- Looft Industries of Sweden is proud to announce the arrival in
the USA of the new LooftlighterŽ - the fire-lighting tool now
celebrated throughout Scandinavia as a long overdue replacement for
barbecue lighter fluid. Developed by Swedish inventor and impresario,
Richard Looft, the LooftlighterŽ ignites wood or charcoal in less than
60 seconds with its patented hot airstream process. It has finally made
charcoal barbecue preparation quick, clean, safe and easy, without the
need for lighter fluids. Igniting fires and BBQs takes just a few
seconds. When barbequing you can even use the Looftlighter to speed up
the heating process of your coals so that your BBQ is ready for cooking
in just a few minutes. No longer do you have to wait 20 minutes at peak
hunger time. The patented hot airstream process eliminates the chemical
taste that infuses food on BBQs lit using lighter fluid and gas. BBQ
chefs are now achieving the clean taste of their grilling and smoking
recipes. The LooftlighterŽ does not throw flames, but instead blows a
hot airstream at 1,256 degrees Fahrenheit. It will switch off
immediately the user releases the On button, and is equipped with a
safety casing that cools to the touch within a few seconds after use.
In 2007, 15,900 children 5 and younger were exposed to hydrocarbons
including lighter fluids, according to the Annual Report of the
Association of Poison Control Centers' National Poison Data System
(NPDS): 25th Annual Report. Also according to U.S. Consumer Product
Safety Commission's National Electronic Injury Surveillance System in
2007, 18,600 patients visited emergency rooms because of injuries
involving grills. Gasoline or lighter fluid was a factor in roughly
one-quarter of the charcoal or wood burning grill burns - www.NFPA.org.
Simply
plug the LooftlighterŽ into a wall socket, and touch the nose of the
lighter to your wood or coals. In about 15 seconds sparks will appear.
