MAK trips my GFI

My MAK (and my Memphis) trip the GFIs on BOTH my outdoor outlets during startup. I think they are 15 amp GFIs. They trip 2-3 times after about 3-5 minutes before they stabilize and begin to heat up. Any idea why?

The igniter is the reason, I believe you still have the old version that we had quite a few issues with in the beginning. To test just unplug the igniter from the circuit board and start the grill, if it doesn't trip then you know for sure. The MAK draws less than 2 amps during start up and 75 watts while running.
We will send you out a new one to fix the problem :)
