Lamp from a colleague collection- Mr.King Lerttrakul. He ran this light with the kerosene. What's the difference between D66 and 466?
They are almost identical, the main difference is the height although they may have different burners. We know the D66 has a "D" type burner but the later catalogues do not show the burner for 466. D66 dates from 1912 to maybe around 1914 and is 700mm tall. 466 is near enough identical but later from 1916-1918 and is slightly shorter at 635mm tall and possibly a simpler burner. Here are the two burners from the 1912 AGM catalogue. C type is used in P66 and D type in D66. It may also be the burner used in the later 466 but I can't confirm that. ::Neil::
Neil, Thank you for your info. This's pictures of the burner. Seem not the same as the burners from the 1912 AGM catalogue. Can it be the 466's?
That is certainly different with the generator coiled around the mantle tube. Looks like a modified D type burner. I have not seen this one before. Could it be a standard D burner with a locally made replacement generator? ::Neil::
I have never seen a burner like that before. I still think these are locally made modifications. Lamps like this which were a long way from the factory and available authentic spares were sometimes fettled by a local guy who designed and made his own parts. ::Neil::
