If you contact them and find out the dimensions, then you'd know. It looks like it would, though.

Nice find,

Jake.

I have sent them (Zoelser) emails queries in the past and they never replied. And in German too I might add.
Thay have some bloody good stuff though, much of it designed and built inhouse.

Oh. Perhaps their spam guard filtered it?

I always make it a point of principle never to buy anything from a company that dosn't reply to e-mail enquiries... ah well, that looked like a great but of kit as well.

I don't know whether it'd fit or not, but why would you want it to anyway?
The candles last for 9 hours *each*; that's a lot of parafin refills.
The candles go out if the lantern is toppled.
Parafin leaks, smells and smokes.

I don't mean to sound so dismissive but unless parafin is used under pressure and with a mantle I think you'd be better using the candle.
I'm open to being better informed though :)

Cheers,
Toddy

It's supposed to be good for 8 hours on a refill. I figure it may be specific to the UCO lantern though as it replaces the candle and holder in the lantern.

p.s it is depressing that I am not the only person who has nothing better to do on a friday night.

I'm sitting sewing a set of Medieval braies, reading an on-line novel, blethering to HWMBLT, sipping chilled Elderflower wine, listening to the swallows outside the windows and nipping in and out of the forum.....it's a quiet, chilled out evening :D
Cheers,

Young lady I was getting at you. I was merely thinking that hitting ones thumb with a hammer may be an unpleasant experience; but that the image of the entire population of the globe suffering the same fate instantaneously would be an appalling vista.
