Backpacks - For Hard to Reach Weeding

The Weed Dragon and VT21/2-30C backpack models are great for around the home and garden. We've packaged it with a durable back pack and 10 pound cylinder to make your weed flaming even easier. Great kits for home and garden, forest service, farm, garden and municipalities. Versatile and easy to use!

Get What You Pay For. ..

Red Dragon torches have been manufactured in La Crosse, KS for over 55 years! We take pride in American made products and warrant all of our products against manufacturers defects.

Having trouble starting your torch? Give us a call or see how to properly start your torch kit below!

How Do I Properly Start My Torch Kit?

Starting with everything off and closed (Propane tank and needle valve) slowly crack the knob of your propane tank about ¼ to ½ of a turn. This will provide plenty of propane flow, depending on the level of propane in your tank, to provide a large usable flame. Next, you need to wait about 5-10 seconds for the propane to fill the hose. You will then slowly crack your adjusting needle valve about ½ a turn, and then proceed to light the torch. Following this procedure (also listed in your torch kit's instruction booklet) will prevent the safety valve from engaging and prohibiting your use. If you find that you have turned your kit on too quickly, shut everything off and give the P.O.L. safety feature time to reset (about 1 minute). Hint: Neither the tank valve nor the needle valve on the torch needs to be opened all the way to get a usable flame.

Still having issues? Contact us and talk to a living, breathing human!

Save Propane with a Squeeze Valve!

The Red Dragon V-880P/H-1 allows you to add a squeeze valve and handle to any Red Dragon Vapor Torch Kit (Excluding The Mini Dragons And Ht11/2-10cr Torch Kits). Perfect for those who use a Red Dragon Torch Kit for spot weeding and instances where full flame is not continuously required. This kit will quickly pay for itself in propane savings. The all-brass squeeze valve has an adjustable pilot feature.

A quick pass with the torch and you'll see weeds wilt and die.

A thumb print on the weed leaf indicates success.

Shortly after flaming the weed turns a dark green and shows stress and wilting.

Days later, weed decay is obvious.

12 customers mention7 positive5 negative

Customers are mixed about the flammability of the blowtorch. Some mention it shoots out an impressive flame, while others say it starts many unwanted small fires. The flame does not go far, and it is hard to keep a 400,000 btu flame for large jobs that take more than a few minutes. On the plus side, it is great for starting bonfires and firepit logs, but it can also ignite anything flammable.

"...squeezing the gas valve it sounds like a jet engine and shoots out an impressive flame that made me all giddy inside...." Read more

"...On the con side, it is hard to keep a 400,000 btu flame for large jobs that take more than a few minutes...." Read more

"...components and as long as I follow the instructions, I get a seriously strong flame that makes my weeds wilt delightfully." Read more

"...Also very limited to where you can use this because it ignites anything flammable (sticks, dried plants, mulch, ect.)...." Read more

"I'm a woman and found the wand a little heavy to hold for any duration...." Read more

Check thread quality before use.
Fittings don't appear to be machined right... Assembled by hand tightening first to see full assembly. Assumed I just needed some wrench muscle. Called the manufacturer and left a voicemail. Will update review.
