Anyone who already used this sort of torch?

We want to buy a set of three. Seems not easy to add solder

Hello Peter

Our factories use similar torches quite a lot in fabricating the refrigeration circuits, especially the coils. Apparently they get more uniform heating of the joint, which makes manufacturing quicker and leads to fewer mistakes. We saw them on a training video some time ago, and some of the guys were very impressed. But I don't think anyone's tried them in the field, so can't say how useful they'd be out there. The ones I saw had 2 nozzles, so plenty of room to get in there with the rod.
If you do try one, I'd be very interested to hear of your opinion.

the one with two nozzles is better. I have used it before. it saves time, not comfortable in tight places, consumes twice the amount of gas.

I'd go with a cap-3 or a cap-2, personally.
