Can this be ignited manually with a match or striker in the event the piezo automatic igniter fails?

A new igniter is dirt cheap and looks easy to replace. I bought a spare just in case. Search PNSK002.

Yes, it can be done. I've just tried - without any problems, just need to decrease flow control.

I have been using it for months & haven't had trouble igniting it. I use it to make jewelry. With the tips off its a torch. You may be able to ignite with a lighter or striker, personally I would be afraid it would explode. I probably would get a new one if the auto igniter quit.

Is it the igniter that is faulty? Or does the burner unit just need a good brushing with a steel brush? Can it be lite with a match/lighter?

I either use a long nosed butane lighter (like the kind you use on a grill), or, as Ken T. says, if you have a flint and steel striker/spark maker, it'll light fairly easily. Alcohol has a pretty easy flashpoint, so even tossing a match down in the solo stove will probably do the trick, just don't burn the hair off of your fingers.

Yes you can. You can use triggers to fire it or the old school way of using a sync chord. Works great!

No, and beware of these! I sent it back because, after I wired everything (correctly), when I made the final connection, it sparked like a welder. I wish I had read the other reviews before buying, apparently others have had the same experience with these. You get what you pay for. Good Luck

It works great for me...one push one spark or bunch of sparks, you have to push each time you want it to start, the first burner starts with a push and the rest of the burners start automatically from each other

Nothing is necessary for this torch to work (other than fuel). It has NO safety (which is nice). You simply turn the knob to open/dispense fuel (you'll hear a little hiss) then press the ignition button (you'll hear a click) and boom... you have a constantly-on flame. To extinguish the flame simply turn the knob back in the "off" position to close/turn the fuel off. Hope that helps describe it's exact functionality! :-)

If you want to trigger it with TTL, yes. There are pocket wizards that do the same thing and they are much more expensive! You can trigger with manual mode on these as well.

No igniter and you would probably need to remove the sides to cook with a wok. Shouldn't be a problem, though.

Good evening. The igniter is one of positions on the switch. Next Day MRO has this product in stock and offers quick shipping.

There is a "test switch" that you can push that makes contact and turns the unit on. I would assume you could either zip tie that down tight to keep in contact, solder it, or use some other means to maintain contact, but I doubt that would be recommended and do not know if it would eventually overheat or be a fire hazard.

Yes. Just pull the trigger each time. Full auto only kicks in if you hold the trigger. There is no switch just based on the trigger pull

I just hit it once but it burns it up. I've had to just figure out the time and put in 1 minute 25 seconds manually. Brand and type could be the problem, but it's not auto.

you would be able to manually light the burners with a match/lighter, but the oven would not work, nor would the electric ignitor

You bet!! Replace it as soon as you can. The hot could cause sparks, then fire! Good luck!

If you are seeing sparks, your piezo is working, you just need to adjust your fuel valve, probably turning it down, at least until lit.

Not by itself. You would need to add another resistor. Otherwise it would burn up almost immediately
