Here is my Hasag No. 102. It was bought from Adelaide, South Australia (where a lot of interesting old lamps turn up). As there is only one other in the Reference Gallery (@pitu), I have included a lot of photos. This is the globe that came with it. The brownish streaks are rust marks. I am reluctant to handle this glass very much as I would hate to break it! Unlike @pitu's lamp (see link above) my "heat shield" does not have any Hasag markings. This ring around the flame spreader does not transport fuel. It is bolted on the the vapouriser and burner (see below). This also appears to be a different flame spreader than @pitu's. This Hasag No.102 has both a control cock and an integrated pricker mechanisms that works on an eccentric pushing a needle up and down through the vapouriser (se below). Note that this lantern came without control wheels. I will make new one (eventually). This Hasag N0. 102 comes with a standard pump and NRV, as well as a filler cap with a check valve that can be pumped. The components: Standard "Primus-type" NRV for the bottom of the pump tube. Pump with locking mechanism (as it came with a post factor screw for the lock) Filler cap with check valve (can be pumped). Burner system: Note the ring that surrounds the flame spreader/mantle. The pricker wire is 0.16mm. The control spindle; and the remnants of the control wheels. The wing nut was a former owner's attempt to make a control wheel. I did not disassemble the control mechanism for the pricker/shaft. Note this great little (original) addition to the pricker mechanism (it slides up and down). It is a hollow brass tube that fits over shaft that the pricker needle screws into. I used it to shield the pricker when replacing the vapouriser. The shielded pricker sits inside the shaft, and the shaft slides in through the brass gauze filter sitting inside the vapouriser. This mechanism, whether intended or not, is a good way of not catching the pricker needle on the brass gauze. [Because the vapouriser has to be screwed into the burner before re-assembly, it gets a bit awkward putting everything back together]. Two part hood(vent). Frame/cage. Heat shield (bottom of the frame/cage) As it came: I have posted some fettling notes on this lantern here (and will post more later this week): Hasag: Removal of generator/vapouriser I must say, this is a fabulous lantern and I'm a very lucky fellow to have got my hands on it. Now what I need is a user globe/chimney for it (so that I can store the other globe in a safe somewhere!); and I will ponder what to make the control wheels out of. Cheers Tony
An excellent photo essay befitting this rare lantern, Tony! For the control wheels, you could look around for pieces of Tufnol or similar SRBP material.
@WimVe Yes. There is brass gauze inside the vapouriser. I did not remove it. But I did clean with carburettor cleaner. Cheers, Tony
Excellent find Tony! love the pictures. You might want to try ceramic hob/stovetop cleaner for the globe, it is very mild and has been very effective for me in the past Rgds
