Question

What is piezoelectric generator gas liguhts?

Answer 1

Piezo ignition is a type of ignition that is used in portable camping stoves, gas grills and some lighters, and potato cannons. Piezo ignition uses the principle of piezoelectricity, which, in short, is the electric charge that accumulates in some materials in response to high pressure.

A gas-stove lighter uses a phenomenon called piezo-electric effect to generate an electric spark which ignites the combustible gas from the stove burner. ... When this button is pressed, the hammer is moved away from the piezo-electric crystal. The spring releases the hammer which hits the piezo-electric crystal.
