Butane torch thread

[Flotsam]

Further to my previous post, the Sondiko S400 has had a safety recall. I got a message from amazon saying that the device should be returned for a refund. I've only recently picked up the message, however it looks like the recall was at the end of April.
I've recently noted that after filling the torch it seems to work well, however the next day the torch has no gas left. I noticed that after filling with gas and if shaken there was the sound of gas escaping from the filling port.
I found an old kitchen torch in the cupboard that sees to work well, however I'd appreciate any suggestions for a torch that will last without any issues!

i have that torch sitting around as well. If it is leaking by all means replace it.

Unless you have small kids the recall is over the Child proof safety features in the Sondiko which they feel is not strong enough. But in all it just makes the torch harder to use. But i will say the sondiko has a nice touch with the settings. You can see a real low flame similar to the Honest single flame which other larger torches do not do a good job with.
