After replacing the broken glass and reading a bunch of stuff about people using their lanterns as cabin heaters, I have pressed the turd into service in the shop helping to supplement heat and light during my TPCE build.
Scan down though these posts to see some more burn pictures.

Something I have noticed on shut down, and am wondering if it is normal, is that on closing the valve the flame tends to dim down just before closing, and then on closing lights back up and burns for what seems like a moderate time before burning out. Is this normal?
Thanks for looking. I'm loving the lantern. It just adds a really nice ambiance (and a couple of degrees of warmth to a cold shop!).
