yeah
The white one, on the other hand, does not say that.
A one-year warranty is included with the Big Buddy Turbo Torches.
Perhaps you just got a bad one, but I'm not sure. The torch is a great buy, so get a replacement if you can.
Selected User Reviews For Blazer 189-8021P Blazer Big Buddy Turbo Torch, Pink
Torch is incredible, and this was a ridiculously low price when compared to other options! I originally ordered a red one, which worked but had a faulty gas regulator, so it was stuck on MAX setting, which if you've used this torch before, is like a flame flower dead serious. My amazing seller had a replacement shipped out to me within 24 hours of my return hitting the post office, and I received the green the next day! (Out of red due to Covid's short supply chain; however, I prefer the green in the end! THIS IS THE DADDY FOR DABBING ON THE MAC! Everything else pales in comparison to the Blazer Big Buddy and the GT 8000 or whatever the other one is called; however, this is significantly less expensive and more than adequate for dabbing and other domestic purposes. Unless you're doing something really big, the next level is overkill. Lol.
I like the flame, but I'm already having problems with the ignition not working at times, and I had to tighten the bottom screw, and the body and head still wiggle a little. I really wish I had gotten the Big Shot instead. br>UPDATE basecracked, took the bottom off to fill it, very cheap. I WILL NOT RECOMMEND OR BUY FROM THIS COMPANY AGAIN.
This torch broke 100% and stopped working 6 months after purchase, so I sent it in for repair, but they said it was too damaged and they couldn not fix it. It is not recommended for anyone. The following is the original review. br>br>I used this torch a lot for 4 months before I had an issue with it. Every time the torch is used, the plastic piece beneath the fire button is used to keep it from being accidentally activated. As a result, it gets a lot of play. It can break off, in which case you'll need to reach in and push down the locking mechanism with a small flat head screw driver. br>With the exception of this flaw, the torch continues to function properly and has a large capacity.
Holding the lighter in one hand and filling it with the other is a natural way to refill this unit. Unfortunately, you're holding it by the sleeve, and the assembly is held together by a single tiny screw on the base. My first base lasted several months, but the replacement broke the first time I forgot to set the lighter on the table or cup it in my hand so that no pressure was applied to the base. With the lighter, they should include a number of substitutes. It's an obvious flaw in the design.
BLAZER is usually the first thing that comes to mind. When it comes to torches, it's best to stick to the basics. I have a variety of models for various purposes. This model, on the other hand, falls short of expectations. The ignitor must be activated several times before the flame will ignite, and the steady on switch is rarely used.
This is a subject about which I could go on and on. It's not good at all. The issue of security. SAFETY LOCKS ARE NOT REQUIRED FOR DABBERS. What the hell is going on with the safety issue? It's completely useless. Anyone who does not want to be safe does not dabs. The torch is not going to be lit by kids. They won't be able to do anything unless you allow it. br>The slide adjustment is also a complete waste of time. It isn't even functional. AT ALL. The torch works fine when lit on the lowest setting; however. When you move the adjustment a fraction of an inch, the torch becomes useless. It does not maintain its illumination. br>At the same time, the torch is loosening. The connection between the body and the head has been broken. It's just a screw that needs to be tightened, but it took two days of dabbing to find out. br>It's time to go over the safety switches once more. I'm mentioning it twice because there are two of them: one is OFF/CONTINUOUS and the other is a slide safety. They're both difficult to use. Because I've been an ironworker for 20 years, I'm comfortable with it. And you can count on me to break this thing in a week. But if you're anyone else, it'll be difficult because you'll have to jam your thumb in there and push it down at the same time. That's a tough one.
So. The CHILD LOCKbr> finally ignites after you defeat the ON/OFF SWITCHbr> battle. br>It then turns off. br>I attempted to return this item but was unable to. As a result, I'm going to keep using it until it breaks. I'm hoping BLAZER can assist me. I was taken advantage of because I was cheated.
So, I guess this review is aimed at potential and current Blazer product purchasers. Back in September, I bought the blazer, and it was and still is in excellent condition. When it came time to refill the blazer buddy, however, I noticed that the bottom plastic was a little tight when attempting to remove it from the base. I used to be able to get around it by twisting or wiggling the torch, but the bottom part finally snapped and came off this time. When this happens, the torch itself can easily break free from its steel casing. Unless you're holding the torch perfectly upright, the main torch can easily slip out and fall, potentially breaking. I've duct taped the bottom plastic (as seen in the photo) and it appears to be working, but it's not a long-term fix, and I'll have to replace it eventually. I was hoping to find the bottom piece separately, but I haven't had any luck so far. br>I'll be buying another blazer, these torches are fantastic. I'll just make the base a little looser next time.
We bought this to use in the kitchen and to light our wood stove after returning a similar but less expensive torch from another brand, and we absolutely love it! Every time, it lights up with a large, powerful flame. It also appears to make good use of butane - We've been pleasantly surprised at how rarely we've had to refill it. This torch is without a doubt recommended. (At Walmart, you can get butane refills. ) On Amazon, they're way too pricey. ).
