Book 7

This is Book 7 in The Non-Electric Lighting Series. The series is aimed at people who want to survive whatever it is Mother Nature throws at us - blizzards, blackouts, or Carrington events. Lanterns that use mantles produce light on par with electric light bulbs. And PROPANE mantle lanterns have advantages over liquid-fueled lanterns. For one thing, propane does not degrade in storage. You can store it for one year or fifty years. It's still the same stuff. Hook it up and it works. What other fuel can you say that about? And propane is convenient compared to liquid fuels. No messy spills. No stinky rags. Certainly that's worth something. This book covers safety (from crystal meth to carbon monoxide), the refilling of one-pounders from 20-lb. BBQ tanks, long-term storage of one-pounders, and oodles of real-life comments from readers. Much of the material appeared as a 5-part series in the blog "Backdoor Survival." As one reader commented after the third installment, "Outstanding article One of the BEST, I've ever read or seen on any preparedness website. Well Done (and thank you )" Hmm. Recommendation-wise, I'm not sure what I can add to that.
