That will do the job.

 

Great lanterns very reliable had one for years till it died

Left it at the rear wheel of the pickup one night to cool down after fishing it was fatally reversed over

 

I found one of these at a car boot sale for very little money in mint condition, the lady who sold it to me said the flames on initial start up scared the life out of her so she never tried lighting it again. I use holts brake cleaner as fuel , instant light and also very bright, what's not to like.

 

At last someone else that uses Holts brake cleaner! I used to tell people about it, but no one seemed to take any notice so I stopped bothering LOL
