Ah! You just remove it by screwing counterclockwise. In the old days they had dedicated gas burner pliers, but any suitable plier will do since...
Do you mean the drip control? The burner itself isn't adjustable. Normally the water drip is adjusted by increasing counterclockwise and...
They won't as long as they work as they are supposed to. A well tuned carbide lamp doesn't produce any soot whatsoever. And not any smell either,...
Or this. The thing is that some of the other Autolux' are (rightfully) in the gravity fed lamps gallery. I will move so they all atleast will be...
Hello Jonathan! Have you browsed the Coleman gallery here? If you see a lamp you are interested in, you can just post a private message to the...
Ah! One of my favourites. It's so damn silent! That's why I like it. Oh, well, it's just a 200CP lantern, so it shouldn't make that much noice in...
When it comes to carbide table lamps, anything is OK, so no problems there! They very often look a bit strange, with parts that don't really line...
This is indeed a rarity. I think you should consider what Wim said above - be very careful so you don't break that globe in case it's an original!...

Nicola, the post you made of yours used eBay images, and those are long gone! Can you add some new photos of your lantern to this topic? If you...
Thanks Neil.
Can you help us out with a model? That it is a Coleman is easy to guess, so I added that it the title.
The two on the first photo is even more impressive since they are working, and they sure ain´t Tilley's:lol: Nice lamps all of them anyway. Even...
Title changed.
One posibility is that it used a parchment shade, or similar. Those light weight shades with wire frames did often sit on a highly positioned rim...
Absolutely! It's up to everyone to do whatever they want with their collection. No argument there. I just don't think they should call it a...
I agree there, Nicola. And that goes for much other things you see out there where people are "restoring" items. Generally it's more a matter of...
It looks like it is broken. On a first glance, it looked normal, but at closer look, it appears that it has been a "winged" burner where the wings...
Ha! I never thought about that, but you are correct Jean. It has some similarities :content: Conny, practically all carbide lamps was made in the...
