Description
The LavaBox
LavaBox Portable Campfire is more than a radical firepit that spews forth burning goodness for the whole world to admire. We are hardcore outdoor enthusiasts on a mission to save our favorite place -the wilderness- and to create a high-quality firepit that works for our lifestyle.
It's all about quality! We want you to have the best because we like the best. The Golden rule rules. We are hell-bent on creating something tough and useful.
We are on a mission: every year we contend with massive forest fires and heart-breaking destruction, we want to curb the annihilation of our favorite playgrounds.
We all need a place to gather- to recount the day’s excitement and relive adventures in the past. Someone will pull out a guitar and start to play. Some will sit contently and just stare at the flames as they lick the night sky. Everyone will laugh and remember what makes life worth living.
The LavaBox Tabletop is dressed in high-heat powder coat.
One time use? No way! Everything in LavaBox is upcycled, recycled, or multi-use.
The Kit includes:
- A Tabletop dressed in high-heat powder coat
- 10 Hades Stones (colors may vary)
- 20psi hose and regulator
- A goodie bag with BBQ lighter, Instructions and goodies (‘cause it’s a goodie bag)
- Over/Under Grill Rack
Not included: Propane Tank, tank adapter
Special Notes
GOLDEN RULES
LavaBox gives you a safe way to enjoy a campfire.
We want you and your family to be safe using the LavaBox. Follow these 10 Golden Rules:
✔ NEVER leave your LavaBox unattended.
✔ Only allow adults to operate the LavaBox.
✔ Before attaching the propane canister check to make sure all your valves are in the OFF position and that the hose is in good working condition. Make sure that the propane cylinder that attaches to the LavaBox and the knobs that connect the LavaBox to the cylinder are not rusted, not broken, not stripped in any way
✔ Make sure all fittings are snuggly attached.
✔ Always light your LavaBox on the lowest setting.
✔ Use a long lighter and light at the first hole on burner closest to the gas inlet.
✔ NEVER cover the LavaBox.
✔ NEVER use Lavabox indoors. Make sure that the LavaBox is in a properly ventilated area outdoors.
✔ Wait for your LavaBox to completely cool before touching it.
✔ Always check with local law enforcement regarding fire restrictions and be cool.
Forest Fires are destructive and preventable most of the time. Place the LavaBox on a firm, level and nonflammable surface, away from brush or overhangs. To protect the ground, put the LavaBox on a fire blanket, grab a flat rock or use an established fire ring.
Keep the propane tank upright. If you hear or smell a propane leak, quickly turn off the stove, immediately exit the area and call the fire department for assistance. Propane gives off carbon monoxide. Too much carbon monoxide will cause a person’s oxygen level to be depleted and may lead to death.
