Hacksmith has gone pretty hard downhill since they did the powerloader. All their projects now are just making stupid stuff for whoever sponsored them, or upscaling a basic plasma torch and calling it a lightsaber lol.
The heat from the torches was too focused to properly heat the jiffy pop. It’ll just melt the aluminum pan at the focal point. A low/medium heat over the whole area is what cooks them.
@8:30 : Nothing like donning a highly flammable Halloween costume and lighting off a torch during an episode where a running theme has been "Health and Safety"
There are other colour changing lighters available on Amazon that shoot jets of flame and look like lightsabers, which are roughly $30 CAD. What makes this one so special? The salt crystals that last mere minutes? The Hacksmith branding?
The fact that their product came first and these other ones are mostly made by imitators? You can buy a set of airpods for 30$ too, doesn't mean they're gonna be good
Did anyone else's heart skip a few beats in terror when you realized that Linus isn't the safest when hamming it up for the camera? My personal thought was "OH NO! I wonder what he is going to set on fire by accident when trying to intentionally set something on fire."
For those that don't get the reference when Linus says "... the most July 1st thing..." at around 6:30 - July 1 is Canada Day, aka the nation's birthday.
I unironically use it for creme brulee all the time. It's my favorite dessert and they do a great job at caramelizing the sugar, the long blade and the handle makes is pretty ergonomic to use for that.
Pro tip: if the butane is squirting out when you fill it, it means the lighter is full of air. You need to stick a thin metal rod in the fill hole to drain the air. The ifixit screwdriver kit has a bit that fits perfectly.
There is also a 'lock' switch on the top portion, which means you don't actually have to hold down the button to keep the flame on! Although if it is stuck on, you probably don't want to drop it...
"Novelty" is a vast understatement. Absolutely don't see the point, other than there being none. I have a normal lighter in the same form factor and it's all I'd ever need for shrinking heatshrink.
Watching Linus fill the Mini-Saber reminded me when I had 2 fairly high end, which cost more than the Mini-Saber refillable butane lighters. I bought the way to expensive refills the manufacturer recommended, but once the initial fill they came with was gone neither, one work correctly again. Getting them to light too several tries, they wouldn't stay lit for more a couple seconds and would spit still liquid butane. I hope for customers these don't do the same thing.
So the salt changes the flame color is it okay to eat some type of food after cooking with it from my understanding when the fire changes colors burning debris that debris landing on the food whatever the salts made of
Good video in my opinion, interesting concept and good title, regarding the thumbnail… I feel like youtube kept me from watching it. The first time it got recommended to me I saw the thumbnail on which Linus is wearing the Jedi like robe, it got me interested even though im not a super fan of Star Wars, due to time constraints I couldn’t watch it there but then later on it got recommended again with the variant on which Linus is not wearing the robe and it kinda turned me off from wanting to watch the video, it felt like the spice of the image got taken away and it felt like it didn’t give any vibes besides “ok look at this, bye.” It didn’t help either that the multiple other times it got recommended again I never saw the robe and its spice. Now the biggest reason for me to watch this video is to go into the comments and give this useless rant about how I wanted to watch this so much ended up a “It’s 2 am and I can’t find anything to watch” decision. Thanks for wasting your time reading this.
Is it safe to cook food with the color-changing inserts? Like, are you not blasting metal oxides into the food? EDIT: they literally say on the Mini-Saber 2 FAQ page to not use the inserts while cooking food for that exact reason. Why wasn't this clearly mentioned in the video?
Linus is a very particular man. He uses his first generation lighter each day to heat water for his bath. He says it gives the water the perfect amount of warmth for his bathing purposes.

Hi hacksmith
"Any problem you can't solve with fire is a boring problem, don't bother" is my new mindset from now on
pyromaniac way of life
That would make my current exam situation waaaaaay easier
The fire did not overclock my pc . . .
Spoken like a true Pyromaniac :)
"Maybe we can't solve all our problems by throwing them out of a window, but we owe it to ourselves to try."
Nothing can go wrong when playing with fire while wrapped in an extremely flammable cheap Halloween costume.
What does Linus use a lighter like this for on a daily basis..?
Edit: Oh.. candles
only thing I that comes to mind is torch vaping the green ;)
CRACK
or dabs?
Meff
Heroin
Linus: Safety glasses? It’s a lighter…
**proceeds to point lighter at his hand**
Yeah, and safety goggles wouldn't have helped protect his hand at all. So he was correct.
@@tyrannicpuppyI came to exactly say the same thing. Protective glasses wouldn't have helped there 😂

You can make popcorn without oil. Heat the PAN not the kernels lmao.
Oil helps rise the temperature very high and evenly, without oil (or butter) only a few corn will pop
You say that to guy who drop GPU like normal haha
“Hey let’s film this outside during the day when you can’t see the lightsaber.”
Linus in a flowing robe next to a flame got me nervous

Just imagine Luke Skywalker stopping mid fight against Darth Vader to add lighter fluid to his lightsaber. Sounds like an episode of Robot Chicken lol

It's not candles guys, he uses it every day to punish and reprimand Colton
Pushing the sparking mechanism down with a pen fixes any inconsistent ignition with lighters.
"Novelty" is a vast understatement.
Absolutely don't see the point, other than there being none. I have a normal lighter in the same form factor and it's all I'd ever need for shrinking heatshrink.
Don't use the colour changers when roasting food. Also the flame is hot enough to melt aluminum. Searing cooked food is pretty nice.
Showing 50€ lighters so we dont complain about the price of the screwdriver

One of the most fun vids recently!

unscented tea lights, 10000%
