The product is very userfrindly

Perfekt

La torche fonctionne à merveille. J'ai mis du temps à recevoir la torche à cause d'un transporteur DHL défaillant. Bon contact avec le service commercial qui a fait tout son possible pour rattraper la situation.

I needed a new torch tip as I was using a pencil tip with mixed results and high effort. I considered getting a turbo-torch tx4 but the price was 2-3 times as much as this tip with the same features. Straight out of the box the body seems to be made of solid aluminum and the quality is good, especially the tip. Unit has some heft to it. Using the torch I noticed the amount of heat this torch puts out with MAP gas is astounding. It would not surprise me if you could braze 3/8-7/8ths copper with this if you did not have a air or oxy/acetylene torch. Very impressive, 3/4" soldering can be done within seconds of heating the fitting/pipe. This is an excellent tool. It heats the fittings so fast that you will need to turn the heat down with the handy adjustable output knob. I was also pleased by the ignition speed and reliability, it lights fast and almost every time. Pros: - Excellent value - Good build quality - Adjustment knob - Locking button for the flame to stay lit Some cons: - Weight, this item is kind of heavy, makes the small MAP tanks abit tipsy if you sent them down momentarily - Yellow ignition button is gonna get filthy really fast if you use gloves soldering, minor but notable. - Overkill for light duty work. I would recommend a pencil tip for light duty work, which is cheaper and spreads heat slower. easier to learn with.

Vale lo que cuesta, luego luego se nota la calidad. Su encendido por chispa es muy cómodo. También lo es el gatillo con seguro para dejar abierta la flama y el apagado con un solo toque; pero la característica que me es más útil es la de que esta boquilla funciona el posición invertida, esto me permite soldar tranquilamente conectores de tubería de cobre que están por debajo del nivel del piso, cosa que antes se me complicaba mucho porque el resto de las boquillas que usé, en esa posición funcionaban un par de segundos y se apagaba la llama. Era lo que me faltaba para estar preparado para cualquier tipo de arreglo de tubería de cobre.
