Oil Lamps

[ComputerGuy]

Any suggestions and links. We have a tone, 200 or so emergency candles, but looking to move up to oil lamps, kerosene lamps.

Please explain the fifs and please offer any suggestions.

Thank you

I have posted on this before. I have an old one from Grandma and one from wally world, they both work great. If bringing the wife on board with them is an issue I used the colored and scented oils as a decor perk which she jumped on immediately. Took a bit of rasing from some folks on here who pretend they aint wife whooped too. LOL
Gordon looks to be on a good track too. Nice sight!

Thanks. The wife is about 40% on board. She is still on denial on some things. I still need the kids, with their families on board.

I understand. Alot of my candles are scented and decorative some even crackle like a fireplace. Heck I don't care as long as I got light when I need it. If thats what it takes then so be the great "compromise". Same on the food if we can stock corn cause it was on sale and she wants kudos for the great buy then I'm in on the ego stroking, just keep them shelves filled.

This should keep you busy for a little while. These lamps are affordable and may even please the wife :)

We usually buy the #330.

Assuming whale oil is sorta hard to come by, are there any indoor friendly lamps I can use without asphyxiating myself? I have some sterno and alcohol lamps I like to use in snowcaves.

@biathlon: i believe all that are marked "lamp oil" are safe for indoor use...
