“That gasoline taste.”
Fluid soaks into the coals and into dinner. Embervolt uses heat, not chemicals. Nothing to taste.
Plug it in.
No fluid.
No newspaper.
No stink.
Ten minutes.
Coals ready.
Rapid electric charcoal igniter
Embervolt
The charcoal chimney with the heater built in. Plug it in, and dinner starts ten minutes sooner.
Why grillers switch
Lighter fluid stinks. Chimneys smoke out the patio. Wands burn out.
“Newspaper, wax cubes, a lighter, and ten minutes of fanning.”
Fill it, plug it in, walk away. The chimney does the fanning.
“The wand died in a year.”
Wand starters sit in the fire. Embervolt’s heater sits under the coals in a heavy galvanized can built to take it.
How it works
Fill. Plug. Grill.
-
01
Fill
Pour in charcoal, up to a full chimney.
-
02
Plug
Plug it in. The light comes on. Heat starts at the base and climbs.
-
03
Grill
About ten minutes later, pour glowing coals onto the grate. Unplug and done.
Built for the backyard
Heavy steel. Cool handle. One light that tells you it is working.
- Safe-Touch handle. A steel heat shield between your hand and the can.
- Heavy-duty galvanized steel. The same gauge as a serious chimney, with a wire tripod that keeps it off the table.
- Built-in electric element. Heat starts under the coals, so the whole load lights evenly.
- Indicator light. Red means it is on. No guessing, no holding a button.
- 100% chemical-free ignition. No fluid, no cubes, no smell.
- 10-minute rapid start. From cold to glowing while you prep.

Real questions
The things people ask before they buy.
How long does it take?
About ten minutes to glowing coals with a full chimney, a little less with a half load.
Do I need an extension cord?
It needs a standard outlet. For a far grill, use an outdoor-rated extension cord.
Does it stay hot after?
Yes, like any chimney. Set it on the tripod on a heat-safe surface and let it cool before storing.
Does it work in wind?
Yes. The heat comes from inside the can, so wind does not blow it out.
Do I have to hold a button?
No. Plug it in and the light tells you it is on. Unplug when the coals are ready.
