    Man it was hidden well. At first I found this peace upstairs and I knew it was for something but didn't know what. Then I found this hidden in a box deep in the back of the basement!!! I know it's not a lamp but some kind of portable cooking stove? One of the legs is broken off so I gotta fix it it's just solder but it's beautiful I think. Can anyone give me any information on it!!! Thanks guys!!

    Neat Solus stove!! Coleman had some items built in England, but I know little about them. You'll probably get the most help over at the Classic Camp Stove forum.

    Thanks originally I found this upstairs and I was like WTF is this? And what's it used for? and when I found this hidden deep in the basement I mean it was where the other lamps were besides the indoor table ones but it was hidden where when I cleaned out that spot I found it. And thanks for the information!! Should I repair it myself and what kinda stuff should I watch out for?

    Have a look here Coleman Solus - all models

    The stove has a silent burner attached. The inner and outer burner caps are missing.
    The Optimus Primus burner looks new. It's known as a roaring burner because it's loud. The flame ring is missing.
    The roarer will screw onto the Solus

    I looked at the pictures of one I have everything for it. Plus 3 burner heads. Are they super rare?

    The burners, if they are the same as the one in your photo (Optimus-Primus), are not “super rare”. But they are desirable.
