If this goes thru twice I'm sorry. Having troubles posting
I have this burner and wonder if you can tell me if it is from WWI or WWII
any values, and do I have the right name for it?
it does work
-
Are you thinking it was used in the military ?? Or just from that time period !! What exactly does it say on it ??
-
yes I did think military
the only marking says enders made in germany
-
These are many of these online !! Listed as a camp stove made in the 50`s and are still used worldwide !! Not military that I could find !!
-
wow there's a perfect example of just repeating what you're told.
At least it looks like it went thru an army.
thank you for your help

Enders started to make petrol-fuelled camping stoves in 1954. They were in 1959 taken over by Turm; various models were still sold labelled as Enders until 1962. Your 'Benzin Baby 9063' was made for civilian use only - Enders did produce some models for the army, but all of them were painted in olive green :)

From what I read,, they are well loved and still selling for around $50. Sure would be handy for a fish cooker creekside and small and easy to pack !! They will use Coleman or unleaded gas as fuel so they say !! Personally I would stick with Coleman fuel !! I think its quite a find !!

again I thank all for great info.
