It says "with torch" but no explanation of what the torch is for or does???

"torch" is a British term for a flashlight. The device includes an amber LED to illuminate the object you are sticking the thermal probe into.

The on/off switch is a square, flat button, which is flush with the surface of the torch, on one of the long sides of the torch near the bottom. When mounted on the wall, the button is about an inch away from the wall surface on the top side of the torch that angles away from the wall, if that makes sense. You just push it once for "on," then push again for "off." It is easy to access when the torch is on the wall. In the picture I see here on Amazon, with a person's hand holding the torch, picture the button being under that person's palm on the side of the torch. Hope that helps!

It depends upon what you are going to do with it. How long a burn? How long can you physically hold in the trigger. When you release the trigger, the flame stops. For me, I expect the tank life to be twice as long as my old torch. The reason is that I would use the old one and set it down lit. So, it would be burning; but, not being used on task. The 8000 trigger shuts off the gas. Thus, it saves a lot of gas for me. Also, you can adjust the volume of gas with the tank valve. I do not run it wide-open. So, my tank will last a long time. I expect this tank of gas to last at least 2-3 years!

I've been unable to figure out WHAT the hell it does, or is supposed to do!

If it is what I think you're describing, it's the air inlet port. under it a1/4 to 5/16 bolt screws in to adjust the flame. After lighting for the first time screw the bolt in or out to get the correct flame. you want no yellow in the flame, just blue and a bit of white tip.light outside for the first time in case I'm wrong!

Here's a link to the instruction manual:http://meyer.custhelp.com/ci/fattach/get/4259/0/filename/Creme+Brulee+Torch+UC.pdf(I know this question was from last year, but possibly others might have the same question.)

I'm not sure EXACTLY what it's for but the "Scallops" around the top of the lens assembly are what they are referring to. I have several Maglites and many times in the course of a task I will set the Lite down on the face to use both hands and if the Lite is ON you can see that from the "Scallops" on the side, reminding you to switch it off and save your batteries.

no. For torch use there is a knob that rotates the LED bulb assembly so it can be used as a flashlight (the flashlight lens is the bulb you see on top)

The fuel gauge is a simple sight glass. You can see the fuel level through the window.The torch does not come w/ fuel (they can't ship it with fuel because of the hazard). You have to buy a can of butane and fill the torch yourself. It's all very simple.regards,

There is no need to use a lighter. The ring is NOT meant to ignite the heater!This heater ignites when you turn the temp / gas valve ALL THE WAY open. It will click then.Ignore the ring on the side of the heater. I have never used it at all! (I believe it is some kind of primer, but it is entirely unneccecery. Turn the heat knob all the way up and keep clicking that until it lights. If you wait about half a second while it is on high before clikcing the igniter (by turning it farther) it should light instantly. Don't leave it on without igniting it of course, it will puff and flame up when it does ignite if you do. There is no need to use a lighter.

Just unscrew the bottom of the torch. Where the button ON/OFF stands. Can seem hard some times. It's not.

There is a push button on the back end of the torch. It also has a toggle switch to control the heat of the flame.

Don't do it. This is for large work. You can find small craft torches elsewhere.

First of all there is a safety switch right below the button, you have to move the switch to the left. The switch will stay in that position, then press the button ( this button is the ignition button ) . If the torch ignites the button will snap back to the right position. Also make sure your torch has fuel in it. I have never had a speck of trouble with mine, it is the best torch I ever owned and I have had several. Jack

I couldn't figure it out either. I'm gonna contact the seller. Hopefully that will help. I'll let you know if I find out how to use it.

the torch that came with the one I got had two extra lines going in and out of the TIG torch I don't know if you can use water threw that but you can hook up air to it to cool it. I run it without anything on it though and it's been working fine for me.

Perhaps your striker is malfunctioning? Do you smell gas when you open the valve? If so, then you have good gas flow but the striker may not be working. In which case, use a match or a lighter to light the torch. Be sure to light the match/lighter BEFORE you turn on the gas flow. If you don't want to do that, contact Blazer and tell them that your torch is defective. If they're worth any salt, they should send you a replacement.
