[VAC] Re: Propane lamps
I believe we've had much discussion on the use of the installed propane lamps,
but not since I had a chance to use mine!
Last season I used mine on many nights! It was great to run that lamp instead
of using the battery. I rarely plug in.
There was plenty of light, and a white noise. It had a familiar aire to it...I
guess reminding me of the old pumping models.
It had a pleasing sound, and yes, delivered heat.
Quite a bit on those hot muggy nights.
I also carried extra...whatchamacallits...because they certainly would vibrate
to pieces in transit. Mantels!!
I think when I remount the fixture, on my forward bukhead, I will try some softer
rubber type mounts.
My .02 cents...I endorse the propane lamp.
