    I think I should suggest "Elon Musk and the flame throwers" as a name for a band he should set up

    That article was dated January 30, they're. Shipped and gone, and ol' Elons, bored of flames and moved onto messing with shortsellers and regulatory boards...
    . . . . They looked just like a gas blowtorch in the shape of a gun... Meh

    Age of the story aside (where were you 10 months ago op) the thing themselves are nothingnto be getting all uppity about. Aldi and Lidl do weed burners on special every now and then that are essentially the same thing without the need gun styling. Diy shops and garden centres sell them all year round. Roofer have them. Yet there's no issue there. Elon Musk makes them for a laugh and suddenly people are idiots.

    Old news, try to keep up the times and stay relevant.

    There are plenty of Elon bashing threads here already, do we really need another one ? :(

    It's an oversized blow-torch and funnily enough came before Elon's big melt-down.

    that's the point lad

    I bet the garden center isn't selling 15000 weed burners in 48 hours.

    Elon Musk sticks some novelty wrapping around it and et voila a ready made market of idiots are immediately on hand to snap them up..

    You think all those people were in need of novelty weed guns? :confused: Well why not go to the garden center then?

    You've missed the point so hard I must presume that you are the proud owner of such a piece of crap. Hope it's keeping the weeds under control.

    Actually I wasn't bashing Elon Musk. He's grand. He sees idiots for what they are. Idiots.

    It was more the mindless fanbois I was commenting on.
