[[Image:HandFlamer.jpg|thumb|right|A Hand Flamer<sup>2</sup>]]
*'''Flamers''' are the basic version of the flamer. They are portable and hand-held.
*[[Heavy Flamer]]
*'''Hand flamers''' (also called "burners") are more compact pistol versions requiring only one hand. Along with using a lower-capacity fuel tank it has much reduced range, which makes it suited for assault and close-combat purposes, incinerating foes at short range.<sup>1</sup> The weapon is used by assault squads, such as [[Seraphim]] units which employ them in pairs.
