I have a really excellent micro torch that I got off of eBay for $20 including shipping to Canada... but I mostly use it for management of heat, and not to actually light the coals due to the afformentioned costs of fuel.Oven burners = win.

olooko Posted November 20, 2007 Share Posted November 20, 2007 You use a blow torch, it last pretty long. I went through 1 box of exoticas and 1 bag of Dynamites before you have to change and it'll cost you 4 buck to get a new bottle. If you want something that will pretty much light any coal I would go with the Blowtorch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Patzke Posted November 20, 2007 Share Posted November 20, 2007 That's a really small image. But thats what i use, it's perfect. Efficient, butane refills are relatively cheap and it fits in my Mya Bambino's case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hookah hippie Posted November 21, 2007 Share Posted November 21, 2007 Electric stove or lighter depends on what kind of coals Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RayVer Posted November 21, 2007 Share Posted November 21, 2007 check out the first minute of two of my 'how to pack tangiers....' video. I show my method for lighting coals quickly. basically I shape a long sheet of foil into a dome cover and place it over the stove with the coals. lights up 2x faster because the heat stays trapped from the foil reflecting the heat waves Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also showed it to my smoking buddy and he liked that idea as well, so we'll prolly make something along those lines...and thanks for making an awesome video. Showing it step by step is really helpful to me and I bet a lot of other people, keep up the good work man =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
