First things first, this item does not come with butane fuel so plan on buying some separately to be able to use it. Once filled up I had no issues with operation. The torch is pretty large at almost 8 inches, and set to high will create a flame about five inches long. It definitely gives off a Star Wars lightsaber vibe and the red flame is a novel touch. It’s not very practical for productivity purposes (almost any other torch would be easier to use for work) but as a conversation piece it’s pretty fun.

I am just glad that it works at all! And it Does. Longevity is something else: Seems weaker after 100 💯 lights 🔥 more or less….The only other problem is it’s a little too small. On the other hand, it’s nice that it’s so small. Actually it’s amazing it works as well as it does being as small as it is.One thing to be aware of, you have to close the cover and press the push button to open the cover again in order to reset the electronica starter for the burner if you want to use it more than once or twice. However if you want to use it multiple times in a row it’s OK within like 10 seconds. After that it goes out it goes dark. It’s still functional, but you have to reset it by pressing the push button and re-open the cover after 10 seconds. So, another words you have to close the cover and then re-open it again after 10 seconds; otherwise, it goes Dark, but that’s when the flashlight works. And that’s it. I don’t know how many times you can light on a charge but I imagine it’s quite a few because it doesn’t seem to use any electricity at all! So, it may very well be the 300 times they advertise.I lit 🔥 the candle in the photo with a coffee stirrer which is in front of the lighter in the picture; It took several tries because the coffee stirrer is a bit bulky, but it lights; it really works!I may need to get you probably have to do it a couple of times three times in a row and act in and go over a wider area to get the flame to start but I am the point of the Lenix it’s hot enough to burn wood. That’s the best way I can state it. I would buy one; In fact a boy more than one would make great gifts they come with the latter would Leonard and was a recharge UCB USB Dash C and the flashlight works as advertised. The only other thing I could say about the flashlight is it’s a bit broad you can’t focus it but it works fine it and it’s very bright. It works fine for what it does do you have two different levels in a strobe light-end-great for dancing!

Looks great
