GuillaumeT (X) Ireland 21:57 Nov 20, 2013  Does this electric burner replicate the design of the Bunsen burner in some way? The Bunsen burner is only one type of laboratory gas burner. Richardson Lisa France ASKER ok 21:45 Nov 20, 2013  Well that's what I thought too, but wasn't sure which one was right? Maybe I could go with electric bunsen burner? I think electric burner is too general as Bertrand says. Automatic update in 00:

Peer comments on this answer (and responses from the answerer) neutral  Bertrand Leduc: A bit too general IMHO, you can have an electric burner in your living room or in your kitchen. 5 mins   -> I thought the context would make it obvious that it was a burner designed for lab use. "laboratory electric burner" would fit the bill too.
