Anyone care to discuss the advantages of various lighting methods
(a bright light enough to read a book by which would last for
many, many hours) using kerosene, white gas, batteries...


I wouldn't want a white gas lantern inside the house. The idea if it
flaring up is no fun. Propane lanterns are nice and bright.

Have you heard of kerosene mantle lamps? Aladdin is the most famous:

They are bright like the white gas and propane lamps, but burn kerosene.




How much carbon monoxide do they generate?
CO;Silent,odorless,deadly.
