The Looftlighter is the next big thing for your barbecue. It uses super heated air to light your wood, charcoal or briquettes. Simply turn it on, touch it to your briquettes and in 60 seconds the fire is lit, in 5 minutes your grill will reach 500 degrees. You will love parting with starter fluid which can be dangerous and can flavor your food. You will be glad to use the Looftlighter for your fireplace too.
