Circular Handles Only
Although this is a nifty little item, my Weber grill was not a recent enough model for this to work with. The light comes with two handle adapters, but both are for circular style handles (mine is rectangular). The tilt sensor works well. In addition, you can just use the easy to access on/off button. The light is not extremely bright and is a bit yellowish, but it will give you enough to grill by.
the fun won't last
All of the above reviews are correct. It is nifty, it iluminates the grill quite well, its a great gadget, etc.
BUT I've had mine for eight months now, and by the third month, it started to loose its grip on the handle (because of the heat I guess), so much that it will not hold its own weight and slides so the light will not iluminate the grill anymore.
When you close the lid, this thing is supposed to turn itself off automatically, it did that at first, now it stays dimly lit, so everytime I close the lid when grilling I have to turn it off, this kind of ruins the whole auto-shut-off feature.
Please note that my grill is always under a roofed terrace and always with the plastic cover when not used.
This product is not up to Weber quality standards, not even close.
Essential for grilling after dark!
I wasn't sure how well three LED's would provide enough light for my Genesis B, but this product really impressed me.
I no longer need to wedge myself as close as I can get to my porch light and attract every bug in the neighborhood to my back yard (and food!). The tilt-activated on/off works flawlessly, and installing it took minutes.
It looks great on the grill handle, and battery life is really good, too. I bought this in May (when it cost $10 more!) and haven't needed to replace the batteries yet. And I ususally use this about 3 times a week.
I'm actually kicking around buying one as a spare, just in case.
