Default Propane weed burner question

I've got a rock "lawn" and I would like to quit using herbicide for killing
weeds, and try scorching them instead.

There are a lot of weed / roofing torches on ebay and I was wondering if
there is anything to choose for or against in buying one. The one I'm
leaning toward getting says: "3000+ Fahrenheit" - that's enough, right?

Thanks


I have used ordinary vinegar in a plastic watering can

no weeds return.
