LPT-500PRO-TORCH™
Automatic Ignition System Heavy Duty butane powered torch provides the most powerful and stable flame. Flame temperature reaces 2500°F. 200 minutes of nonstop burning on minimum setting.

I dont intend to do much brazing but a bit of tube work for the rover (rock sliders, ladder, front brush guard and some light guards) and a bit for the gwagon (rock sliders, maybe roof rack). other than that I can't imagine doing any further brazing so for $50 seems like a good deal but dont know if its up to the task. product description says its for brazing.

comments?

Go to Lowes, Home Depot, ANY local hardware store and pick up a MAPP Gas bottle with torch.

I bought my Bernzomatic mapp torch at Walmart. It reaches 3000 degrees. I've built 13 tubers on 5 bottles of gas.

He has freebie like gift cards from Amazon thats why he was asking. Maybe they can ship the torch but not the gas and you can buy it separate.

I bought that torch at OSH for 37 bucks a couple days ago
