Electronic Ignition for Stovetop (w/pics)
I finally got tired enough of the piezoelectric igniter on my Atwood stovetop that I decided to replace it with a battery-powered igniter unit. You know what I’m talking about. You twist the knob; bam...

just my opinion on the oven ignigter there is a reason why the manufacture does not put one in the oven and it is because if by chance the over knob gets turned on and you don't catch in time the oven will fill with gas and then you go to lite the stove top and everything goes BOOM so just be really careful with it and check all the knobs before lighting any burners on the stove top
Not true. The oven gas valve will not turn on regardless of the knob position unless it senses heat from the pilot light. The pilot then lights the main burner when called for by the setting of the knob with feed back from the temp sensor. The above mod only makes it more convenient to light the pilot. Electronic ignition without a pilot for the oven is a whole different ball game. Nothing in this mod changes the original operation of the stove or oven; it is just more convenient and reliable.
NOT True If You turn oven knob to turn on pilot it will fill oven with gas I know because this has happened to me. Good thing we smelled it before we lit the stove. That is why when I modded mine it does not have one in the oven.
