    Hello everyone,
    I am seeking clarification about some Tilley burners I have in my possession. Some have a knurled ring around the mixing tube (as per 211) while I have two others which are just smooth. Can anyone clarify which belongs to which model please?
    Cheers

    The smooth ones are later. That type generally are from 1960s and later lanterns. ::Neil::

    Thanks Neil.
    You have confirmed my suspicion. I have two X246A's and can now match the burners to them.
    Thanks for the help.
