We can certainly help in looking at it if you could post a picture or two.:lol:
You are really fortunate to be able to net in that baby.
Would it really glow with that green luminescence on its own?:lol:
Getting any of these Classics to work well is very satisfying on its own. Tilley lanterns are among the legacy products of the United Kingdom....
