<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>NOT PARTICULARLY. On an isdlands off the
coast of Maine in about 1948 my father bought and installed a kerosene
powered Electrolux.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>It was still operating in the late mid 1980s. The
burner was actually from an Alladdin lamp and if kept dressed</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>and clean produced little smell. Of course much of
our lighting was by Alladin lamp as well so smell may not </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>have been noticed. Most of the ground floor was
trimmed in a off white ivory so discoloration was not very noticeable
either.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>However having spent 20 year fueling and trimming
the wick as part of my chores I can advise it was neither very smelly or
smoky. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>In fact it was an increadible simple reliable and
long lasting machine. It probaly will be inpossible to design build and sell a
machine</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><BR></DIV>Hi All,
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>A link to a site explaining the operation of the "gas fridge".
Originally powered by a small gas flame, no moving parts, commercially
developed by Electrolux company for LPG operation - and still available for
those off grid or for camping/recreational vehicles.</DIV>

<DIV>The paraffin version will use a small kerosene flame - but without a
vapouriser like a Primus stove, I imagine that this might be smoky and
smelly.</DIV>
