The Coleman Lantern is a line of pressure lamps first introduced by the Coleman Company in 1914. This led to a series of lamps that were originally made to burn kerosene or gasoline. Current models use kerosene, gasoline, Coleman fuel or propane and use one or two mantles to produce an intense white light.
The G.I. pocket stove is 8 + 1 ⁄ 2 inches (220 mm) high and 4 + 1 ⁄ 2 inches (110 mm) in diameter, and weighs about 3 pounds (1.4 kg). It was designed to burn either leaded or unleaded automobile gasoline (sometimes referred to as "white gasoline" or pure gasoline, without lead or additives).
The Dakota fire pit is an efficient, simple fire design that produces little to no smoke. [1] Two small holes are dug in the ground: one for the firewood and the other to provide a draft of air. Small twigs are packed into the fire hole and readily combustible material is set on top and lit.
Gas stoves today use two basic types of ignition sources, standing pilot and electric. [21] A stove with a standing pilot has a small, continuously burning gas flame (called a pilot light) under the cooktop. [21] The flame is between the front and back burners. When the stove is turned on, this flame lights the gas flowing out of the burners.
An alternative to the pilot light is a system to create a high voltage electrical arc or spark between two electrodes, in order to light the gas flowing to the burner. Fail-safe design for such a system requires the burner flame to be detected by passing an electric current through the flame, which is received by the flame rectification circuit ...
An incandescent gas mantle, gas mantle or Welsbach mantle is a device for generating incandescent bright white light when heated by a flame. The name refers to its original heat source in gas lights which illuminated the streets of Europe and North America in the late 19th century.
A prominent product is the Coleman Lantern, a series of pressure lamps that were originally made to burn gasoline. Current models use Coleman fuel or propane and use one or two gas mantles to produce an intense white light. In the past, the company also produced a range of cooking stoves and domestic irons.
The ascending tubes and descending tubes are at right angles to one another. Primus Stove components. To light the stove, the user pours a small amount of alcohol into a circular "spirit cup" just below the burner and lights it to heat the burner assembly. When it is hot, the user pressurizes the tank by means of a small hand pump integrated ...
