do you need a screwdriver in order to open/refill this torch & does it ignite just when you twist the knob or is there a button/trigger starter? thx

No you do not need a screwdriver to refill. To ignite you first turn the gas knob enough for the gas to release then you simply push the button. To turn it off simply turn the gas knob in the opposite direction used to release gas.

No you don't need a screwdriver you just insert the butane nozzle directly into the bottom and fill. Also there is an ignition button. You turn on the gas and hit the ignition button.lights everytime. In my opinion this the best torch you can buy

!) Don't need a screwdriver2) There is a separate trigger for the electronic ignition.

No, it comes with a flint sparker, like you would use for oxyacetylene welding. It works well, you'll just have to get another flint someday when it wears down.

You have to hold the gas control knob in for several minutes, really until you start smelling propane. Then ignite.

You will need a butane refill bottle sold almost anywhere.There is a little valve on the torch that you insert the butane nozzle of the refill bottle into.

When u turn the know for the flame to ignite- hold it In for about 20-30 seconds-the. Let it out and turn flame up-there is a device called a thermocouple that needs to heat up and allow the gas to flow to the burner- just remember to push the knob in and hold it there for that time then turn it up.

It is easy, just click off the "flame lock" click off the "safety" that is located directly below the button, then push the button and it flames. I love mine, on my third gas refill. I would recommend it!

There is no igniter. A $3 lighter is perfect. Wok Ring? Not really. This unit puts out some BTU's, a wok ring would keep it up from the flames. The three sides come right off. You should not need to take them off as the burner area is large. Hope this helps.

Sorry to be so slow answering. We were away for several days and just got in. I think we opened by placing a screw driver in each slot (one under clip, one at one end) simultaneously and twisting carefully. As I recall, the unit opened into two halves. Incidentally, when I tested the battery it was OK so we had a failed unit and had to order a complete replacement opener.

Yes, the torch is easy to refill. I bought it with the butane container suggested on Amazon, and that has a nozzle that fits into an opening on the bottom of the torch. Very easy...There is an adjustment for the flame, and I find it very easy to use. It also has a little lock mechanism below the trigger that you have to release in order to start the torch--a good safety feature.

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

It's very simple just add some butane fuel( I like to use the brand ronsen) once u have added the fuel just pull the hammer back and lighter will ignite at first it might not spark so u might had to click it a few times or use a match or another Lighter to ignite the dusk after that it will work great AMD it also has a flash light on It as well. Both work great just make sure u add the right amount of feu, and do nt over fill!!

With out looking at the lighters everyone is talking about, I can only comment on what 38 years and only having bought 3. The stainless steel screw is threaded and near the bottom of the lighters but attach to the screw is a spring bushing that keeps checking tight on the striking wheel, and that bushing end is brass so that when the flint wears out it will not damage the striker wheel. I hope you enjoy your Zippo's as long as mine, averaged at 18 years before l loose it, and thus replace it.

No. This is a large refill. You need the smaller Bronson butane so it can slide in the piece and connect c t t o the head of that torch. This tank is to big

Never used this type of lighter before, got one, but can't open it by hand (to fill the fuel)... any help please?

It's not that hard to light. The whole bottom round knob is the button. If nothing else, pressing it downward on a flat surface does the same as pressing it with a thumb. When lighting it, there is a black slider that must be pushed up to the "on" position first. Then the flame type slider on the side must be set to "jet". Then pushing in on the bottom will light it. This is all described in the directions of use.

Turn control knob to off, depress knob and turn counter clockwise to ignite, hold for 30 seconds, then turn to pilot

The torch is very easy to refill. All you need is a standard butane refill canister (the kind used to refill butane lighters). You flip the torch upside down and press the butane refill canister to the refill port.The flame is adjustable: not just high/low settings but intermediate settings too.It's really easy to use. I've only used it to brulee sugar on creme brulees, but it seems like it would work on anything.
