Good automatic plumbers gas torch?

[MattLaw]

Hi there,

I need to buy a new gas torch, one that is automatic (i.e. turns off when trigger is released).

I've heard that you can get ones where the tip of the burner doesn't get hot? If you know what I mean can you point me in the right direction?

Is there anywhere online I can see these or is it best just to pop over to the Plumbcentre when I get chance?

Cheers
Matt

I've now found a Rothenberger auto torch that I'm buying.

Thanks anyway.

I recently purchased a TS7000 from B&Q £35 ish. Really good torch, plus you can use MAPP as well as propane.

Bernzomayic are now part of the Irwin tools, so there shouldn't be a problem with quality.
