Hi yall, I'm currently working on a custom build for a smoke trailer so I can do big events. Currently I'm trying to figure out how to keep a pilot light on while a temp controller keeps it rolling during early mornings or if I have to leave. The plan is to have a jet burner as the main heat source while a SLC controller operates a solenoid to adjust when to add heat. What would be a good way to keep the pilot? Or is there a way to hook up an electric ignitor in series with it?
