    I got a Veritas P 350 that's missing the pre heater cup which originally
    was issued with the lamp. Though it's running on gas, I want the lamp
    to have one again. OCP offers a coleman 237 pre heater cup which might
    fit.
    To know this I'd like to ask an owner of a Coleman 237 to measure the diameter
    of either the generaror or/and the inner cup opening.
    The P350 generator diameter is 9 mm.
    Any help is appreciated.
    Some pics are following.

    The generator for the Coleman 237 is a shade under 3/8" in American or about 9.5mm. The bore of the spirit cup is, of course slightly wider.

    Cheers

    Thanks a lot, that's good news. I'm going to order
    a Coleman 237 cup to complete the lamp.
