My Campingaz TH2000PZ Piezo Ignition Blowlamp just failed in spectacular fashion (the connector parted company with the plastic base of the body and dumped all the gas at once while lit…. that was a fun few seconds).
I use my sievert propane burner for anything big, I tend to just use this one for silver soldering boiler fittings etc. I don't want to drag the big bottle out every time so like the convenience of the built in bottle you get with a traditional style gas blowlamp.
Does anyone have a recommendation for a good quality gas blowlamp that will last? I have quite a few of the screw thread canisters used by the Campingaz unit (GoSystem branded) so would like to retain that bottle type. I think its fairly standard anyway.
Every unit I've found looks like plastic junk, as seen on some of the more terrifying photos on amazon reviews of melted blowlamps sat on scorched earth! A built in Piezo starter is nice but not essential.
I don't fancy going back to paraffin but they did seem better made….
