BernzOmatic Basic Use UL2317 Brass Pencil Flame Propane Torch Head (UL2317 Torch)

I used this to fab up my own water hammer arrestors. A replaced an older ignitor that couldn't give good Enough heat. This worked great after 30-40 seconds on the joint the solder just got sucked right into the joint.

Me salió buena

Great as expected

Works perfectly

I experienced the same issue other reviewers noted: the pinhole where gas comes through is too small, won't let gas through, and thus won't ignite. I thought that was the issue. Turns out if you don't hold your igniter right at the tip of torch head, it won't ignite. If you hold the igniter RIGHT AT THE EXHAUST of the torch head, it'll ignite (see attached picture). Once I figured that out, the torch works beautifully with a small pencil-tipped flame. Just make sure you're igniting it in the right spot.
