Hey Noona, I've just bought some from SSA, they were $11.50 each. Just noticed that they only have one large air vent at the base. Is this what you have? We haven't used them yet but they seem like they are quite good quality.

Hi Everybody,

I need some help, we purchased some time back (files in archives) Natural Gas Bunsen Burners. The problem is even when they are on safety flame you can barely see the flame. It is a safety issues that has obviously been that way for awhile. :-|

I'm about to order some more and don't want to make the same mistake :w00t: can anyone recommend where I should buy them from. Unless someone can tell me how to fix the ones we have!

Thanks in advance. :coffee:

It's possible that you got the wrong jet in them!
Get one of your old burners and see if jet is interchangable and try one with old jet and see if that works

Thanks Ocker I'm going to give that a go. The companies I normally deal with are already listed above so maybe it was just a bad batch, I'll try my luck nothing worse than trying to return goods and organise credits, or order problems full stop I'm sure RosalieM will agree.

Four days to go woohoo :coffee:
