I have not used this one a lot yet, but did like the other one that Cree makes with the pack on back of strap they are rated the same for brightness i just like the other one due to front battery pack on this one was tough to change batt in but safe ??? not sure what you are going to use it for its not sealed or hasmat safe for gas or flammable liquids use, being a retired F/F you just opened Pandora box by not saying what your thinking gas safe ??????? safe for normal use !!

Hi, Do you mean "intrinsically" safe ? In two way radio this means a radio is rated to work in hazardous environments. If you're asking about this rating: nothing in the small sheet of instructions indicated that it was. Since it it not mentioned and based on the price I would say it is NOT. Best, Sean

No it is not intrinsically safe, but relatively speaking it is a low risk light due to the typical features inherent in it, with the exception that if it falls to the ground the metal itself could cause a spark so basically, no metal light is intrinsically safe and beyond that any with standard switch can arc but the power available is very low at 4.5V and under.If these things are important to you then do not ask if light X or Y is intrinsically safe because it is a primary selling feature that will be prominently displayed so you don't have to wonder. And it will cost much more.

Kristina K if you expect a light to be safe in an explosive situation...pay more for the light. Battery box isn't sealed to keep out explosive gas...as well as the switch isn't safe in explosive situations. $3.86 isn't OSHA approved light for explosive gas environments.

yes no safety issues. not a good idea to shine in the eyes as it is very bright. I have bough 4 or 5 of these and apart from the battery is bit hard to get in due to the clasp it is a great buy...Batteries seem to last a long timetoo.

The torch appears to be water resistant. Once the battery has been installed and the torch is closed, there does not seem to be a great danger of wetting the internal circuitry. Even so, I would not attempt to use this product as an underwater torch. For that role it would need to be more than water resistant, it would need to be water proof. There is a lack of product information delivered with the torch, but I would not I am still pleased with the torch and I do not fear taking it into the rain.

No I would not consider this safe to be fire proof. I do use the safe daily and sure like it.

It supposed to be safe in a fire---for exact temperature --you will have to check the specs for the item.

Yes, it is safe. I bought it for emergency heat but haven't used it much, thank goodness. So far so good!

Yes. Just don't 'shock' it by getting it too hot too fast or cooling it down too fast. I always pull a suply of coals out of the main fire to cook on with no problems.

No, torch fuel is made from naphtha which is much lighter than kerosene and would likely burn out the lantern.

The manufacture does not state. I have 3 of them. I am thinking in a small fire you might be ok for a little while, as it is steel. In a raging inferno...not so sure. Good value for the money, but a few out there for a couple bucks more better investment.

No, it is too dangerous to leave on constantly. You must use it responsibly and follow the directions.

The trigger allows the gas to flow; so, my guess would be yes you could in a pinch. I strongly agree with Kieth. Don't use a malfunctioning torch! Also, you could call Bernz O Matic at 1-800-654-9011 and ask them.

I'm sure it is safe. I returned my heater, but it was due to it being loud, although it is advertised as being quiet. The performance (heating) was good.

Yes it is. Itll take some time. A lighter works just fine as well without burning it if you keep the flame moving.

I would not buy this product I is not safe. It is made of metal and will burn whomever is using it. It is far to heavy to hold with one hand. It has to be balanced with your other hand yet.

I wouldn't count on it lasting through a house fire or someone with a blow torch. I've never tested it myself and I don't think the manufacturer claims that it is fire proof.

I can't speak to the safety issue, but the quality of this stove is excellent. It is very well made and should last a long time if taken care of properly.
