I assume you mean to lite your BBQ. Get a MAPP gas torch at Home Depot or Lowes. Burns hotter than Propane.

Burnzomatic TS 8000 MAPP gas torch. Adjustable flame, Piezio ignitor with a bottle of MAPP for $50. Lights lump in about 20 seconds in 12 degree weather. Lowe's

Spring for the push button lighter on the weed burner. You will be happy you did.

I'm partial to the long barrel ones, so I don't have to reach into the drum very far (I have a 43" tall BDS) or so I can stand way back when I light my Eggs. I also got a 15' hose so I don't have to pack that bottle around.

I picked up this bad boy at Harbor Freight - love the push button ignitor

My neighbor asked when we started having jets take off in the cul de sac. But then he loved it when I melted the ice on his steps before he could finish his beer.

That's the one I have. I have to fight with my father-in-law to see who gets to light the charcoal with it.

I just bought one of these. I love how simple it is to use. Just push the button and you get an awesome flame. Works with mapp gas too.

i have this one also. i thought the igniter was broken, but i just had to rotate the electrode back into the gas stream and clean off the gunk on the metal at the sparking path. if your igniter doesn't work, clean & rotate!
