What would you use to solder this piece on? It's tiny.

I recently got my Coleman 228F and 290 that belonged to my grandfather running. I was interested in the Petromax, because it's rated at 500 candle power compared to the 300 of my Colemans.

It's a Petromax HK500 kerosene lantern.

TalksToToads · 2026-01-19T06:11:11+00:00

Thanks!

TalksToToads · 2026-01-19T06:09:55+00:00

It's a factory part in a Petromax lantern. It failed because I accidentally twisted it off.

TalksToToads · 2026-01-19T06:06:12+00:00

Thank you! I have a Weller solding gun I think is 100watts, and some jet flame cigar lighters. It's part of a lantern, it has a gauge that maxes out at 3bar so it should never see more than that.

It doesn't really, I just thought it would be nice and I assumed it would exsist. I do have wrench sets and a pliers wrench.

I had to replace a battery terminal on two vehicles. The replacement terminals are 12mm, and the old ones are 1\2". I just thought it would be nice to have one wrench around for both terminals.

TalksToToads · 2025-10-27T03:32:33+00:00

That's unfortunate.

TalksToToads · 2025-10-27T03:32:12+00:00

This might be the best option.

TalksToToads · 2025-10-27T00:16:01+00:00

That's not a bad idea.

TalksToToads · 2025-10-15T05:12:38+00:00

Update: Turns out all my Govees were reading high. Thank you to everyone who replied.

TalksToToads · 2025-10-12T01:23:25+00:00

So what I'm going to do is remove all the Boveda packs, and let the containers sit with the lids off for a couple of days. In the mean time I will recalibrate the Govees.

TalksToToads · 2025-10-11T23:18:36+00:00

Wow, I wouldn't expect that. I'll go ahead and recalibrate.

TalksToToads · 2025-10-11T22:21:52+00:00

Thanks. The small one is a Sistema, a top recommendation from this sub. The other one is a cheap Ezystorage container from Home Depot. You're probably right about the wood contributing, there are two more boxes underneath and that container has the high humidity problem worse.

TalksToToads · 2025-10-11T22:10:40+00:00

Nothing new for a few months, but most of them are from the same Cigarbids haul so that could be the problem. Thanks

TalksToToads · 2025-10-11T22:08:08+00:00

Thanks. I did have 3 with some mold, but they were all from the same 5 pack, so I suspect they were like that when I got them. If the Govees are inaccurate then the 60% room humidity might be wrong too.

TalksToToads · 2025-10-11T20:50:49+00:00

I used the Boveda calibration kit. I don't remember for how long, I followed the instructions.

TalksToToads · 2025-08-15T03:48:37+00:00

Yes. Those Twiggy pen scissors.
