Ooph Posted December 2, 2007 Share Posted December 2, 2007 Many of you guys have said you burn natural coals on this, was wondering how long it took to get these coals fully lit. This is the 1000 watt one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IceCreamCakes Posted December 2, 2007 Share Posted December 2, 2007 What you should do is save the quicklights for when your not at home where theres a stove or electricity available Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oolatec Posted December 2, 2007 Share Posted December 2, 2007 Ya... Quicklights when I'm out and about... Exoticas when I'm home. Which reminds me... I have to stock up on 3Ks... argh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mushrat Posted December 2, 2007 Share Posted December 2, 2007 Just space the coals out on it, don't clump them and try to use different parts of the coil each time. Eventually you will melt the outer coating of the coil and crack the ceramic inner section with the wire running through it and kill it. But under even heavy normal use it should last a good long time. My burners at the bar have to be replaced every 6-8 weeks, but they are on for 12-14 hours a day 6 days a week, often loaded with coal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZenSilk Posted December 3, 2007 Share Posted December 3, 2007 Thoise coil stoves work MUCH better than butane or propane stoves... and you dont nee dreplacement gas canisters. I own and have used both, and i say electric. And they are cheaper. I own the one Nazar sells. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SmokingDjinn Posted December 7, 2007 Share Posted December 7, 2007 Ok, I got this exact model in today and it works like a charm. I plug it in outside, heats up fast, and the house dosn't smell like charcoal. Everyone I live with is happy and so am I. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZenSilk Posted December 7, 2007 Share Posted December 7, 2007 5 minutes. I rest them sideways (with the corners inbetween the coils)., and flip them when red hot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
