F.A.Q.s
Frequently Asked Ques ons (FAQs)
Q – What is the heat output of the GrillGun in BTUs?
A – Up to 400,000 BTUs. The completely blue flame indicates that the fuel is
being completely consumed and every BTU of propane energy is being u -
lized.
Q – I see in your video on your website, how you just light the charcoal
through the grill grates. Is that how you recommend doing it?
A – Only if you have heavy steel grill wires or cast metal grill grates like I
have in my video. Small chrome plated wire grates look good when new, but
in use the finish will quickly burn off due to the heat of the charcoal fire. The
GrillGun will make this happen faster. If you are concerned about keeping
your chrome finish in good condi on as long as possible, then you should
remove the wire grill grate from covering the charcoal before ligh ng the
charcoal. A er you've lit the charcoal, then put the grate back on and then
briefly blaze it with the GrillGun to sterilize it and burn off the grease and
excess food from your last grilling. Scrape it clean with a wire brush, and
then throw on the food and commence cooking.
Q – Why can't I use a regular weed torch to light my grill instead of buying
your fancy GrillGun?
A – You can. I did that for more than a decade of outdoor grilling before I
had the bright idea of making something that really looks cool and is ergo-
nomically balanced and easy to use. Some weed torches put out the same
heat (or more) but are not as focused or as efficient with fuel as the Grill-
Gun. Our air-fuel mixture is very lean, using approximately 40% less fuel
than a comparable weed torch, which is why you are able use the GrillGun
with a 1-lb propane bo le and get so much use out it before you exhaust the
fuel.
Q – With the GrillGun, when I'm ligh ng my charcoal, my charcoal glows
red but doesn't turn gray, like I'm used to seeing?
A – The gray color you see is burned charcoal. While burning, the charcoal
gets a coa ng of ash on the surface all around it from the charcoal that has
already burned. While ligh ng the charcoal, the GrillGun blows away the
ash, which exposes the red, glowing charcoal wherever it is lit. Once the
coals are all lit (that is, red and glowing) you can stop using the torch and
the charcoal will turn gray as it con nues to burn.
