The first lanterns developed, named Petromax were used by the German armies before and during World War Two. The military significance of a lantern that would burn liquid fuels from diesel oil to kerosene, made the lantern very useful. Also developed were heaters and stoves

for the individual soldier and up to whole companies. These three items gave the German army the benefit of heat, light and a way to prepare food with the use of liquid fuel.

However, in the 1960's a Petromax Lamp was developed for "Petro".
