I highly recommend this book and the other books in the series\u003c\/i\u003e. - totallyfrozen \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e● Kerosene Pressure Lanterns is Book 6 of our Non-Electric Lighting Series. Lanterns that use mantles produce light on par with electric lights. And KEROSENE mantle lanterns have an advantage over Coleman-fuel lamps in that kerosene is more generic, more widely available. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e● The book has four main sections - \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e(1) It describes six different Coleman models, old and new, made specifically for kerosene. Collector items (expensive) and orphans (no spare parts) are ignored. The emphasis is on practical, day-to-day lighting. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e(2) It gives the specifics on converting nine different Coleman gas lanterns to kerosene (what generator to use, etc.). \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e(3) It explains Petromax lanterns, a pre-World War II German design. Today, world-wide, there are actually more Petromax lanterns (and Petromax clones) in existence than Coleman. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e(4) And it explains Aladdin lamps, kerosene lamps that use a mantle but are not pressurized. Aladdins are over a hundred years old and a new model was recently introduced - the first new model in 50 years  \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e● Kerosene Pressure Lanterns contains 25,000 words, 168 B7W illustrations, and is 155 pages long. It's available in Kindle eBook format as well as paper. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e● AND - oh yes  - this book identifies eleven different lantern models that, given the right generator-mantle combo, will operate on \u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003ediesel\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e fuel. That alone is worth the price of admission  \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e● If you picture yourself being forced to live off-grid for an extended period of time, then THIS is the book you need. You don't have to cook supper or fix the car or deliver a baby by the light of a candle. You can have light equivalent to a 50 or 100 or 200 or 300-watt electric bulb. Pressurized kerosene lanterns come from another day and age but are known, established, reliable technology. This book is not artsy-fartsy. It's nitty-gritty. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e★★★ \u003cb\u003eReader Feedback: \u003c\/b\u003e \u003ci\u003eI have owned several kerosene mantle lamps over the last 40 years . . . if you are interested  in kerosene mantle lamps], then I don't know of a better source of information\u003c\/i\u003e. - PLM \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e● This is an 8-book series.
