Small butane torch refilling.

[YouraTParticipant @yourat]

So I’m clearly doing something wrong, because I can’t work out how to refill this little Butane hand torch.

I have a can of Butane and some adaptor nozzles:

but none seem to do the right thing – the little refill tube on the torch leaks gas from around its base when pushed in, and the screwdriver slots around the aperture would appear to prevent a seal in any case.

What am I missing (figuratively or physically)?

[peak4Participant @peak4]

The similar ones I have don’t use the little orange adaptors, just the tube straight out of the bulk refill.
Yes is does vent around the base, so as soon as liquid butane emerges, stop filling.
Yours may of course be faulty.
