Abstract
A wood-fuel pellet burner assembly, such as for barbecues, includes a gravity-feed pellet fuel hopper positioned in alignment with a pellet fuel intake and a perforated pellet fuel slide that extends to a combustion region. A DC ignitor has a heating element that extends into the combustion region, and a DC fan is positioned to direct a flow of air through the perforated pellet fuel slide and into the combustion region. A DC power source, such as a vehicle-grade 12-volt battery, is coupled to and powers the DC ignitor and the DC fan.
