<p>What are you thoughts on using oil lamps for lighting? I have several oil lamps here in the apartment that I occasionally use. This got me to thinking about what I could use oil lamps for in a van dwelling situation.<br /><br />When oil lamps are placed <strong>SAFELY</strong> in some location in a van, camper, rv, etc. do you think that it is a good viable option for lighting? The other benefit of an using an oil lamp is that the heat generated can heat the van to some degree in the cooler months of the year. This will not always be the case during extreme cold temperatures but oil lamps do generate some heat to some degree.<br /><br />Again, as long as the oil lamps are <strong>PLACED SAFELY</strong> (with a class a/b/c fire extinguisher in the vehicle) in one of our van dwelling homes do you think oil lamps are a viable option for lighting & to a lesser degree, a minor source of heat?<br /><br />I anxiously await your comments on this subject.</p>
