    Nothing above 300CP here, thought some little kero burners would be nice in the garden tonight:

    Nice and bright lanterns. Optimus 930 for sure, but the other one.... might be a 200P

    I myself tried my recent fettle, a Anchor 909, this evening

    @Alex Smith

    Your lanterns are doing a great job of lighting the area.

    The Optimus 930 is on my wish list.

    Cheers,
    Norman

    @Matti Kucer You were correct in saying I'd a 200CP out there. The running list for tonight was: Coleman 201, Petromax 827/250Cp, Optimus 200 and Optimus 930. Nice to get them out now the weather is slightly better and the wind has died down.

    Hope your Anchor 909 ran well and you had a good evening.

    @Norman I've one and a half 930's and am always on the look out for more. They are very good looking, produce great light and run well.

    @Alex Smith - every time I see your tasteful lightups I feel remorse that I have yet to put up some brackets. Then I get distracted by the next fettle..
    Great show as ever

    @Fireexit1 Chris, thanks and take heart. It only took a year for me to mount brackets. At first it was more fun just to fettle the lanterns. Now I like playing with the light and noise they make - I am still trying to solve the question of how best to light the garden!
