I'm that guy who buys bic lighters all to often and since being in the market for a ill set up (bong ashcather carbon filter etc) i aso found a "healthier" alternative to lighters called a glow rod anybody that could fill me in on the best glowrod how to use them what to heat them with how long they stay hot and how a long strip of glass that you heat how you are abe to hod the other end without singing off your skin from hot glass?? help appreciated
Hey I just picked a glow rod up like a week ago at a local headshop in Oceanside, but they're in most headshops. I use a bernzomatic blow torch to heat it for like 10 seconds and it will burn a whole bowl need be it, great for hash hope this helps, takes trial and error
I've considered getting a glow rod but I'm jsut going to order a hakko eventually. I know the danger is almost the exact same between them but for some reason a soldering iron I can turn on and off compared to using a giant flame to heat up a glass rod seems safer.
