Can the burners be lit during a power outage? I live in an area of common ice storms, so that's a make or break for me.

Yes, you just have to use a match or a lighter. However I would not purchase this range, our oven will not hold a consistent temperature, some days it is right on, the next day it is 50 degrees off. We have had repair folks out three times and they say nothing is wrong. I would not recommend this product to anyone.

Haven't tried it, but I'm sure that if you were to use a bbq type igniter it should be easy. I would put the flame of the igniter down by where the units igniter would spark, then turn on the gas (middle burner). Should light right up.

I would be very leery about using glass as a flat surface next to burners. Are the other two burners you use gas? Or are they electric? There is bound to be intense heat involved if the glass edge is anywhere close to flame or a heating element. I don't know if the glass is tempered or designed for such temperature extremes. Furthermore, this item has little plastic feet in the corners that could melt. I'm sorry, but without asking the manufacturer directly if it could tolerate this, I wouldn't do it.

It's not recommended to use a regular lighter to light these coals. They need about 3-5 minutes over stove size flame. Well worth the waiting as they last longer, burn better, don't smell, or taste bad.

The Bainbridge ll can be used during a power outage, it does not rely on electricity to run. As for what fuel, it will run on either natural gas or liquid propane. It's a great little heat source and if you put it on the downstairs level, since heat rises, it will help heat both levels. We have ours in our basement, which now stays nice and warm with the added bonus that our main furnace hardly calls for heat now.

Yes, you can. Just turn the burner on about 75% heat and put your coals on it. Let them sit for about 5 minutes until the bottom half is glowing red, flip and repeat. Once the whole coal is red you are ready to go.

Not that I am aware of. But the burners set down deep in the frame and don't seem to be too affected by the wind etc. Of course I do not use mine in the real outdoors, but in an outdoor kitchen that is partially enclosed. I hope this has helped

I have no idea, they are small cans like cigarette lighter butane comes in so I would not think you would want to leave them out in the heat and cold.

The outside of the heaters gets very hot, if there is hay or other flammable items floating around and it lands on the heating elements it could start a fire, these heaters are nice but they only produce a little bit of heat and a fair amount of light from the 3 heating elements.

I believe you can use electricity. I use mine on a small gas burner on my island for a hot pot. I absolutely love it!

I am confident the unit will be inoperative when temperatures drop below freezing. Try fencing, netting, or a system that generates lights and noise.

Your landscape lighting still runs electricity, so no the lights will not work if there is no power to the transformer. As far as when the power comes back on( we lost power last month in an ice storm), I had no issues with the transformer coming back on and being on the automatic mode...which is the setting I leave it on.

I too just got back from a camping trip and everything worked like a charm. Both burners operated without any missteps. All I can surmise is perhaps a connection may have jiggled loose during shipping. Try opening up the top and looking at the connections under the burner plate. I would further check the burners in an opposite direction...try lighting the burner that did not light first and see what happens. I'm glad mine worked ok while I was out camping, because it is truly a heavy duty piece of camping equipment that will last for years.

If you plumb it properly, you can drain it for the winter. I believe there is built in freeze protection on this unit, however, which will activate the burner if it is at freezing point.

Good question.no last couple months of its life the burners stop turning off you have to plug out to turn it off

The glass does not light on fire. You need propane or natural gas. The flames coming thru the glass is the beauty of using them.
