In ''Battlefield Vietnam'', the '''Blowtorch''' is issued as an option to the [[Engineer (Kit)|Engineer]] kit of any [[United States of America|American]] and [[South Vietnam]]ese faction. The blowtorch is the opposite of the wrench, as the blowtorch inflicts damage to vehicles rather than renew its health. It is dangerous to use to destroy a vehicle, such as a tank, as the target will explode. It is recommended to only use the blowtorch to almost destroy a vehicle, and then finish it off with C4, which is also issued to the Engineer.

The '''Hoff-3000 Repair Tool''' is a gadget featured in ''[[Battlefield 2142]]'' for the [[Engineer]] kit. It is used to repair vehicles, [[sentry gun]]s, supply crates, and other gadgets. [[Titan]] perimeter cannons and air defense guns can also be repaired by targeting their respective console in the Titan's hangar area. The Titan's reactor consoles and the [[A3-Goliath IFV]]'s repair cells ''cannot'' be repaired, however.

The repair tool cannot be used in any offensive manner; it will not fire when not near a valid target. An engineer sitting in an [[FAV]]'s third seat (facing to rear, unprotected) can repair it while in motion. Engineers can also repair their own [[air transport]] by sitting in the fifth or seventh position and targeting the floor. While repairing commander assets or Titan gun consoles, an "overheated" repair tool continues to repair at a slower rate, though the repair animation does not play. The tool still needs to fully recover following such use.

The Hoff-3000 Repair Tool is a gadget featured in Battlefield 2142 for the Engineer kit. It is used to repair vehicles, sentry guns, supply crates, and other gadgets. Titan perimeter cannons and air defense guns can also be repaired by targeting their respective console in the Titan's hangar area. The Titan's reactor consoles and the A3-Goliath IFV's repair cells cannot be repaired, however.

The repair tool cannot be used in any offensive manner; it will not fire when not near a valid target. An engineer sitting in an FAV's third seat (facing to rear, unprotected) can repair it while in motion.

The Blowtorch is a handgun featured in Battlefield Heroes for the Soldier. Two variants are available, the Royal Bernhardt's Blowlamp and the National Faust's Panzercutter. Both were added in the Steampunk Heroes update. Used to melt tank steel, it has a very high rate of fire and damage, but a very limited range. It can be used to hurt infantry as well, but the victim needs to stand still.
