<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Ladybranch, post: 186291, member: 44&quot;]Hmmm.... I wish I&#039;d finish my research before posting.<img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/frown.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":(" unselectable="on" /> On further research have found that this burner is a Matador rather than a Kosmos. The Matador burner was an improvement on Kosmos burners. They were &quot;introduced&quot; in 1895 by Ehrich &amp; Graetz of Berlin. The big difference between the Matador and the original Kosmos burner was a flame spreader. According to the above link to milesstair on Kosmos burners, the Kosmos burner #15 is a Matador.</p><p><br /></p><p>Scroll down to about the 6th paragraph that starts &quot;About 1895, Ehrich &amp; Graetz of Berlin introduced the &#039;Matador&#039; burner, in which a flame spreader was used.&quot;</p><p><a href="http://www.milesstair.com/KOSMOS-BRENNER_LAMPS_&amp;_WICKS.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.milesstair.com/KOSMOS-BRENNER_LAMPS_&amp;_WICKS.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.milesstair.com/KOSMOS-BRENNER_LAMPS_&amp;_WICKS.html</a></p><p><br /></p><p>Again want to stress the maker of the side draft burners such as Kosmos and Matador, is not necessarily the lamp maker. Central draft burners and lamps have to be made by the same manufacturer. Scroll down the following page to the 3rd section **up** from the bottom, &quot;Important notice about kerosene-burners and lamps.&quot;</p><p><a href="http://lumiara.perso.neuf.fr/lumiara/en/keroen.htm" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://lumiara.perso.neuf.fr/lumiara/en/keroen.htm" rel="nofollow">http://lumiara.perso.neuf.fr/lumiara/en/keroen.htm</a></p><p><br /></p><p>--- Susan[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
