Looft Lighter I

$99.00

Light Your Charcoal in 60 Seconds. No Chemicals. No Flames.

The Looft Lighter I offers the quickest, safest, and cleanest way to light your grill or fireplace. It starts your fire in 60 seconds with superheated air only — whether it be charcoal, briquettes, or logs. NO gas, NO flame, and NO need for lighter fluids.

Why the Looft Lighter changes everything:

Lighter fluid leaves a chemical taste on your food. Chimney starters work but take 15-20 minutes. The Looft Lighter hits 1200°F and gets your charcoal glowing in 60 seconds using nothing but superheated air. It's faster, cleaner, and your food tastes better.

Key features:

  • FAST: Hits temperatures of 1200°F and gets charcoal glowing in 60 seconds
  • VERSATILE: Works on charcoal grills, pizza ovens, fireplace logs, and briquettes
  • SAFE: No gas, no flame, no lighter fluids — just superheated air. Safety casing cools down seconds after use
  • CLEAN: No CO2 emissions and no toxic chemicals. Lighter fluid becomes a distant smelly memory

How it works:

The Looft Lighter uses an electric heating element to produce a stream of superheated air at 1200°F. Point it at your charcoal, hold for 60 seconds, and you've got glowing coals ready to spread. No waiting, no chemicals, no hassle.
