And I see that its vaporizer has the fin inwards as described in the patent, and as shown in the 1953 document: [ATTACH] [ATTACH] Below are 2...
...just read further through the documents. They even mention all the same technical details, e. g. the bottom valve of the vaporizer (even for...
Hi @Adolfo , I found a document from 1951 which lists Aida 1250, 1350, and 1500, and another document from 1953 which lists 1250N, 1350N, and...
In my collection I have found an 826 which also has the Fanal batch. This lantern has a vaporizer without the fin too. Unfortunately, the...
That isn't necessarily the case. However, thin vaporizers are easier to preheat, especially with simply a match or the preheater torch which can...
@Adolfo You can find the patent from 1953-04-13 Wim mentioned online here under this link. Just klick on "Original document" in the menu at the...
Hello @Camp numao Unfortunately I have not seen any information on the 523 yet. But according to some of its features I assume that it is meant...
Your questions are already answered above: Regarding the dimensions just read the first post: The outer diameter is not that important, just...
ČEPE is mentioned in Neil's PLC. The lantern is a labelled AIDA 214, possibly from/for Czechoslovakia. Unfortunately most of the parts are not...

There are similar arrangements on many other lanterns, such as Hasag and Phoebus that I've come across. The pump rod seems to be machined...
The air gap between jet and mixing tube looks a bit small to me. The flame in the picture with the hood mounted could indicate a rich burn...
Neil, fingers crossed that the consultant was wrong. In old age the disease doesn't progress as quickly, as I see with my father. I hope that you...
There should be a small headless screw in the ball with the lever (seen from the other side) that needs to be removed to pull the ball off the shaft.
Since the air release screw is crimped in so that it cannot get lost you will have to use some penetrating oil and gentle force to remove it.
It's terrible to hear that. All the best for Neil! He is one of the fellow collectors who has contributed the most to the knowledge we all benefit...
@Leonardo Collares That is the website of Jürgen Breidenstein, who is a well-known collector in Germany. He has extensive knowledge of Petromax...
