kerosene lanterns
Oil-burning light sources
Kerosene lanterns are portable light sources that burn kerosene fuel, producing a steady flame enclosed in glass.
Before electric lighting became widespread, they illuminated homes, barns, and campsites.
They remain useful during power outages and in areas without electricity: We lit the kerosene lanterns when the storm knocked out power.
