Thanks Garland.

I look forward to a copy of the instruction sheet.

I have a Coleman funnel w/filter that fits perfectly into the vertical
tank orifice. I also have a couple of the aluminum bottles you mentioned
too and will use them as do you.

Gratefully,
Courtney

I'm not sure if I have seen a response yet about filling the old style w/
the red "bucket" as you describe it.
I have 2 of these, and I use a 1 liter aluminum fuel bottle I got from a
camping supplier to keep the alcohol in. You can pour the alcohol in the
"tank" w/o spilling it.
I will look around because I should have the instruction sheet somewhere.
May take me a while, but in the meantime, I can tell you that the maximum
amount of alcohol that is supposed tobe in the "tank" is such that if you
stand the tank on its edge (so the base is oriented in a vertical plane), no
alcohol will run out. You don't fill it slam up.
I've never slept with it burning.

Have come into an old single burner and am considering it as a backup
source.

Opinions, caveats, advice ?

Thank you,
Courtney
