I like the idea of a more sophisticated tlud burner for open flame cooking and I have previously mentioned that with modern electronics we could develop a proper mechanism for controlling draught and power, like the ECU on a car does. My experience of electric hot air lighters is that the few seconds that they pyrolyse the wood before it gets above it's autoignition temperature copious acrid smoke is produced. Using kerosene as a starter with a match is faster at getting smoke free.
