    I ordered a new Prest-o-lite torch handle for IJS 6 months ago and
    it has a newly designed valve that right where your thumb goes when
    holding the torch and you can flick on with your thumb.  If you have
    an electronic sparker on your bench you can light your torch with one
    hand.  It doesn't, however, allow you to adjust the flame.  I adjust
    mine at the regulator.  I'm a happy Pres-to-lite user for more years
    than I care to remember...
