    Hi can anybody help me identify this lamp it's main body is made of alloy and it has a mark of an F on the top and 108 on the side it looks like it runs on some liquid fuel as there is a filler on the top and some sort of valve .
    It looks like the jet or mantle is missing but in all in good condition would love to no what it was used for and if I could get parts to make it work
    Thanks
    Gavin

      Thanks so it's a carbine lamp? Do we no what make ?

      Yes a carbide lamp and no I don't know who made this model. At least now you know what you have; it should facilitate your discovery of where it's from.
