Direct hot air for lighting charcoal
This electric charcoal lighter is designed to direct a concentrated stream of heated air onto charcoal and other suitable solid fuel. It provides a practical alternative to lighting barbecue charcoal with conventional firelighters, making it useful when preparing a grill, smoker or outdoor fire. The perforated aluminium alloy tube directs the airflow towards the fuel while the handle keeps the control area away from the hottest end.
The lighter reaches a maximum temperature of 600°C and delivers an air volume of 500 l/min. This combination of high heat and airflow is intended for ignition work rather than general-purpose heating. The 26cm tube gives the tool a useful working reach, while its 1mm thickness forms the stated tube construction.
Made for outdoor cooking and fire lighting
Use the electric fire ignition device when preparing charcoal for a barbecue or smoker, or when starting a wood stove, fireplace, campfire or fire pit. The integrated holder and stand provide a place to rest the tool when it is not being held, helping keep the hot tube supported between uses. A single-button control provides straightforward on/off operation.
The handle is made from Bakelite and the tube from aluminium alloy. The product is listed as heat resistant, with a 2 metre power cord for connection to a suitable power supply. As with any high-temperature electrical tool, allow the heated end to cool fully before handling or storing it, and keep the working area clear of combustible materials other than the fuel being lit.
