Skye,
I can't comment on the little butane rigs but I've got two different propane
and an oxy-propane rig, but my favourite for quick and dirty heat for small
jobs is a "Bernz-O-matic" MAPP gas torch. They're only slightly more than
propane but produce lots more heat. I bought mine at Revy for (I think)
about $25. Refills naturally are cheaper...
Cheers,
