How long do you have to keep the flame on the score line? NOT WORKING! :(

Boil a pot of water and leave the cut part of the bottle submerged for 1 to 2 minutes. Then just run cold tap water over it. Works a lot easier and faster than the flame. If it does not break when under the cool tap water it usually falls right apart when returned back to the boiling water.

Make sure you put a good amount of fuel in first. After that hold the flame on it for about 10 seconds. If it still doesn't light, check to make sure it's still damp on the inside and try again. Note, that its not going to be a visible flame but you might see it glow orange sometimes and only put what you need for that specific time and don't fill it expecting to use it later or in a couple of days, I tried this and learned quick that its not like there lighters. So soon after filling it, it needs to be lit otherwise it won't light up.

I had the same issue with my friends Storm Dimension it was 8 years old and had 200 or 300 games on it. It doesn't mean it's not working. Did you smell what anything similar to a bowling alley. my kitchen is where I run mine and it smelled like a bowling alley when I ran the Storm Dimension through it. I could not see the oil like my brand new Track LX. I took a look at it every 30 to 40 minutes and I notices small patches of oil on areas of the ball. My guess is the oils was coming out very slowly, giving it time to evaporate from the heat. REMEMBER THIS Device Really A Food dehydrator so, it is not unlikely for it to dry out the oil after it is extracted. I also, believe it depends on the type of cover-stock your ball uses. My Track is like a sponge from my research and will stop hooking after 30 games. When I run that one through it gives me up to a tablespoon of oil in bottom tray and ball is completely greased over. Your Cover Stock is a Hybrid. I am not familiar with that type. if it is designed to soak up oil or not. Also, I ran my friends 200-300 game ball at 165 degrees and rotated it every 45 min on a timer for 4 hours. A difference I see is your ball has Hybrid Cover stock. my Track LX has reactive resin. I would suggest running it a lot longer and at the highest temperature. The best way to tell if it is working is 1. You will smell the oil coming out 2. take it to the lanes and throw it, You will feel the difference if it worked on the ball. BTW the Storm Dimension I just did (4 plus hours) that had over 300 games on it. I just gave it back to him and last night he went spare, spare, and the next 10 in a row for 275. His best game in 4 or years or so. Please let me know how it works out for you.

It burns until it is out of fluid. It has a little plastic measuring cup with a spout that has 2 lines; I think one says 6 hours and one says 12 hours. You put as much fuel in it as you want. It doesn't burn like a flame, it is supposed to burn like an ember. I haven't perfected it yet, but when I did get it working and it burned for multiple hours, I did like it.

Depending on how high the flame is set, at least 3,4 hours, never really timed it...

Hey Mavis,Sorry, but I've never 'timed' it. I just fill the kettle, set my surface burner to a low level, and do something else while I wait for the whistle. Royfill

I actually returned this game and bought one with a backlit screen for my husband, who has been playing handheld solitaire for years. He has never complained about not being able to win. Never heard that one before. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful.

Maybe 10-15 minutes? We always play round after round though. It can be addicting!

We play to 10,000 points with 4 players and it lasts about 15 minutes, longer if a lot of laughter /conversation. It's a fast, fun game and we love it.

It is a timer of sorts. As the game goes along the time will change (manually) when it hits a certain time, the game is over. Think Cinderella! ;)

Make sure you don't turn the flame too low.Also make sure your tank is working properly

We've always played it that after the first person goes out ... everyone else at the table gets 1 more turn to try & unload their points or go out too. Once it gets back to that 1st person that went out the hand is over & you get pointed. Hope this helps! :-)

The game doesnt really change as you still just have 2 teams. The only issue is if people arent paying attention and ready to go when their turn comes up, it can bog the game down a little. Basically add about half an hour to game time you normally would go for

The instructions are pretty good, once you know what they are talking about. It took me several tries. Be sure to hold DOWN the small button/lip under the button you push. After every try it will pop back up, so every time you have to press it back down, and then push in the bigger ignition button. It almost clicks twice when you push it in. Like, 'push...PUSH further....and then bingo! it lights.' It's a safety feature, just hard to describe. Once you do it, you will understand. I really like the window so you can see that yes, there is fuel in there. (You will be so surprised you'll release the ON button, and the flame will go out, and you'll have to do it again) The instructions are pretty good, once you know what they are talking about.

I have no idea. I would think that it should stop when it is not connected. I would go down to the fire dept and ask them. They might come over and have a look. They didfor me when I couldn't figure out how to SOS one t the old one. Good luck.
