torch lighter

Common constructions use metal bodies or stainless steel, aluminum-alloy flame tubes, and in some models plastic handles or grip areas for comfort.

Sizes vary by model; the listed lengths range from about 2.76 inches up to 7.5 inches, and weights across the items range from roughly 0.1 pounds to about 4.8 pounds.

Many torches offer adjustable flame control and anti-flare features; listed specifications include flame-tube heat resistance up to 1300°F and high-output model flame temperatures up to 2,372°F.

Electric arc/plasma lighters are flameless and windproof, described as weatherproof for outdoor conditions, and are USB-rechargeable for repeated ignitions without fuel.

Culinary torches commonly include safety locks, adjustable flame control, electronic or piezo ignition systems, heat-resistant construction, and a compact, comfortable shape for handling during food preparation.
