Hercules Fire Torch: a flared head of stacked louvered rings that glows from within, 14 inches tall

The Outdoor Plus Hercules fire torch has a hand-crafted stainless steel head with stacked horizontal louvered rings that flare upward and glow like a column from the flame inside. At 14 inches tall and 8 inches across, this substantial head suits heavy steel or masonry-wrapped posts at entries or pools. The stainless steel resists heat and weather.

Choose the Original base, which bolts to any 2.5 inch post and has a built-in needle valve to adjust flame height, or the TOP-Lite base that threads onto a half-inch gas pipe. Order it for natural gas or propane. Prefer an open lantern cage? See the Lantern fire torch. The Hercules fire torch ships free from My Cozy Outdoors with No Sales Tax (except WY) and the full manufacturer warranty.

FAQ

Why choose the Hercules Fire Torch?

Muscle. The Hercules carries a robust 8-inch diameter head – twice the width of TOP’s slender torches – so its flame sits in a strong, columnar body that suits big landscapes, long driveways, and commercial patios. It is the torch you pick when the space would swallow anything smaller.

What are the Hercules torch’s specs?

An 8-inch diameter, 14-inch tall head rated to 20,000 BTU, individually hand crafted from high-grade stainless steel. Two builds are offered: the match-lit Original (OPT-TT5M) with built-in needle valve, and the TOP-Lite version (OPT-TCH5SS) designed for electronic ignition.

How does the Hercules attach to a post?

The standard TOP system: any 2 1/2-inch post, hex bolts, and a 3/8-inch flared gas inlet for the fuel connection. Given the Hercules’s heft, pair it with substantial posts – masonry-wrapped or heavy steel look right – and let a licensed installer run the gas.

What is the routine for lighting the Hercules?

On the Original OPT-TT5M, open the valve slightly, touch a long lighter to the burner, and dial your flame with the needle valve – it holds the setting for next time. The TOP-Lite OPT-TCH5SS version skips the lighter entirely with electronic ignition.

How far apart should Hercules torches be placed?

With an 8-inch head this visible, 10 to 12 feet between posts keeps a driveway or property line reading as one continuous statement without crowding. Flanking an entry, a single Hercules pair does the work of four smaller torches around a gas fire pit courtyard.

Does the Hercules handle rough weather?

Its stainless steel build is made for year-round exposure – rain, heat, and winter swings included. Shut the gas ahead of storms, since driving rain can douse the flame, then relight the Hercules once things settle. Occasional cleaning keeps the wide head bright.

Propane or natural gas for the Hercules?

Either – each Hercules is built to order for liquid propane or natural gas, chosen at purchase. At full output it burns about a pound of propane hourly; on natural gas it draws from the house line for pennies. There is no field conversion, so specify carefully.
