I am sure somebody has done work on piezo-ignition but I have never
seen it. You'd think it could be set to fire at some specific level
of compression. Piezo crystals emit a voltage when a rapid pressure
is
applied, they are the things used in cig lighters that do not have
"flints".
Just think of all the people swearing at their cars like they do now
at
their 2 year old gas grills.

Two years? Hell, the one in my grill made it through a whole month,
almost.

I use charcoal so I did not know this was a problem.
Yep! If I wanted to cook with gas, why would I go outside to do it?


Each have their benefits.

Yes, with gas you can sit in the comfort of your home, with charcoal you
can get food that tastes like food cooked over a fire.


With gas, the wife will bbq something. That is why I have both gas grill
and a wood fired smoker.
