Hey @TerryD did you ever find a 242 fount? I just put an ISO/WTB add on the CCF for myself. I ran across all the parts to one minus the fount so figured I'd ask..

Looking for a painted one. I'm just looking to build a runner, not a show piece. As long as it's mostly green and clean inside, I'd be good with it.
Right on, I'm in the same boat. I'll keep an eye out for something affordable that'll work. The OCP website has a nickle one right now for 32$ so I'm hoping I can pick a cpl up around the 20$ price point..

So.. got a cpl that may work, if you can handle a dent or drill out a cpl new screw holes.. Lemme know and I'll see what he wants for them. He's got a nickle one that I'm going to ask about. Screenshot_20240203_185935_Chrome.jpgScreenshot_20240203_185948_Chrome.jpg

I think the 46 is closer to age of what I have. I don't mind the dent but don't want the messed up pump bore. What's he asking?

I inquired yesterday about all three, telling him I was torn on picking a green one. Waiting on a reply. I'll let ya know, probably today sometime.

Picked up a Solar LED Lantern from Costco awhile ago.. Tossed outside.. fully charged.
( DURACELL 2000 Lumen Power Outage LED lantern, )

So Lets test it..
Plugged in my Cellphone Dead taken about 3.5 hours To fully charge..

Has USB ports for Charging and Charging Lantern with shore power.

Lantern started at 5 Blue lights. Ended with two Blue lights indicating charge remaining.
Sat in sunshine for two days.. Up to 3 Blue lights out of 5.. 3 Days in sunshine should Fill Battery Tanks. Should??


Okay not really made for charging things, like it said was. But if power is out and sun is shinning With Sunshine in high orbit.. Yea got no choice and time. ;-). Winter When sunshine is lower in the Hemisphere ( Earth is not FLAT!!). Solar sucks.

Had to try it.. Do have other means of Lanterns.. Like Fossil FUEL. 100% works!!. ;-)

Cool, haven't seen those before. They're trying to get away from white gas.

Would be great for a Gift. three days in sun.. 4 Bars.. gave up.. Plugged it into shore power. Solar panel is great for looks not real world use. Unless stuck on Little island..

Will test at camp.. See if it survives.. Not worthy of having.. if gonna use it in real world use.. :)
