On average, how long will a good Koehler 209 safety lamp burn with a full tank of naptha? How about their bigger older brothers with the larger fuel tanks?
Thanks,
Scott

The "experts" can have the last word, but as I understand they were good for a shift plus. So 9 - 10 hours.

Scott, Iagree with Doug. The lamps should last a shift when full. At minimum 8 hours plus some.
