Description
The SOTO Pocket Torch Extended (STPT‑XT) is a compact, high‑performance butane torch lighter engineered for outdoor adventurers, home craftsmen, and cooking enthusiasts alike. With electronic ignition, a wind‑resistant burner, and a telescoping head, it’s designed to light reliably in challenging conditions. The flame can reach temperatures of up to 1,300 °C (approx. 2,300 °F), enabling tasks from firestarting and grill lighting, to searing, soldering, or rope cutting. At only ~50 g and with dimensions collapsing to ~11 cm (extending to ~18.5 cm), it’s a perfect lightweight tool to include in camping, emergency, or workshop kits.
