Glow Plug


 
After 13 months and over 100 cooks the original glow plug that came with my EX-6 finally died. If I get out of work early enough today I will swap it out for a new one. Feels like I'm losing a part of the family !!
I’m getting a notice to change mine, I’m just wondering if that’s based on a year of running or how the SF determines this? I’m ignoring it for now.🙃 Maybe this weekend. I’ll be using the small stainless hose clamp to lock it in that others have tried.
 
I've only had my EX6 for 8 months and still on the original glow plug, Maybe it's not a high failure rate component any more.

How long do they last in other pellet grills?
Neither used glow plugs. They used a hot rod. The Rec Tec was ceramic and supposedly good for 30 years. Camp Chef was steel, 6 years old when I sold it. Some folks had theirs fail in the first year. I don’t know if there’s much difference between a glow plug and a hot rod other than terminology.
