I purchased one for much less at Ace hardware. It's not nearly as nice
looking but it works. They also carry the butane in what look like
small spray paint cans. One lasts a very long time.
The soldering iron works in wind, but not very well on really cold and
windy days as it could use a bit more heat in those conditions. It
stays like in surprisingly windy conditions but it will blow out.
