    Hi!

    Someone (sorry can’t remember who it was...) on here said...”your hooked now” a while ago. Couldn’t be more true:content:. Hook, line and sinker. Got my old 827 rapid up and running. Fetteling on a 826 but having some problems with it but I’ll prevail!
    So to get a break from my pmaxes I got myself an Optimus 930 that a fella in the neighborhood sold me “cheap”.
    Didn’t get no before pics but it was in quite good shape, just needed some cleaning and lubing and up she lit!

    Regards,
    Peter

    That's a nice lantern you have. The 930 looks nice and they tend to work well. The only thing I'm not too keen on is that the tank gets quite hot.

    Now you'll have to get some more Swedish lamps. :)

    There could be more lanterns on the island where you live than you realise.
