## Description

Heat Shrink Torch for Large Surface Areas

Review: LOVE THIS THING - I love that the flame is nice and wide. You can use this to sear sous vide steaks much moreso than other torches with a narrower flame. I love that when I hold this upside down the flame does not go out unlike cheaper ones. I also love the button to turn on and off. When you release the button, it turns right off. This thing is expensive for what it is, but worth it.
Review: Good alternative to Sansaire Searing Kit - Believe it or not, I bought this to sear a crust on Sous Vide steaks, not for shrink tubing. The burner itself is the same as the Sansaire Searing Kit, it just has the Bernzomatic branding on it, and does not come with the raised searing rack. As I didn't care about the former, and didn't need the latter, I opted to purchase this for a good deal less than the Sansaire kit. This thing works quite well to put a crust on a sous vide steak in just a few minutes. Plus it has the "cool factor" of finishing your meals with a "flamethrower". For those not familiar of sous vide, it is a method of cooking (usually steaks and other meats) with food sealed in a bag, and kept in a tightly temperature controlled water bath for a period of time. So, a medium rare steak would sit in a water bath for 2 or more hours. At which point, the steak is perfectly cooked consistently to a medium rare doneness. However, from the outside still looks uncooked. Queue the BZ4500HS. The end result is a beautiful, restaurant-quality steak without the restaurant prices. I would highly recommend this torch for anyone looking to step up their cooking game, and it probably works OK for heat shrink too.

## Features

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I like the larger flame.
*by W***N on December 11, 2025*

Much larger flame than the standard model. Just what I needed. Easy Piezo ignition starts every time. Well built and should last a long time.
