What Makes This Grateful Dead Torch Stand Out?
Besides the iconic branding, this torch has smart features for daily dabbers. It is built to perform well, from its flame power to its safety features.
How Powerful Is The Torch Flame?
This torch has a powerful, single jet flame that is wind-resistant. The focused heat is perfect for heating quartz bangers in just 30-60 seconds. A single flame provides a nice balance of power and precision, unlike dual-flame torches that can overheat smaller bangers.
Does The Grateful Dead Torch Have A Safety Lock?
Yes, safety is a key part of its design. The torch has a child-resistant safety lock to stop it from lighting by accident. This feature is important for safe storage and handling. Always engage the lock after each session.

How To Use And Maintain Your Torch
Correct use and care will keep your Grateful Dead Thrust Torch working right. Here are the key steps for refilling the tank and heating your banger.
What Are The Steps To Refill The Butane Tank?
Refilling your torch is easy. We suggest using a high-quality, filtered butane to keep the jets from clogging. Always refill in a well-ventilated space, far from any open flames.
- Make sure the torch's flame adjuster is set to the minimum (-) setting and the safety lock is engaged.
- Hold the torch upside down. Use a small tool to press the refill valve to bleed any trapped air until the hissing stops.
- Take your butane can and press the nozzle firmly into the torch's refill valve.
- Hold for 5-10 seconds, or until you hear the hissing stop and see a small amount of liquid spray out. This shows the tank is full. Do not overfill.
- Wait 3-5 minutes for the gas to settle and reach room temperature before you try to light the torch.
- Test the torch, starting with a low flame setting and adjusting as needed.
How Long Should I Heat A Quartz Banger?
Heating time depends on your banger's thickness and how hot you want it. As a general guide, aim the flame at the bottom of the banger and heat for 30-60 seconds. After heating, let the banger cool for 45-70 seconds before dabbing. This helps stop scorching and saves flavor.
- Always bleed trapped air from the tank before refilling.
- Use premium, filtered butane to prevent clogging the jet.
- Wait 3-5 minutes after refilling before you ignite the torch.
- Heat quartz bangers for 30-60 seconds and allow adequate cooling time.
