What types of shisha charcoal burner are there: gas or electric?
There are basically two families of shisha burner: electric and gas. Each one has its own strengths:
- Electric burner: flameless and convenient for indoor use.
- Gas burner: lights up really fast, ideal for outdoors.
The right choice depends on where you'll be setting up your shisha and whether you value fast lighting more than the convenience of not relying on a gas canister.
Electric shisha burner: benefits and power options
An electric shisha burner is the most practical way to light natural charcoal at home: just plug it in, there's no flame and your charcoal is ready in a few minutes. We stock options from 500W, like the HC Travel Burner 500W Electric Burner, up to more powerful models such as the Dash Inferno Mauna Electric Burner, which reaches 2200W.
The higher the wattage, the sooner your charcoal is usually ready, which comes in handy if you're preparing several shishas in a row or you're in a hurry. If you just want something simple for everyday use, an entry-level burner does the job perfectly.
Gas shisha burner: speed and outdoor use
A gas shisha burner stands out for its speed: it lights natural charcoal in no time, which is a real plus when you're away from home with no socket nearby. It's the go-to option for parks, the beach or any outdoor plan where you want your shisha ready as soon as possible.
We have the Dash Exxon Gas Burner for €19.95, and you'll also find 190 gr gas canisters as refills so you never run out mid-session.
What's the best cheap shisha burner?
If you're after a cheap shisha burner that's still reliable, the entry-level electric range is your best bet. For €14.95 you can get the HC Burning Coal 1000W Electric Burner or the HC Travel Burner 500W Electric Burner, both designed for hassle-free home use.
If you'd rather go for an affordable gas option, the Dash Exxon Gas Burner at €19.95 is another simple, no-fuss alternative. For everyday use, you don't need to spend much more to get your charcoal properly lit.
How to choose a shisha burner for your natural charcoal
All these burners are designed for natural charcoal, not quick-light tablets. When choosing, think about where you usually smoke:
- At home or indoors: an electric burner is best, with no flame.
- Outdoors or if you're in a rush: a gas burner lights faster.
- If you prepare several shishas in a row: consider a higher-powered model.
There's no single right answer; it depends on your routine and where you set up your shisha most often.
Burner accessories and spare parts (guards, heating elements, gas canisters)
A burner also needs some maintenance and replacement parts from time to time. In our shop you'll find the Electric Burner Protective Grill for €4.95, which helps extend the life of your electric burner and protects the heating element.
We also carry replacement heating elements for specific models, such as the Shisha Turbine Electric Burner Heating Element, plus 190 gr gas canisters so you're never out of gas when you need it. Keeping a spare on hand avoids surprises right before your shisha session.
