I have used it, very successfully, for extended periods.


Be there all day.


Why?



Torch and propane is the what the external painters use.


Probably because its more convenient that having long leads trailing

Nothing to do with the fact that electricity might not be available at
certain jobs? :-)


Yeah, that as well.
