Rauchboy Smoker

Here at Beckys bees we have only ever sold one type of smoker, the Rauchboy. We are really pleased it is back in stock and the smoker now also comes with a free Rauchboy hive tool.

In all smokers, the fuel needs a constant supply of oxygen. Unfortunately, the design of many smokers makes an even supply of oxygen impossible. After only a few minutes, the smoke material, swelling with condensation, closes the fire chamber off and the air circulation constantly drops and the fire goes out.

The beekeeper can delay this process a little by using materials that glow longer, or by using the bellows. Both methods cause extra, unnecessary work for beekeepers and are also highly unreliable. Any delay, for example, searching for the queen, reduces the fire. It then has to be fanned up again with considerable effort, or even rekindled. If this is to be avoided, adequate air circulation should be ensured at all times.

This smoker has an internal design to ensure constant air circulation through the embers. Compaction of the fuel can no longer have any adverse effects, as the air flow can emerge at the sides and thus ensure an even supply oxygen.
