    I gathered together some of the butane lamp collection HERE, which @Jean J described as
    High praise, I think.

    @JEFF JOHNSON
    Campingaz 904 rechargeable butane cylinder and valve and the largest CG (RS?)

    Very kind of you Jeff, but I’ve a couple of those lanterns and several cylinders in 901/904/907 sizes, so I’m sorted.

    Much appreciated though.

    The Campingaz/Coleman Stellias certainly belt out the candelas Pete.

    As well as the directional reflector (can be raised or lowered) there’s a conical reflective heat shield on the base plate that maximises the output from the two #21 Coleman mantles. It resembles that on a Tilley SDR to some extent.

    You are welcome John and perhaps somebody will want it through time, Jeff.

    It is a very nice garden/greenery John.
    Sorry, but I am locked in "open space office" and living in block of flats, so could not resist to mention those plants :)
    all the best
