Weed burner who has one
I would like to get a weed burner for BBQ and for melting ice...
I know some people swear by harbor freight but what other options are there. I would like one that I can screw the tiny bottle straight into it so I don't have to lug a big tank around Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2 |

Neighbor swears by these, and made in usa. I actually heard the harbor freight ones were just okay, but for 13.99...

most gas camp stoves have an adapter that may work.. might be thinking backwards.

You can buy a small bottle one if you want, but I find that very few people meet my eyes, much less fark with me, when I am carrying around a big tank hooked to a weed burner equipped with a turbo lever.

Using it to melt ice is a good excuse to get one, but I find salt works better and cost a lot less. I have the harbor freight one and it is sufficient, especially for the money. I think a better question would be who here does not own one?

And pretty sure Amazon is cheaper than the company's website.

I've got the big one from HF, and I love it. It'll certainly start a fire quickly. I got the kind with a push button ignitor. I don't actually burn weeds though, and don't get enough cold weather to need to melt ice.

Not a weed burner but a simple torch.
$23 at my local ACE Hardware.  Striker igniter model. It's been working great starting lump and wood chunks. Handy.
