Their version has a better QC though. I bought one off them and 2 off AliExpress and both from Ali have visible damage on the nozzle (chips etc.).

2:32 Master TechTips points it at his own face and clicks it. 10/10

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.

You have to move the torches around on the jiffy pop to stimulate moving it around on the stove as per the instructions

Im sorry as much as I love this product, these have been available for years for only around 10-20$. They do have a lot simpler designs though

3:05 come on Linus, wear them 🥽

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.

Pushing the sparking mechanism down with a pen fixes any inconsistent ignition with lighters.

Linus, make a real marshmallow and you'll never want to eat a packaged marshmallow again! (except for convenience and mess!

9:35 "Somehow Grogu Returned" lmaooo 😂😂😂😂

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.

Linus... not taking the paper cover off of the Jiffy Pop... Gen X REMEMBERS how to use these things. :)

Jiffy Pop isn't meant to be heated to 1400 degrees, more like 120F-240F...

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...

“you see what Maul came back from” absolutely killed me!

Omg I thought for a split second that someone was peeing on the fire to put it out at the end 🤣🤣 it must be because I was just in camping mode with marshmallows and sausages 🤣🤣

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.

"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.

The original was a p.o.s candle lighter rebranded as a "saber". This one is a medicore mini butane torch, reshelled and being called a Saber. The people who are buying and/or backing the R&D on these and the "Lightsaber" project are being hard conned.

Linus’ groan while burning baby yoda spooked my dog fr.

yeah, that cloak is synthetic materials, next to an open flame.. don't do that, that's really bad. synthetic clothes are really good at catching fire, and are really good at sticking to you once they do.

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?
