Brinkmann 810-5000-0 All-In-One Outdoor Cooker, Black Review

This All-in-One idea is really cool. As a smoker, it's very good. Easy to maintain temperature by adjusting the gas flow and air intake. It's a little dificult to run at low temps (200f) if the weather is warm. If you turn the gas down too low, a slight wind will blow out the burner. We solved the problem by giving it more gas, but starving the intake of air.
As a grill, it's not very good. It works, but not very efficiently. We have to crank the gas up real hot to get the pumice warm enough to sizzle steaks. We found that in charcoal mode, it works best after putting a grill inside, raised slightly above the vented tray bottom with some spacers. Put the charcoal on the raised grill. The extra air under the coals makes for a hotter fire.
Now the great part; fried turkeys. This is no 30,000 BTU camp stove. The burner on this baby really puts the heat on 4 gallons of oil. It's almost scary how powerful the burner is.
One final word; this setup does not come with a propane tank. If you don't have one, count on another $25-30 bucks, and on big projects, make sure it's full. Theres nothing more depressing than getting halfway through a 8 hour turkey smoke and run out of fuel.

Windmill Classic Stormproof Lighter Review

Windmill Classic Stormproof Lighter
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I've used Windmill Stormproof lighters for over 10 years. When they are working, there is no lighter I've ever had that works better. They are light, compact, easy to fill in the clear models and throw a very hot and directed flame. They are windproof enough that I've lit cigarettes on a motorcycle.H
However, and this is a biggie, they are very poorly designed for reliability. The hinges will break. The lever that opens the top will break. And sometimes they just won't light. This didn't used to be a big deal. You could just send it off to the distributor and they sent you a new one. Now they want to charge you $7.50 for each return and you get to pay the postage to ship it to them. Not much of a "Lifetime Warranty" since that almost certainly covers their cost. Bye-bye Windmill.

Kidde FA110 Multi Purpose Fire Extinguisher 1A10BC Review

Kidde FA110 Multi Purpose Fire Extinguisher 1A10BC

I bought two of these fire extinguishers from Home Depot in 1999. In 2006 my toaster oven flamed up and I quickly pulled out the fire extinguisher and it promptly stopped the fire. Then, just yesterday my toaster oven flamed up again and this time I didn't notice for some time and the flames were pretty bad though still concealed within the toaster. I pulled out the second fire extinguisher and it put out the fire right away. The only downside is that the fire extinguisher can be used only once and the material it spews out is in dust form and it goes all over the place - but that's not so bad considering it stops fires! I'm getting a couple of more of these. It's impressive that they sat unused for almost 10 years and still worked fine in an emergency. I'm also getting rid of the old toaster over :)

Windmill Delta Stormproof Lighter Review

Three years ago I bought this lighter, and recently, the fire coil broke off, so I ordered another one. Then I realized the original was guaranteed for life, so I called Essential Gear, got a return number, and sent my broken lighter to them, even though I hadn't bought the original from them, a fact I told them. The new lighter arrived and worked great, and two weeks later, my old lighter arrived, fixed and at no cost. I use this lighter on the golf course in high winds, and never have a problem. With a lifetime guarantee, it just can't be beat, and I can't say enough about Essential Gear's great service.
