ABSTRACT:
A piezoelectric ignition kit which includes a piezoelectric ignitor having a distal electrode connected thereto via an insulated conductive lead, and connectors for removably engaging the piezoelectric ignitor and its distal electrode to a gas appliance such as a lantern, heater, or stove. One connector removably engages the piezoelectric ignitor housing to an exterior frame portion of a gas appliance; such a connector has two ends, with each end removably engaged to either the piezoelectric ignitor housing or to the exterior frame portion. The other connector removably engages the distal electrode housing to an interior frame portion of the gas appliance near the burner of the gas appliance; such a connector has two ends, with each end removably engaged to either the distal electrode housing or to the interior frame portion near the burner. The piezoelectric ignitor further includes a heat shrinkable tube tightly wrapped about the contour of the ignitor housing near an actuator of the ignitor to insulate the hand against shocks.
