Intuitive Clamshell Design for Effortless Access
The HS-16G’s convenient clamshell design provides easy front access, allowing you to move projects in and out without a hitch.

Pristine Firing with Quartz-Encased Elements
Hot Shot knows that every detail matters in your art. The HS-16G’s elements are encased in quartz tubes, eliminating the risk of flaking and maintaining a clean, uncontaminated firing environment. This careful engineering ensures that each piece you create retains the purity and quality you envision.
Control at Your Fingertips with the Genesis Spark Controller
The HS-16G comes equipped with the Genesis Spark Controller as standard, featuring a user-friendly touchscreen interface with pre-set programs tailored to glasswork and up to 30 custom firing programs. With built-in Wi-Fi, this controller provides access to software updates, diagnostics, and the Bartlett KilnAid app, so you can monitor and adjust your kiln remotely with real-time alerts. For even more control, the TAP II Controller is available as an upgrade, offering unlimited program storage, customizable notifications, and advanced monitoring through the TAP mobile app.
Compact and Safe with Optional Stand and Cool-Touch Technology
Safety and efficiency come standard with Hot Shot. The HS-16G’s Cool-Touch technology keeps the kiln’s exterior safe to touch, making it ideal for smaller studios or high-traffic workspaces. For added flexibility, an optional stand with lockable casters is available, positioning your kiln at waist height for easier access and maximizing your workspace.
