Petromax HK500 High Pressure Lamp Brass

Description

The Petromax HK500 is probably the most famous kerosene lamp in the world. With its impressive light output of over 400 watts, it combines unique strong light technology with an elegant, nostalgic design. Since its invention in 1910, the Petromax lamp has illuminated every darkness.

Weather-resistant and reliable, the robust HK500 lamp not only fascinates globetrotters and outdoor fans, but is also used by aid organizations and armed forces worldwide. Thanks to the highly heat-resistant borosilicate glass cylinder made by Schott, wind and weather cannot harm this reliable light source.

The Petromax lamp is the result of a simple but fascinating principle: Petroleum is fed under pressure into a carburettor, the vaporising fuel reacts in a mantle impregnated with fluorescent salts to produce a bright, warm light. To ensure that this principle works perfectly, the lamp, which consists of over 200 individual parts, is still assembled by hand.
