    Just scored these for $9/box. I think I'm set 
    You really want to be set? Get a weed torch and grill propane tank and ditch those starters. 
    Get a MAPP torch, better control.
    Only a surgeon would worry about control of a fire to light a fire. Even engineers don't sweat that.

    I've noticed your cooks Brent and it appears "control" don't help much. Plus, I'm sure those little hands of yours can't grip something too large. So I get the smaller item.

    Power went out at work today.  Estimation on restoration is Saturday midnight. 

    Supposedly west Michigan had a top 5 in history "wind event" today.  

    Over 200,000 without power. 

    Semis blowing over,  roofs being ripped off schools,  trees falling all over. Power lines falling and starting fires.  .  .

    Poppycock and Balderdash!
    These two unassuming boxes will fit on your shelf with plenty of room for your fishing gear and your weed-whacker.  You won't strain anything picking up a full propane tank.  And the slow, methodical lighting process will give you time to crack open one, maybe even two more beers.  
    You done good, @ColtsFan!

    @kl8ton - dang-that is a serious outage.  Given the swath I hope your house is still on the powered grid.  I may have an indicator based on your above post-hope it holds.  No power is definitely a raw deal-with a winter still in the mix, that much worse.
    Louisville; Rolling smoke in the neighbourhood. # 38 for the win.  Life is too short for light/lite beer!  Seems I'm livin in a transitional period.

    Thanks Matt!  Precision, something foreign to you, especially in your lighting.  Your hands were pretty short and stubby man.  At least mine are long enough to be printed for CC.  They'd need to handprint you.

    Maybe stop focusing on precision of lighting  and more on technique in the kitchen,  you could possibly pull some good vittles off.
