    Hi all,
    Few days ago I received EFAR 608 made in INDIA, I suppose that working on kerosene but I see that there are various types of fuel that it can be used.
    How can I be sure for which fuel is intended?

    Thanks in advance! 1355138608-EFAR.jpg

    Hello

    As far as I know Efar is a brand of F. Racek who exported all kind of lanterns to India. I got a Efar stormlamp from Chalwyn, model Tempest. I know there are Efar oli lamps too. I'm sure you will get more info from others on this forum.

    The correct brand name is EFAR 608. The 608 is not a model number but part of the registered brand name in India. The other brand is EFAR 609 which is the German registered name. They are all kerosene lanterns. ::Neil::

    Now is the time to try it light, I just need to find mantles.
    I only have coleman mantles No.1111 will it be OK for the test?

    I mostly use Coleman mantles on everything. A 1111 will probably work fine. ::Neil::
