    Hi, and thanks for the submitting.
    I just found a fine optmus 1550/500 second han, cheap..but the inner chimney is missing..Will a petromax or some other models work, or do I have to find the exact rigtig substitute?
    Thanks in advance

    Hi Per, sorry it took a while to get back, i tried the inner casing of the Petromax on the Optimnus, it will not fit, but the Chinese Anchor fits well, so i assume most of the Petromax copies will fit, cheers

    I have seen quite a few Petromax and Optimus lamps from the Danish military that have had the inner tops swapped so some models fit.
