    Welcome to the club of pressure lantern operators.
    Lit lantern looks great.

    It certainly is, got an 246b thats waiting on parts then see if I can relieve the father in law of his rusty Guardsman, temporarily obviously ;), there's also rumoured to be an "indoor" one as well?

    @Steve Broughton An indoor lamp? That could be interesting! Please do keep us nosey buggers up to date with what you find.
    I’m guessing you’re now infected with the lampitus?

    The info was from the mother in law the only thing I can think of is this great big ugly pink monstrosity that's sat on the piano but I think it's one of those ones with a wick?
