Caveat! I bought one of the HF micros a few years
ago. It was great for slow heating (it is after all, a cigar lighter with
"attitude,") but the problem I found with it was that after just a few uses the
butane leaked. I had to fill it each time pre-use for a while. I did that until
the can of butane I had became empty. Then I tossed the lighter. But, for five
bucks its not a bad tool to have around.
On the same note, HF has a propane torch head with
spark ignitor. I had one of them as well. It lasted for about a year before it
literally broke apart at the trigger housing. I used it a lot, perhaps more than
the mfr intended or expected, but for sure the damn thing busted. I'm using a
propane head w/spark ignitor from Ace now. So far so good.
