I recently posted a thread about a problem with my Tilley R1 heater . It was burning very badly indeed in spite of hours of fettling and new seals etc . I searched the internet in desperation looking for inspiration and luckily I found this forum . I was amazed at the number of replies I had . Such interesting and helpful ideas . Along the way , I learned a lot about these fascinating pressure lamps and heaters . I had no idea that there were so many other enthusiasts out there . Finally , thanks especially to (Shed man... Steve) who very kindly was able to supply me with a new burner and Vaporiser , I completed the job . The R1 is now superb . I thought it only right to thank everyone who contributed to my thread . I do hope in the future to maybe offer a little advise to others , now I have gained a little knowledge about these amazing devices . I can only hope that others with similar problems to mine , will chance upon on this site . They will not be disappointed !! Many thanks from Noel
