Alex, get yourself a Radius 119, and you will think that this 'silent' Optimus 930 is the fire brigade approaching... Not to mention Primus 981,...
Well spent last day in freedom! Perhaps I should light up a lamp too, because today is actually the first day of my holiday, so now I have a...
If you gently tap the lever back on its taper, that might be sufficient to hold it. You just need to be moderate when tightening the gland so it...
Jeremy, that lever sit on a taper. That means that you need a bit of a force to remove the lever, but seldom very much. But it must be straight...
Absolutely. Will fix it in the morning when at a real computer. I wouldn't really call it masterclass, though. But it's absolutely a fairly decent...
That is no point. One report is sufficient. Duplicate reports on the same subject is just annoying on 'our side', so to speak.
The picture with the dis-assembled preheater for the 1081 in this post? Yes, sometimes it's true as they say; a Picture says more than a thousand...
Title amended, but left the 102 remark in your post in order to explain the following comments.
Why complicate things if Hytta only takes some measly 5 EUR for a glass that fit and look pretty close to the original?
That one is also similar to the shape most Radius 107 seems to have used. Atleast I more often see that type compared to the larger spherical...
No, a Tilley onion globe is much larger than the one this little tiny Radius use. Also, it doesn't have the three little tabs that are needed to...
Just search for "carbide" or "carbide lamp", and you will see that there already are much posted about acetylene lamps: Carbide lamps
Possibly, but we need some more input to make that move. As Tony pointed out in a post after yours, Molitor is listed under Germany in the PLC,...
It's a fairly rare lantern, so it was better placed in the reference gallery. And the pictures were better than many others in the reference...
I have used glasses from the ceramic holders of old fuses, as seen in this post on the same topic. I doubt that you had the same standard in the...
Her!? Isn't a lantern a "He"? At least it is to me, and always has been... It's similar to how you name boats; tug boats, Ice breakers, etc.,...
I see three wires, so I assume - and hope - that you have the entire lamp well connected to the ground.
What an interesting modification. It's like someone has been inspired by the Standard 102 from Høvik Verk - a Primus 1020 setup with a Preston...
The red lid allows you to reach in with a match or lighter to light the quick-start. It's present on the kerosene lanterns with this frame too,...
As already said; impossible to tell by a photo where they are positioned in totally different distances from the lens. It might perhaps have been...
Separate names with a comma.
