We bought one of these a couple of years ago after reading reviews on here. We like the lamp and it seams to do the job of fending off the mossys.

I need to order some more tablets,oil and wick. I cant get on their website. Does anyone now if they are still in business or where i can get these bits from? Thanks.

Hi Wilber, I seem to remember reading on another thread that the clearlight manufacturer is no longer trading? but even so you can readily purchase replacement parts from a variety of places (probably cheaper too!).

We use citronella oil in the lantern which you can get in a variety of places including B&Q and Morrisons and it's only a couple of quid for a litre bottle. I think this is pretty much the same stuff as what the clearlight manufacturer used.

In regards the tablets I again remember reading a thread on here a few months ago saying that the tablets are the same ones that you use for the standard electric plug in mosquito killers. They can be purchased from Boots and many other high street retailers. I would guess a suitable replacement wick can be picked up easily in any general DIY store

Hope this helps,

Steve

Great lamps, they really do work! Shame if the chap has gone out of business as he was really helpful when I purchased mine, rushing it out in the post as I was going away.

As above we now use normal Citronella oil from B&Q and the tablets from Boots. They work just as well, never had to replace the wick though!
