The Petromax HK500 is arguably the most famous kerosene lamp in the world. With its impressive light output of over 400 watts, it combines unique high-intensity light technology with an elegant, nostalgic design. Since its invention in 1910, the Petromax high-intensity lamp has illuminated every darkness, captivating people in the process.

Weather-resistant and reliable light. The robust high-intensity lamp fascinates not only nostalgics, globetrotters, and outdoor enthusiasts with its bright light, but it is also used by aid organizations and military forces. Thanks to the high-temperature-resistant borosilicate glass cylinder from Schott, wind and weather cannot harm this reliable light source.

Unique high-intensity technology in German craftsmanship quality. The excellent light output of the Petromax lamp is achieved through a simple yet fascinating principle: Kerosene is pressurized and fed into a vaporizer, where the evaporating fuel reacts in a mantle impregnated with luminous salts to produce a bright, warm light. To ensure that this principle works flawlessly, the lamp, consisting of over 200 individual parts, is still assembled by hand.

The right accessories for everyone. In addition to various reflectors, storage, and transport bags, there are many other accessories available. For example, the Petromax lamp can be converted into a stove or a heater. Thanks to this wide range of high-quality accessories, the lamp can be individually expanded and equipped.
