Hello all, I've been running my pb105 and learning all the ins and out of the unit over these 2 years, I've got just one question.

Does Harman still produce the pressure ignition retrofit kit? I've got a 2006 Model with the original finned ignitor, and while it works, it can take upwards of 5-6 minutes to ignite the pellets, and by that time, my water jacket temps are hovering around 145-150.

If the kit is no longer produced, what components would I need to make it happen?

I currently have

New upgraded heavy duty stainless burn pot.
Brand new board as of last year
Red wire esp.

Also, is there any diagrams or does anyone have any pictures of how their pressure ignitor is setup/run? im having trouble wrapping my head around how it operates without directly seeing it in the unit.

Thanks!
