How about hooking up other brand torches, any problems there, do you have to change out fittings?

Other torches can be used with the PowerTig. You need to get the correct connector which is available from a number of vendors. Finding the correct gas connector is slightly harder. Other option for the gas is to get a torch that has the valve on the torch head. This will permit you to turn on and off the shielding gas.

You can use other brand torches. You may have to change some fittings, but it is no big deal. I guess you are thinking about purchasing one of these machines? The machine works great. The cooling fan is a little loud, but a lot of welder for the money.

Search YouTube for "Everlast and C-K Worldwide Tig Torches" or call Everlast. Yes, it can be done and it's not hard...

The quick coupler they use is not normal from what I found at the local welding shop. I had to get creative to hook up my new ck torch.

Possibly. Look at the dark grey / black end of your current ignitor, if there is a break in the element, then it should be replaced.

Lowes has all the fittings and adaptors you need.You must be in a propane served area.

Probably will not have to change anything. If you have the right halogen fixtures they should be good to go.

The poles come in sections and screw together. You can adjust the height by leaving a section out. I had problems with my poles as the screw ends (inserts) weren't machined very well making it time consuming to put them together. What should have taken only minutes to install took about an hour to assemble two torches. Some of the threads were so tight I can't even unscrew some sections. Another issue was getting the fuel caps off. Threads were dirty from machine work. Tried to get the greasy grim off with acetone, however it started to remove the finish, so use a lighter solvent if you have this issue. Other then that the lamps are nice

Unplug the mig torch lead. Measure the OD of end block that fits into the welder. post it and I will check for you.

I replaced a wick by trimming a zippo wick. I also trimmed a zippo flint to fit for my true utility firestash keyring lighter

There's a fitting on the bottom of the torch that fits the butane. Turn the torch upside down, fit the butane dispenser to the fitting, and push. Very simple.

Have you checked all the connections to make sure they are tight? My husband loves his light and luckily no problems. If we had a problem we couldn't fix would have a lighting shop check it out, since we like it so much. Sorry I can't help.

I didn't have that problem with my lamp. It was identical to the old one. But if I was running into that problem I would try to get those screws out from the old one. If that doesn't work try lowes to find same threaded thickness screws and rig it up. I'm curious as to why the old lamp has different screws if it is infact the same model.

I went out and looked at my connection, and had to laugh. I now remember the pain. My line from the utility is a female quick connect. My line from the grill was way larger, and there are about 5 brass fittings in between to get it to downsize and result in a male/ female proper interconnect. It's not rocket science, but takes some thought. For some reason, I think this is complicated between British (Weber) and U.S. normal configs. Again, a good store that sells grills and a picture and measurement of your two starting ends (grill and gas connection) will help.

No problem lighting heater. Hold button down for about 10 seconds, release and depress button again. Residual gas from first press should help firing it right up.

I'm not sure!!!! make sure you have the screw at the bottom for the torch turn to the max.

I bought a similar one from Home Depot and then swapped fittings. Needed to get some adapters in their fitting isle as well to make it work.

I apologize but I have to ask the obvious just to rule it out - did you refill the tank completely and did you use the same brand of butane? I had a lot of trouble with my torch when I switched butane brands without first draining my tank. If so, I recommend contacting Blazer through their website. They are quick to respond and very helpful.

It will have much lower current draw, be brighter and fit. Bulb life is also in the thousands of hours. One of my best changes.
