Need alternative to alcohol lamp!
    #23668338 - 09/22/16 02:47 PM (7 years, 5 months ago)

I've been using a wickless alcohol lamp for the last month or so with no problems, but now the burner is leaking like crazy and it's not safe to use.  It started leaking suddenly today while I was doing some transfers and the whole top caught on fire!  Scared the shit out of me!  Luckily I had some water nearby just in case, but if not I would have had a really bad day.

I've been burning 100% denatured ethanol and using the tool like it's supposed to be used, it's just a pos apparently.

I need something that burns clean and is a little safer?

Many people use small propane torches.

I wonder why your lamp broke?

That right there. I use the wider green propane bottles so its more stable. Ive never wanted anything else since the first time I used that.

The torch at your local hardware shop, they probably have the propane bottle too.

I use a Vector Mini Nitro butane torch. Fucker gets hot enough to solder copper pipes. It's an awesome torch.

Huh don't know why I never thought of a butane torch. I always put veggie oil in a whisky glass with rolled up paper towels soaked in the oil as a wick. but one of my butane torches seems so much simpler!
