Valor Valiant Deluxe L50 Paraffin heater

[winchman]

Valor Valiant Deluxe L50 Paraffin heater, late 60s early 70s in excellent condition
No rust.
Whilst this is in excellent condition it does need a new wick that's why I am selling it cheap,
Paraffin is readily available and costs approx. £1 a litre
Wicks are also available from specialist retailers on line, other than the wick and paraffin they have no consumable parts so last for years.

This heater has the anti tilt safety device fitted as standard so if the heater is knocked over or tilted it will extinguish the flame immediately-A must if you have children or animals. Another good feature is the instructions for use are printed on the inside of the base,
very handy!
This is ideal emergency heat source or for the garage / shed etc
£40

Very interested. How long will it run on a litre of paraffin and how you post?

 

[daddy2coull]

Sorry, that was supposed to be WILL you post

From memory they run for about 8 hours on a litre but check on Google etc, My local Caldo garage sells Paraffin from a pump for 90P per litre, so quite cheap to run.
You will need a new wick about £10, soak the old one in WD40 for a day as it makes it easier to remove.
I would have to look in to postage as I would have to get every last drop of fuel out of it, I have posted them before, ( yes I had a collection this is the last one I am parting with)
Postage should be about £10

I'm just trying to find replacement wicks for it, but I'm struggling. Could you point me in the right direction?

Thanks
Ebay have them too or this place
base-camp.co.uk
but like the link posted above its best buying from a specialist retailer as then they know what they are talking about and you get the correct bit

I can post for £10 so £50 delivered, let me know either way please as some one else has asked for it if you don't want it.
Remember its 40 years old and will need the wick replacing, its a simple job but sometimes they are tight and have to be coaxed out, but patience pays off.
Once fitted it should last another 40 years apart from the odd wick replacement
