. Sounds like the $20 unit is garbage and the $50 unit works as designed. I wish companies would stop selling things that they know are junk.
? i burn inverted all the time…?None of them burn inverted.
I was a plumbing contractor for 35 years and we always used the basic turbo torch with no igniter, burns propane and map gas, even upside down, easy to clean the orfice by putting it in backwards and blowing it out...I retired 10 years ago so I don't know if the quality has gone down but I'm still using the one I retired with...Just a simple, basic torch which screws onto a disposable cylinder and burns when you light it. Heat, solder, or start a bonfire, then turn off the valve until next time. That seems like an easy request but I haven't found one yet. I've bought two Bernzomatics and another brand (I don't recall the name as it went out in the trash.) Screw the tank on, light it and it may sputter for a few seconds but then it goes out.
Has anybody bought a torch in the last 5 years that worked?
You can get extended warrenty with itI have to agree. mine is 15 years old and I used it prolly 5k times already
