It is an alcohol burner. If you will add a glass it will become a lamp, but low lighting....

Thanks. I've seen these before and wondered. It looks like you could use them in place of a sterno can.

No wick to burn away! It's sort of like a primus stove but uses only alcohol instead of paraffin with alcohol to get it started.

There is a wick inside the piece that moves up and down

@@unhippy1 ah okay 👍🏼 I can't see the advantage of this over a traditional oil lamp unless it is to use as a heater / stove for boiling water ect

I got one of these at an estate sale for $8, but it’s stuck cannot get it to move up and down. Not sure how to fix it.

How to make it

@doktaahwho8858 Жыл бұрын

Well it sucks as a lamp but might be a good stove. Yellow flame for light, or in the case of a lantern white, blue flame for a stove. This thing is somewhere in between.

Hey your right about that; it wouldn't burn very bright as a lamp !

Probably to disinfect old medical equipment

It's not a lamp. It's a burner for tests etc.

this is the heat source for an F.B. Rogers silverplate coffee urn or hot water dispenser. I know because I have one and found this video on how to use it.
