you'll probably need to use a blowtorch to get enough heat into the copper so the solder will stick properly

good luck, I did a car radiator once. it worked a treat!

you might find you're better with some thick solder and separate flux than the thin flux-cored solder which you use more for electrical applications

Hi all

Quick question on the temperture of the water when using an L5? What should it be? And on a full day cleaning (7 hours) how much gas will i use? I know it vary from person to person but just a rough idea if you can :)

A 6kg gas bottle will only last just over a week if your using it for that time everyday maybe not quiet as long,the setting i used it on for cold days was no further than a third of the way round the dial,it gets hotter than you think.

The heater runs off of 2 large batterys,all they do is ignite the flame and they should last quiet a while.
