8″ MAVEN MODEL T TORCH

The 8″ Maven Model T Torch is a table-top, refillable butane torch built for dabbers and kitchen nerds who want real control instead of fighting a tiny pocket flame. At 8 inches (203mm) tall with an angled head, it gives you serious reach and precision without feeling bulky. You’re getting a single, focused, windproof jet flame that’s strong enough for rigs or crème brûlée, plus safety features that actually make it chill to keep on the counter.

What You Get Out of It

• Dial in your flame for any task — Adjustable output lets you go from gentle craft work to ripping hot heat for glass in a few clicks.
• Comfortable angles, less wrist strain — Rotatable head means you can keep your hand in a natural position while the flame points exactly where you want it.
• Stays lit in real-world conditions — Single windproof jet flame keeps going even when the patio or garage door is open and the breeze is acting up.
• Safer to leave on the table — Built-in safety lock and ignition hold help prevent accidental lights and keep things controlled during longer tasks.
• Built to be your daily torch — Refillable with butane and made from zinc alloy and metal, so it feels solid in the hand instead of like a disposable toy.
• Looks like gear, not clutter — Clean metallic finish and color options that actually match a setup, whether it’s your rig station or kitchen bench.

Best For

The Maven Model T is made for dabbers who are running regular seshes and want a reliable, table-top style torch that doesn’t eat up the whole coffee table. It’s also a great fit for people who bounce between food and flower — caramelizing sugar one minute and heating a banger the next — and want one clean, adjustable flame for both. If you’re already building out a full rig station with a proper dab mat, this torch slots right in as your permanent heat source.

How to Use It

The basics are simple: fill the Maven Model T with standard butane, set your flame height, adjust the head angle, and you’re ready to heat what needs heating. The angled head is especially nice when you want to keep the torch upright on the table while pointing the flame at a banger, nail, or even a kitchen dish.

Use the safety lock to make sure it doesn’t accidentally ignite when you’re moving it or passing it to a friend. When you are working longer — like heating thicker glass or working on a dessert — the ignition hold can keep the flame going so you don’t have to keep your finger squeezed the whole time. Once you’re done, let everything cool down, then stash your gear or move your cooled extracts back into their concentrate jars or other containers.

For dabbers running silicone or hybrid setups, the torch plays especially well with sturdy gear like silicone bongs and rigs that can chill on the table while you work the flame. Just keep the torch vertical when refilling and storing, and give it a second after ignition to settle into a consistent jet flame before you bring it near glass or food.

Care & Tips

Only refill with clean butane and make sure the torch is completely off and cool before you do it. If the body picks up fingerprints, oils, or dab dust, just wipe the outside down with a soft cloth. When not in use, keep the safety lock on and store it upright in a drawer or with the rest of your smoke shop gear so it’s not rolling around loose in a backpack or toolbox.

FAQ

• Does the 8″ Maven Model T come filled with butane?

  No, like most refillable torches it ships empty. You’ll need a can of standard butane to fill it before the first use. Once it’s filled, you adjust the flame to your preference and you’re good to go.

• How do I refill the torch safely?

  Make sure the torch is turned off, locked, and completely cool. Flip it upside down, press the butane canister nozzle straight into the refill valve, and hold it in place for a few seconds. Let it rest upright for a bit so the gas settles before you ignite again.

• Is the angle adjustment actually useful for dabs?

  Yes — the rotatable head lets you keep the base flat on the table while aiming the flame exactly at your banger or nail. That’s way easier on your wrist during longer heats and feels more stable, especially if you’re working over glass on a slick surface or a padded work area like an accessory mat.

• Will this work for both dabbing and cooking?

  Definitely. The windproof jet flame and adjustable output make it versatile enough to live in the kitchen and at the dab station. Just be mindful of cross-use — if you’re picky about food flavors, you may want a separate torch for heavy dab duty and use this one where you need it most.

• Is it too big to travel with?

  At 8 inches tall and with a solid metal body, it’s more of a home-base torch than a pocket piece. It’s great for the coffee table, kitchen counter, or a dedicated rig station. If you need something to toss in a bag daily along with smaller pieces like nectar collectors, you might want a more compact torch for on-the-go use.

• How do I keep the finish looking clean?

  Wipe it down occasionally with a dry or slightly damp cloth to remove fingerprints, dust, or oil. Avoid harsh cleaners on the metal body — they’re not necessary and can mess with the finish over time.

• Is this overkill if I only dab once in a while?

  If you’re more of a once-a-week dabber or just testing the waters, this torch will still work great; it just might feel a bit “pro” compared to basic lighters. The upside is you won’t be looking to upgrade anytime soon, and if you start pressing, storing, and organizing more seriously with things like proper storage and packaging, your torch will already be at that level.
