One lantern wick burns for approximately two weeks under normal conditions, with normal lantern fuel, such as kerosene, citronella oil, paraffin and Lamp Oil. A fully fueled lantern burns for approximately three evenings or ten hours continuously, if burned at a medium flame.
Lamps vary in their capacity to hold fuel depending on the lamp design.
Larger lanterns hold up to six ounces of fuel and the smaller ones hold between one and four ounces proportionately. Vermont Oil Lanterns are designed to be very fuel efficient, so if there is ever a question of shortages of fuel, you will be glad you own a Vermont Oil Lantern. One quart of standard lantern fuel will last you up to two weeks under normal usage. Kerosene can also be burned in your Vermont Oil Lantern, but it does have a slight odor. Large quantities of Kerosene can be purchased through a local garage or farmers outlet.
