Ya know, I've got one of those SnapOn butane pencils (YAKS32), and I have to say, I love it for light stuff over 12 gauge. It's not like the Weller pencils you'll get at Home Depot or Lowe's. I have used it enough to need to replace a couple of tips.
That said, there is no way in hell I ever would have bought it... They're about $200. My father, God rest his soul, bought it for me almost 10 years ago because all the guys at the shop he worked at were raving about them.
