Looftlighter Electric Fire Starter - Model 10439
The Looftlighter is widely regarded as the quickest, cleanest and safest way to get charcoal, briquettes or wood burning. Rather than relying on flammable liquids or gas, it uses a blast of superheated air to ignite your fuel in as little as 60 seconds - getting you cooking sooner and without any chemical taste or fumes.
-
Rapid ignition: Charcoal grills, fireplaces and even pizza ovens can be lit in around 60 seconds. Once the fire catches, you can let it develop naturally or keep the airstream directed at the same spot to speed things along further.
-
Built with safety in mind: There's no open flame, gas or chemical starter fluid involved - just hot air. The outer casing is also designed to cool down quickly once you've finished using it.
-
Better for the environment: Traditional lighter fluids release CO2 and harsh odours into the air. The Looftlighter avoids all of this, using only heated air to do the job, so there's no chemical residue affecting the flavour of your food.
-
Use it anywhere: Suited to year-round use, the Looftlighter works just as well indoors for lighting a fireplace, chimney or hearth as it does outside at the barbecue.
-
Thoughtfully designed: As the original electric fire starter of its kind, the Looftlighter combines clever functionality with quality materials. A handy bottle opener is built into the stand and hook - a small but practical touch for enjoying a drink while you grill.
How to use it:
-
Touch: Arrange your charcoal into a pile and touch the tip of the Looftlighter against it.
-
Pull back: Once you see sparks or a glow, draw the Looftlighter back a few centimetres to help the heat spread evenly through the charcoal.
-
Continue: Keep the airstream aimed at the same spot for at least 60 seconds until the fire is well established.
