what is the best small torch for burning wire and ekowool?

Just get a cheap butane torch. Any one of them will work fine.

It's not cheap, but you said you wanted the best. I can't say it's the best, but it's pretty damn good.

There's Bernzomatic @ Lowe's for $28. Works for years for me.

Any good restaurant supply store will have QUALITY torches.
Ones that will last and not leak butane!

Try This one

I don't need another. I have been using the Bernzomatic for over 4 years. Trouble free dependable and does not leak. I use it every day. That is why I recommend it to people looking for a good torch at a very affordable price.

I'm sure this one would be good too.

Call me crazy but I just use the blue flame of my gas stove. I of course use some gloves and needle nose pliers for safety.

Why not... It don't take that much heat to flame Kanthol or oxidize the gauge ss mesh we use..
It would jut be a bit slower, but not THAT much slower...

Your not crazy Scott. You are lucky to have a gas stove.

You'll pry my gas stove from my cold dead fingers...
On the other hand, you can't use an inverted funnel to suck through while you drip on a gas stove if your last battery bites the dust either...

Everythings a trade off!
ROFLMAO!!

You are correct but something tells me, if I really wanted to, I could pour juice into an iron skillet, throw it on the stove, drill a hole in the lid and use an inverted funnel to get more vapor than I could handle.
