Fire Magic Aurora A830i 46-Inch Built-In Gas/Charcoal Combo Grill
Fire MagicA830i Overview
The Fire Magic Aurora A830i is Fire Magic's only built-in combo grill, pairing a full Aurora gas grill with a separate charcoal grill in a single 46-inch unit. The gas side delivers 50,000 BTU across two cast stainless steel "E" burners over a 432 sq. in. cooking surface, while the charcoal side adds 396 sq. in. with a dedicated 26,000 BTU charcoal igniter, adjustable charcoal pan with crank handle, and slide-out ash tray. The Aurora line is Fire Magic's mid-tier collection, sharing the same cast stainless steel "E" burners, Diamond Sear cooking grids, hot surface ignition, and 304 stainless steel construction as the flagship Echelon Diamond, but at a lower price point. The trade-offs vs. Echelon are: analog thermometer only (no digital underglass option), polished trim instead of black-glass control panel, and the rotisserie backburner is a paid option rather than included.
The A830i has two separate double-walled hoods (one per cooking surface), each with its own analog thermometer and spring-assist lift. The optional infrared burner upgrade applies only to the gas side; the charcoal side is naturally aspirated. The optional rotisserie backburner is also gas-side only. Magic View Window is not available on the A830i. The grill is configurable at order time across multiple axes: fuel type (natural gas or propane), backburner with rotisserie kit (yes/no), and infrared sear burner in the left-hand position (yes/no). Choose the combination that fits your build and the matching factory-assembled SKU ships in a single carton.
