So how long does a 1 1/2 gallon tank last if using everyday? A Week, a couple of weeks - month?? Appreciate depends on what and how many you are cooking for - but I have no idea if 1 1/2 gallons is a lot, or it means needing to keep another 5 gallons onboard to top up twice a week.......

I keep reading that Kerosene / Paraffin is "widely available worldwide" - but where is it usually sold? (Garages / supermarkets?) Can't say I have ever noticed it for sale - course never had to look.........and also not been to most places


Oh, nearly forgot......does a Taylors make good toast? I.e an even colour all over! and how many slices in one go!
