Its three main burners are cast from 1\/4-inch-thick 304 stainless steel — not stamped, not thin-walled — and each one puts out 31,000 BTUs for a combined 63,000 BTUs across 540 square inches of primary cooking real estate. Add the 240-square-inch warming rack and you have 780 total square inches to work with, which is enough to keep even an opinionated crowd fed without playing Tetris with your proteins.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis SKU (A540I-8EAN) ships complete with an 18,000 BTU stainless steel infrared backburner and a heavy-duty rotisserie kit including motor and spit rods — both items that are optional on other configurations. If you've been wanting a rotisserie setup without the hassle of sourcing components separately, this is the one to order.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe cooking grates are 304 stainless steel Diamond Sear Grids, machined in a trapezoid shape that maximizes contact and produces the kind of sear marks that make guests quietly reconsider their own backyard setups. Below the grates, 16-gauge stainless steel flavor grids catch drippings and return them as smoke rather than letting them disappear into a drip tray.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHot surface ignition handles the lighting duties — no clicking, no piezo frustration, no ceremonial lighter-fluid rituals. The system requires a 120VAC \/ 15 AMP minimum GFCI outlet, so plan your outdoor electrical accordingly. Once the hood is up, two 12V \/ 10-watt halogen interior lights illuminate the cooking chamber, and the analog thermometer (polished stainless steel bezel, reads to 1,000°F) keeps you honest without requiring a separate probe. An optional digital thermometer with meat probe is available for those who prefer precision readouts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe double-walled hood is spring-assisted and opens to 90 degrees, which means it stays where you put it. The back-lit comfort touch control knobs sit at a 41° angle — a small ergonomic detail that matters more than it sounds after the tenth time you're adjusting heat mid-cook. Overall dimensions are 33.5 inches wide by 32.5 inches deep by 26 inches tall, with a cut-out requirement of 32 inches wide by 19.5 inches deep by 11.5 inches tall. The grill weighs 190 pounds, so factor that into your installation planning.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAn optional infrared searing burner can be added in the left-hand position, and the A540I is compatible with the full range of Fire Magic rotisserie accessories. If your enclosure is combustible, Fire Magic recommends insulating liner model #23130-50 (sold separately). Additional optional accessories include drip tray liners, a vinyl cover, and a 1-hour timer.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe exterior is 304 stainless steel throughout — the same alloy used in commercial kitchen equipment — which handles heat, moisture, and the general indignity of outdoor life without complaint.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e63,000 BTU total output from three
