Everybody seems to either like or hate this Little lamp.
The bad sides of the 226 is they often have to be pumped because the tank only have 2,4 dl Space and also because they have some rubber-seals that goes hard over time and is a bit difficult to change in the field.
The good sides is that the 226 is small and handy, easy to carry, seems pretty solid and it is still possible to get all spares for it.
It is today possible to get the seals in viton-rubber that dont go hard and spoil the use of the lamp.
This one costed 453 zloty from new in 1994 taken from the prízetag on the tank.
Well, I like the Little bugger. And Little she is, as to be seen on the last Photo beside a Geniol 150 and the Tilley FL6. Here she is:
