This post is sponsored by The Home Depot. I received the Bernzomatic Magfire+ 500,00 BTU Outdoor Torch a little while ago at this branch of Home-Fixated to try around the farm. It’s a propane powered torch that delivers up to 500,000 BTU’s of concentrated flame where ever you desire. It’s a mini flamethrower, not quite enough to make Elon Musk jealous, but close.

This torch will connect to any POL style propane tank (BBQ Tank). It is recommended that you use the torch with a minimum of a 20 pound cylinder. Read More
