never seen a phantom,... only seen the cricket, mirage, and delta from GTT, But I ran a CC+ previously to my Mirage and I'd say that the Mirage is comparable to the CC+, of course the Mirage is much more versatile, and more concentrated heat, but the CC+ has a wider heat base. Mirage is by far my fav torch I've owned, or worked on, it seems to becoming the standard torch for what most of us do.

Not that I'm saying you're wrong, but what would you like to suggest? I'm honestly curious here's why.
Used to say, 'you ___ like a girl' Now that's bad.
Used to say, "that's retarded" Now that's bad.
used to say, "That's gay" Now that's bad.
So what, pray tell...and this is open to anyone really to answer, should folks use now?
"It makes my phantom look like a *insert derogatory term of your choosing here*"?
I'm not suggesting that anyone try to make it ok to use derogatory terms about girls, retards or gay people, but how SHOULD it be phrased when you need some sort of comparison?
I suppose we could say it runs like Nomad's nuts after a winter storm, but then we'll have Bedouin's on our back.

Well... Mirages do make a Phantom appear womanly when they're painted with camouflage or snakeskin. That's pretty masculine. All that pink and purple anodized metal is pretty girly.
Heat wise and width wise, agreed that a Mirage is a big step up from a Phantom. There's not as large a difference in width or heat between the centerfire and the outer as there is on a Delta, and then it can blow noticeably larger bubbles and heat solids hella' more than a Phantom. Mirages are my favorite size of GTT, have a good time and put it to good use!

I don't think it's better, faster, smarter. So don't go calling it girly.
Actually I don't care what you call it. It's a nice torch. Enjoy.
(And for the record, talents are gender neutral in my opinion.)

You dont compare a GTT to another GTT torch, you compare GTT torches to every other torch ever invented because nothing compares. Mirage is a great torch you will enjoy! I forgot carlisles suck :)
I forgot carlisles suck :)
YEAH!
except for that part where they dont. :doh::doh:

Your not elite because you own a GTT. All torches have a place.
Now everybody put your cock/clit away.

the mirage is a nice torch. where you felt like you couldnt go to much bigger with your phantom the mirage will get you there. you will also be able to work smaller.
have fun

In reference to the whole "girl is a derogitory term" discussion.
Its all in the interpretation. The OP of the thread didn't necessesairly say anything bad about girls, you just took it as such.
Perhaps in this situation "girl" could mean, smaller and that they consume less? Generaly girls are smaller than men, and by that fact they tend to consume less.
If I didn't just roll out of bed I could probably have a stronger arguement right now, but you all get the point...
Unless your a girl :)
ps. congrats on the new fire power!

LOL Yes it does :) I didnt mean to offend anyone, I noticed over the years no matter what torch anyone has thats the most awesome torch to ever live. Im sure that someone with a redmax would be like this is the greatest thing to happen to glass since pipes. If i had to stop working on a gtt I would go with a bethlehem and then a nortel redrocket, then a redmax, then a 3a national,and then if I still had no other options, it was like quit blowing glass or work on a carlisle I would prolly quit blowing glass :(
^lol c'mon a Carlisle isnt THAT bad at all...
Congrats on the new weapon. I might put myself on the list for one today...Was thinking to look for a used one but so far no such luck!

Don't mean to offend? Then another statement about how horrible my Carlisle, that i just bought, is. Hmm. You can go fuck yourself anytime you please. Preferably with a CC++. Cause it's junk otherwise, right?

Those things suck, and thats also my opinion of knight. Im hoping calinick chimes in here he made a marble on one sometime around the IFC and reviews the torch well.

Lol! That's awesome! I've gotta mirage and love it but I would sure like to get my hands on a herbie sometime too :)
My emo friends even wear those damn pants in august when it's 105 out. Why I ask WHY?

Hey now thats just as unfair as the gender bias, I have Crohns and am skinny not by choice. So just to set the record straight there is nothing politically correct ever it just doesnt happen.
I do have a mirage though and OMG it melts shit twice as fast as my major did I was scrambling to keep up tonight just fired it up for the first time.

Skinny jeans is a specific cut of jeans, I have seen fat people wear skinny jeans.
Yeah, you can imagine!
