Its called marketing so you can buy complete setup in one package....

Bernz-o-matic actual made/makes a propane torch for plumbing the had/has a 3 foot hose attached... It now appears the Berns-o-matic corporation has been purchased by Worthington Cylinder who is a MAP-PRO and propane tank supplier....







Actually you can buy any torch head, Hot Head or Magna Torch MT 245 (economy version of HH) separate from canister..... Same concept as buying replacement canister without a torch attached.... Your argument does not fly.....

And bulk tanks and hoses and regulators and what knots are alive and well in camping world.....
