Yes yes

Edit: __ The problem might be considerably simplified if I just concentrate on finding a way to bypass the filling- valve on the lighter … then, any convenient gas source can be connected.

Michael,

Did you see my post about using the head from a "long reach" type lighter?
These have the burner head connected to the tank by a tube. This may be easier to connect to say a blowlamp or gas stove tank and valve.
Additional benefits:
Easier to mount a small burner
Tank away from heat source
adjustment away from heat source
Adaptation under lower pressure
Adaptation not permanenty exposed to pressure.

Robert.

Yes, I did, thank you Robert

The, as yet un-discussed aspect of this is that we have identified a model of lighter which produces the required size and type of flame.
