About This Gear

The Ignik FireCan Elite is a portable propane fire pit designed for outdoor enthusiasts. Its sleek, compact design makes for easy transport and setup, while offering excellent heat output and a cozy ambiance. Its robust build ensures durability, and its heat output matches that of much larger firepits.

Our Take

From our own trips, not from reviews

The reason to own one is the footprint. It throws heat in the same league as the much larger Outland fire bowls out of a thing you can carry in one hand, which is genuinely surprising the first time you run it.

The tradeoff is the other side of that same fact: there is less edge to gather around. Two or three people sit at it comfortably, which makes it the right call for a single family to take along and stay warm. When the group gets big, this stays home and the fire bowls come out.
