Tilley TC 549

I have only had this out twice!
Thought I would give it a burn and add some pictures for reference

 

An interesting and rare item, thanks for posting.

 

Thanks Henry, not the best looking heater! But it throws out a fair bit of heat, I think if Tilley had done a bit more r&d it might of had a future!

 

A lucky find indeed!

 

Very nice example and appreciate your presenting it. Wonder if these made it to Australia? In any case that fount looks like it can store enough kero for a fleet of 'guardsman'. Must burn for a few days straight.

 

So that’s what they look like!
No pumping eh? ..Get the toasting fork out

 

That’s got to be a rare beast! Thanks for sharing, doubt I’ll ever see another...
