Happy Anniversary and I have several lamps. Looks like a lot of people told you where to get the oil and wick. If you place the lamp in front of a mirror you will double the light it will give off. I know becasue we have several of those lamps and we NEED to use them often because we are up north where power goes out a lot!

I also saw the fuel at Walmart. I have a question if you don't mind - for those of you who use the lamp almost every day, how often to you have to re-fuel? I am putting oil in it about every other day and it can get a bit expensive! And I am not sure if it is my wicks or what but my flame is so small. Thanks again and hope you get to feeling better!
