GRILLBLAZER Su-VGun Basic Grill & Culinary Torch - Charcoal Starter - Professional Cooking, Grilling and BBQ Tool - Handheld Blowtorch For Chefs, Men and Women Who Want the Best Tool for the Job

Product Information

To get the propane gas flowing, you turn the red knob to the left and you’ll hear the gas begin to flow. Once you can hear it moving just a little bit, you pull the trigger to ignite and a small blue flame will appear. Like most modern warranties, the warranty will not cover user error or “wear and tear” damage. If you don’t notice a problem soon after unboxing, my best guess (not legal advice) is that you probably won’t be covered.

There are a number of gas flow refinements that are not obvious that make the two substantially different. They all have to do with the desire to implements a cleaner, shorter, hotter flame so it can be used indoors in closer proximity to your meat that you are searing. You simply wouldn't want a 21-inch barrel and a 2-foot flame, searing meat on your kitchen counter. The other models we like include Grillblazer’s other torch, the Grill Gun. And both of Bernzomatic’s popular models, the TS4000 and TS8000. Grill Gun The GrillBlazer Su-VGun is a hand-held flame thrower used by culinary enthusiasts, fellow foodies, and professional chefs to put a gorgeous sear on meat without using a grill.A – The entire sparking mechanism is designed never to fail, so the only thing that might go wrong is that you could get debris in the nozzle from not keeping the Gas Connector out of the dirt when it is disconnected from its fuel source. If this happens, the gas nozzle is replaceable with a servicing kit available at GrillBlazer.com The Su-VGun is shipped with a vinyl cover for the Gas Connector. Grillblazer offers a one-year warranty against defects for the Su-V gun. It’s the sort of thing you probably won’t use, but it’s nice to know it’s there. When turned on, this torch allows you to ignite propane passing through the device and control its burn rate. The spout at the end of the barrel is designed with a baffle, which helps to concentrate the flame. Some people use this torch in combination with a smoker or grill. And, in a pinch, you may be able to employ it for a light welding job. Although I certainly wouldn’t. How Does the SU-V Gun Compare with Other Torches? The Grill Gun is another excellent torch, but it’s really better suited for starting charcoal (or a campfire) than for searing food.

Q – Will it hurt a glass dish if I want to use it to flame a dessert or do I have to use cast iron? The TS8000 is usually priced at about half of the Su-V Gun, but the base model doesn’t include any diffuser baffling. You’d need to add a Searzall attachment, which is only compatible with the TS8000, to achieve the same level of flame efficiency for mitigation against torch taste.The Su-V gun offers 10x the output of your typical gas stove. Because of that, it can do things your other heat sources won’t. Flame Shape Q – If you keep your Su-VGun by your grill, what do you do to light your fireplaces, chimineas, campfires, bonfires, trash burner, camping grill or campfire?
