The product, in the report: Tengyes Blow Lighter Kitchen Butane Culinary Torch
I was using this piece that I purchased in Amazon: Tengyes Blow Lighter Kitchen Butane Culinary Torch. And the blowtorch caught fire around the regulator. I had to throw it to the floor and the butane can exploded. I suffered serious burns in my legs from my thighs to my ankles. I was in the hospital for 24 days and it is a miracle that I am alive. The torch is defective. I have evidence to proof all that I am saying.
