A very pleasant evening getting two Petromax 828's back to form. I love the initial fettle, but half the fun/battle is keeping them running. Both had failed on previous light ups. They needed a tweek to stop weeping fuel leaks and loss of pressure from the generator. 1959 BE Military 828 Lantern: Foreground BE 828, backgound 828E Nice to have both running again.
Very nice Alex. Love these original Petromax lamps. Especially the 828, the amount of light they generate is just perfect. Just like a good tilley or bialaddin. Not too bright I mean.
