yup thats it, but it looks like that one comes with the cap and not the case, so you wont get the copper sponge to clean it either.

That ECG is ok. It seems like it will work. I would try a different brand first though as it seems like the flame will drop in intensity after a couple minutes. Maybe they all do this?

Blue Point/ Snap On YAS-1 is the best in my opinion. I think it is 80 bucks through Snapon.com.

Yea I had one of those YAS-1 for some reason I kept breaking them. It was my fault thought. I just upgraded and went to Snap-On's Super Torch. Haven't had a problem with it yet.

My personal favorite is the Weller Portasol. It comes with a case, a hot air tip for heat shrink tubing, a plastic knife, a torch tip, and a 25W soldering tip. You can also purchase a 15W and a 50W soldering tip for the unit which pretty much covers all bases. Mine has been with me for 5 years with no appreciable drop in output. I purchased mine for $60.
