My wife and I were given an Aladdin lamp for our wedding nearly 50 years ago. We lived out in the “bush” and had no electricity so it was a very useful gift. I keep it maintained just in case the power goes out but I had forgot how to light the lamp so I checked out this video for a refresher on how to light our lamp.

Good video for beginners. Small additional comment which I'm syure all experianced users would agree with. When turning down, do it in three stages. Full to low light, then to blue flame (no light) . Always ensure the last stage is blue, or the lamp can smell when cooling due to unburned gasses. As mentioned in the video rapid heating and cooling shortens the life of the mantle, typically causing the frame to crack then buckle and disintergrate. After 50 years and three previous generations of using these we learn the hard expensive way!!
@DarkLighterproductio6 жыл бұрын
I have yet to read or hear someone suggest turning the lamp up to full brightness slowly to warm the chimney slowly. Sudden hot flame can and will break the Lox-On chimney. Even more important to do this with other center draft (which the Aladdin is) Ryo burners.

After a few power cuts I tried a Tilley lamp which gives more light but is noisy and constantly needs pumping to keep pressurised, they do give an incredible amount of light though. Then I tried some hurricane lamps which are silent and easy to use but don't produce a lot of light. Finally bought one of these aladin lamps they're almost perfect, silent, don't need constant pumping up and throw out a lot of very white light. They can be a bit finicky until you get used to them (big tip - never run them at maximum) but I will keep mine forever, you just never know when you'll need it.

Hello, I bought my first Aladdin Lamp about 35 years ago for my mother. Cost about $80.00 at that time. My second lamp I got for myself a few years later for about $250.00. Near as I can tell from the number on the knob is it's a type 26. The chimney broke, and it needs a new mantle. Other than that its fine. I just bought a new lamp this week. The knob reads Maxbright 500. Any advise anyone can give me to get the first one back up and running will be appreciated. The modern mantles are far more fragile then what they used to be. The old ones contained thorium, which is radioactive, but gave the mantles a certain toughness. I made the mistake of burning the mantle on my new lamp unprotected, so have to replace it. I love these lamps, and in the event of a power outage, there is nothing better for emergency lighting. I also like them for a bit of atmosphere during holidays. My experience with these, pay attention to the lamp. I have experienced flames shooting out the top of the chimney all the way to the ceiling. Also, never put your hand over the chimney. The heat coming out of there is incredibly high, and you will burn yourself before you can blink. That being said, it's still the best lamp you can have in an emergency, and as I said before, I love using these to ad some atmosphere on major holidays. Just be careful okay?

@bigskunk8015 ай бұрын
I use a 23 burner just because of that. 23 burners fit all glass lamps. They burn great without a lot of adjustment to continue burning correctly. You can also lower the brightness to stop soot from gathering in either burner. Soot usually forms when wick is too high. Also a blue flame is needed to burn clean. After lighting wait for a minute and lower wick and the flame should be small and blue if you get much yellow flames try cleaning the wick. It’s the not blue flame that makes soot.

@DarkLighterproductio6 жыл бұрын
The silk mantle, which is treated to cause bright white incandescence, is the real source of light from an Aladdin lamp. Roughly the light output of a 60 watt bulb, about 800 lumins, and much whiter than a standard kerosene flame. (About 3000 K.) The even trimming of the wick is paramount to good light output. An uneven flame will cause a portion of the mantle to not illuminate and will also cause sooting of the mantle where the flame is too high.

@bigskunk8015 ай бұрын
You clean the wick when the blue flame doesn’t go completely around wick when you light it on both sides. Flame should spread completely around wick within a minute or so. When cool To clean use an Aladdin wick cleaner tool. Remove flame spreader from center raise wick about 6mm above burner and insert cleaning tool in center, gently push down and turn back n forth to clean usually doesn’t need much. In emergency just lightly scrape wick horizontally with a knife where it’s not lighting. You don’t need to trim wick but if it comes apart with a few threads cut thread close with razor or very sharp knife.

@bigskunk8015 ай бұрын
After 6 years you probably have it figured out. In case you don’t. Your wick probably needs cleaning. Get an Aladdin wick cleaning tool. The ideal flame is a blue flame. After lighting wick let warm up for a minute or so. Lower wick until it gets down like you are turning it off. The flame should be completely around wick and be blue. After you see the blue flame put gallery on. If you have much yellow flames you need to clean or replace wick or soot will form without clean blue flames.

I’m not sure what you mean by. Open. Sometimes you can soak burner in vegetable oil and it will loosen the crudd and be usable. Usually if your burner is in bad shape it’s cheaper to just buy a new 23 burner. If you have a glass Aladdin lamp and you want to use it, get a new 23 burner off the internet or eBay. You can get some kerosene and a mantle at the same time. The new burner n mantle will have instructions for use.

Question: I recently bought a log cabin in the woods, and of course, I got extremely interested in oil lamps/lanterns. I tried a conventional inexpensive lantern, and found that even with very refined oil, I have to have an open window, or the smoke is noticeable. Because the Aladdin mantle seems almost like an afterburner, it seems like an Aladdin would burn much cleaner. But I've never tried one. Can anyone provide a hands-on validation or debunking of my theory? Thanks! --Scott

Over time, any "oil" lamp will produce soot and a small amount of vapor which will make the soot somewhat greasy. Indeed, this was the reason for "spring cleaning" in times past. Use your Aladdin lamp(s) as much as you want, but be aware that cleaning day is coming.

I have two Aladdin lamps that I keep for emergencies and for decoration because they are very pretty lamps, I have not used them yet and I have not burned the mantle in yet but I can do that when needed, when I was a kid we only had lamps and the best one was an Aladdin in the sitting room (1950's), it hung from the ceiling and my dad was the only one allowed to touch it. These days it's hard to get spares especially here in the UK and so damned expensive so I leave the mantle as it is less likely to be damages before it's burned in.
