    Hello,

    Could anyone please give me a hand with this model? Is it an Austrian Phoebus? What model is it? It looks like a lamp but a see a pumping stem/knob also... :shock: Screenshot_20251202_153642_Facebook.jpg

    My guess is that someone has made a wick lamp out of the stove tank. The tank, filler and pump look very much like the standard 3 leg stove configuration.

    and the whole contraption does not make too much sense to me. It is a wick lamp nowadays but the added parts to the stove tank (spacer ring ? connecting sleeve ? look a little like parts taken from an electric lamp) rise the burner unnecessarily so the fuel wicks up further than needed, bringing less fuel to the flame.
    The differences in the color of the brass parts hint towards at least three different donors.
