I used it once, and now it will no longer produce a flame. Any fixes? I did check if I was out of butane, but that wasn't the problem.

I don't know. I had a similar problem with mine and just returned it and got a new lighter

Perhaps your striker is malfunctioning? Do you smell gas when you open the valve? If so, then you have good gas flow but the striker may not be working. In which case, use a match or a lighter to light the torch. Be sure to light the match/lighter BEFORE you turn on the gas flow. If you don't want to do that, contact Blazer and tell them that your torch is defective. If they're worth any salt, they should send you a replacement.

Yeah had the same issue. Headed up with in 10 mins of use. The manual does mention not to use it for prolonged periods though. Mine didn't last too long after it started heating up

I too, saw the "E2" warning. I unplugged it and cleaned it, to try again. Well, that's when it happened!! Unplug it, carefully place it back in the box, and send it back! Mine got so hot, it almost melted the counter top. (it did melt part of the smoker!) Send it back! Take no chances.

Did you check to ensure there is no fouling of the ignition wire? This happened on my previous torch and I never could get the igniter clean enough to use again...so I ordered a new torch.

I've only had the chance to use mine once and it worked fine. It was quite hot. Call the mfg as you may have a defective hose.

Unfortunately I don't have a good solution. My fire pit came with a defective igniter and so I resorted to using a $1.00 Walmart igniter. I hold the switch in for about 20 seconds and the burner stays lite.

I had mine plugged in for a few months - only using it occasionally - and one night when I wasn't using it, started flashing red in the middle of the night - it didn't turn the heat on while it did this. It didn't stop when I used the control so I unplugged it and replugged it in and it's been fine. Nothing in the manual about that. If it does it again I will call the manufacture.

I understand that is new but I am still of the opinion that either the burner holes are clogged by some debris or the propane gas valve is not fully opened so not enough pressure reaches the rear side of the burner - you have only one ignition system and that means that either it ignites or it does not, and in your case, it does, so to me it looks like the fuel doesn't make it all the way - I'm not an engineer but have been struggling with this very pretty grill for years; I buy and change the burner every year ($49)! ... I also have a full size propane can and purchased a full size hose adaptor and connector (approx. $14)... Good luck!

Same thing happened to me. It's a fire hazard. Plus, it puts out toxic fumes when it burns. I was not cooking on high (rarely do, because I use Henckel's ceramic ware). It may be a good product for some people, especially those with electric or ceramic stove tops. And it may be only a few of the items that tend to catch fire. But a few is too many for me. I wish I could return it.

Maybe you got one that has a broken wire. Return it and ask for a replacement. Mine worked the first time. Still powering my lighter I installed.Sorry I can't be of more help.

I had this same issue. What worked for me was turning the valve to allow for more fuel to be released. Once I did this, I had no issues starting this great lightweight stove.

We just bought the stove this summer and we did not have an issue with ours. Sorry to hear it did not work for you. It may be a manufacture defect.

Most likely the heat element burned out. Local repair shops would not fix it even tho still on warranty. Returned the unit to Oreck. They sent a new one which works ok.

I just bought one on 11/11/13, and would like to also convert it to propane fire ring. Did you complete yours yet and how did it go? any tips ?Thanks. John

You didn't buy it from me, but perhaps on my recommendation. My igniter has been fine, but if you look at others reviews suggest many have igniter issues like yours. Just like them, you can use a lighter, following the manufacturer's instructions.

I've found that the gas dial is touchy. If you turn it to the start position, most of the time on the first few tries it doesn't produce any gas through the burner. Try turning it while pushing in, and then turn all the way on and then off. The next turn to the start position should produce gas and you can start it with a long match or the igniter. That worked for mine, anyway...Good luck!

I have the same device. Of course I didn't realize that it was for meat temp., not grill temp, so when it went over what you'd ever want for meat... well same problem. However, I noticed the problem right away and it was just fine next time I used it. If you didn't see it right when it happened, but let it get even higher you might have burned something out. Not much help, sorry and good luck.
