The Looftlighter is the original electric fire starter that revolutionised the way serious BBQ enthusiasts light their grills — no lighter fluid, no chimney starters, no fuss. Using a concentrated jet of superheated air that reaches an extraordinary 760°C (1,400°F), it ignites charcoal, briquettes, and wood in as little as 60 seconds. Just touch the glowing tip to your fuel, hold it in place for a few seconds, then pull back and let the powerful airflow fan the coals into a full, even burn — clean, safe, and devastatingly effective every single time.
Whether you're firing up a Weber kettle for a Sunday sesh, getting your kamado smoker rolling for a long, low-and-slow brisket cook, lighting the firebox of your offset smoker, or bringing a wood-fired pizza oven up to temperature, the Looftlighter delivers a fast, flavour-neutral start every time. There's no chemical taint from lighter fluid to compromise those precious smoke flavours, making it the tool of choice for backyard entertainers, competition pitmasters, and outdoor kitchen enthusiasts across Australia who take their BBQ seriously. Plug in, point, and let the heat do the work.
