Lilmopho Posted November 3, 2009 Share Posted November 3, 2009 Alright so I am not considering getting a torch because you have to refill it all the time and also I went to Wal - Mart and got this hot plate ... but that doesnt do anything. Also I don't want to have to waste quick lights just to light a coal.Any ideas on ways I can light themCocanaras Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jondd88 Posted November 3, 2009 Share Posted November 3, 2009 +1 on the Walgreen's Electric Burner.I picked mine up on Saturday and like NOB said, they are on sale for about 8 dollars.I use AF coconut coals and it takes me maybe 10 minutes from plugging it in to having ready coals.I would highly recommend it.

Cuts the time to light in half.Interesting, 10 minutes seemed quick enough since I use that time to prepare the rest of the Hookah, but I think I will try that anyways.How big should the cover be?

Cuts the time to light in half.I think it's easier to save the foil and put your coals on first and then go clean and prepare your hookah and load a bowl. By the time you're done the coals will be too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Done that to two of them.great point, what i see alot of people doing is they use those really small tiny fans to blow on the coals has they light..it may sound good on paper but really what does it cut 1-2 minutes? i just dont see that being worth it to stock a fan in my stash to heat coals..

My old burner got wet a few times so that it began to shock whoever flipped the coals. It was... quite unpleasant when I found out.Bring your burners in!

By the time you're done the coals will be too. Well you only need to make one cover... the covers last 3 or 4 months. It reduces the time it takes to light coals for the 2nd or 3rd round.
