Cooker needing beam of light to get very hot (7)

I believe the answer is:

rayburn

'cooker' is the definition.
(type of stove)

'beam of light to get very hot' is the wordplay.
'beam of light' becomes 'ray' (synonyms).
'to get very hot' becomes 'burn' (become very hot).
'ray'+'burn'='RAYBURN'

'needing' is the link.
