509-1 Optimum Replacement Ceramic Igniter

This igniter is for the Optimum stove. Easy Replacement Install. Plugs in under stove in the control box and wires to the side. Ready for install. The igniter is common on a lot of stoves and is well made. It is controlled on and off by the manual timer.  Heavy duty, that is why we chose it. We want to have an igniter that keeps working for a long time and a good switch to turn it on or off.  Positive connection type of switch for the timer to add power to the igniter.

The other motor on the stove is the combustion motor.  It handles your exhaust to the outside. Other stoves we make do not require exhaust fans. https://flameinnovation.com/product/caboose-tiny-wood-stove/ In other words, the igniter runs hot and will start the chips in the stove. For instance, you drop in chips, turn on your combustion blower toggle.  Furthermore, this will blow hot air when the fan is running.
