weed burner btu

what is a good btu to shoot for to light lump? I see pics of a monstrous torch. I do not want a fireball, merely a fire to start my lump. I was considering this as an option to the map torch so I could have my arms a little further away from the flame. I bought a looftlighter but will return it. I hate having to track down and unreel an extension cord, hold the lighter 1-2 min all the while blowing ash in the air. It's just not as convenient as I like.

my weed burner is 500,000 btu's. you light the torch and can adjust the flame with the dial, you dont have to pull the trigger and hit it with all of the 500,000 btu's. its the cheap version from harbor frieght, mines gotta be coming up on 10 years old now

The two on the bottom work just fine.
