  • @jc77771 you probably put too much butane in the container. there has to be a good mix of air and fuel (butane) for combustion just wave the bottle around in the air for a bit. I have a vid showing one with pure oxygen, it's crazy how powerful these things are.

  • I made a vid of one with pure oxygen and alcohol and shot it in super slow motion, it made the most beautiful fire cloud and takeoff.

  • I CANT GET THE GAS TO COME OUT
