Well I've got this old heater and never really figured it out. It's a "therm'x safety heater model 30C" (red and cream coloured). My google search found some for sale and it looks like it uses white gas/camp fuel but I don't even know how you would light it??? I believe it's a catalytic tent heater, it is a little larger than a 1 gallon paint can, has a mushroom/dome sized top covered in what appears to be asbestos with a wire screen over top of it. This top screws onto the base where the fuel goes.

So....can anybody help me out?

Confirm:
fuel
how to light
safety precautions
good/bad
other?
