The present apparatus for starting and fanning a fire, for example in a fireplace, is hand operated and combines in a common handle housing a source of fuel for providing an ignition flame and a power source as well as a fan for blowing air into the fire. The fan is driven by the power source such as a battery. The control for the apparatus is so arranged that the supply of fuel gas and an ignition spark occur substantially simultaneously, whereby the fan is preferably operating on "low". Once the fire has started the fuel gas supply is stopped and the fan may be operated on "high" by an electric motor which may be driven by said battery or through an adapter from a power outlet. |
