      • Related guide: Simple homemade method to check for the presence of a spark on a gas stove and cooktop.

      • In this case, I show you another model that is even simpler with: 2 alligator clips, 2 short pieces of wire, a neon lamp without a protection resistance, a bit of silicone, and heat-shrink tubing.
