DHR Anchor Lamp 4" (Den Haan Rotterdam Ankerlight)

Operation overview of the DHR Anchor lamp for a yacht when at anchor.
Sorry for poor video quality was filming at night.
I know there are other anchor lamps with led etc, but I wanted one with no batteries nor one that uses the boats battery, even though there is one at the mast head. Ok I am also a bit of a traditionalist.

i just found an original DHR anchor light at a antique store in the netherlands and its a 14 inch one, i picked it up for 45 bux... it was probably used by barges as an anchor light and still has the soot inside.. such a lucky find since you can only buy these dinky ones from DHR today.

Would you recommend this lamp for inside the cabin for for late night cockpit sitting? Looks like there is not a lot of spread on the light - which makes sense for what it's designed for. Just looking for a quaint little oil lamp for on my sailboat.

If you need a TARDIS lamp these are really good, since most modern ones now use these as bases for the lamp

Still have the lamp? Want to sell it?

Hi, how do you fill these up?

[@flyingskipper]

When you have removed the tank at about 2:25 you unscrew the gallery from the tank fill, then screw the gallery back on.

What kind of oil do you use?

[@flyingskipper]

I use lamp oil as it is cleaner, you can use paraffin.

[@urielgrey]

@@flyingskipper thank you so much! I will use lamp oil :) thank you very much for this video it was really helpful and I appreciate your answering my question as well!

@flyingskipper hello sir, found your channel by searching the Net for a miniature glass chimney for my nautical oil lamp. Didn't come with one. What is the height and diameter of the glass chimney base , if you could sir? . . 🧞‍♀️ 🪔 💡 🛋 🧞‍♂️ 🪔
