Product Description
The Blazer GB4105 touch-activated, butane gas burner is a tabletop, refillable burner that creates a precise flame emitting from a nozzle head, allowing direct heat application to an object. It is commonly used for detailed purposes such as brazing, plumbing, soldering, heating, jewelry making, culinary, dental and lab applications, and work that requires a traditional Bunsen burner.
This tabletop burner has a touch-activated pad for ease of use. Rest your hand on the touch-sensitive pad to ignite the burner, and remove your hand to extinguish the flame and turn the unit off. It features a flame adjustment dial, for precise control of flame length, width, and heat, within its Fahrenheit range. It can be set from a yellow, soft, cooler flame (1,472 degrees F) to a more precise, hot, blue flame (2,370 degrees F). It has a dual-use locking mechanism that either locks the flame on for continuous use, or off for safety.
The burner houses a piezoelectric ignition system, which is based on a pressurized molecular reaction, and requires no electric connection. Piezoelectric energy occurs when the trigger is activated, releasing a small, spring-loaded internal hammer that strikes a crystal, producing a spark and resulting in gas flame ignition.
With a maximum flame temperature of 2,370 degrees F (1,300 degrees C), the burner has a continuous burn time of approximately 65 minutes (varies with flame temperature), and has a 10-gram gas capacity. It measures 5.6 (l) x 2.6 (w) x 5.5 (h) inches and weighs 11.2 ounces. This product is intended strictly for use in professional and industrial environments. In accordance with federal regulations, home use of this product is prohibited.
Since 1985, Blazer Products has created an array of professional and industrial tools and equipment. Located in Farmingdale, NY, the company manufactures a variety of torches and ultrasonic cleaners. Blazer Products is known worldwide for its original micro torch products.
The GB4105 burner comes with one AA battery and a drip tray, and operates with a standard butane canister (sold separately).

Didn't last long enough
By Mark McGinty
This is a useful item, except that for its price mine didn't last long enough, and I never got around to sending it back. Its electronic igniter quit working after about 6 months of moderate to heavy usage. It's easier to let it spark continuously while using it than not, the mechanical fuel valve and the switch that operates the igniter are actuated by the same pad, so after it lights you have to ease up on the pad a little. Some people in my shop had difficulty keeping the gas on but the igniter off at the same time.
The only other problem was with the flame adjustment, we found that some settings prevented it from lighting, so we had to adjust it back to an almost blue flame to light it, and then dial it to the desired heat once lit. This rather defeated the instant-on-at-the-desired-heat-setting scenario we had envisioned.
