Yep. I suppose I knew that more oxygen could be the issue. I have 2 5lpm units that I got as a huge bargain. But whenever I use a torch with tanked oxygen, it's much hotter. So much to consider...

This should definitely be considered. It is a bit pricey for me at the moment though. I will keep my eyes pealed for a used one.

I don't believe the intake filter is blocked and it looks clean.

The reset button takes care of it for a while but not indefinitely.

I'll try running it unhooked up and see what happens.

The second bead in the picture (didn't see that on the site I looked at yesterday) appears to be similar to what I've been getting out of it. Hurray!
