Aladdin R-150 Mantles Lamps

アラジンランタン用に購入 灯りに癒されてます。

I love my Aladdin Lamps but the mantles are fragile. I have purchased mantles several times in the past and some have been inferior and have not lasted very long. These particular mantles appear better than most and give out very good light. Time will tell, however, how long their life is.

Last bought this in 2013 since when they have doubled in price, now 20 quid each! Aladdin lamps burn with a very hot blue flame which leaves little smell from combustion products but gives hardly any light so the mantle glows white hot and emits the light instead and acts as an after-burner to clean up any missed combustion products, result is an odourless very bright lamp. Mantles are it’s Achilles heel, super fragile and so expensive now as to make it almost a museum piece, which is a pity really as they are good lamps.

These mantles are excellent. Be sure to follow the directions when using.

the cost is very high.
