Hey carbon04 the stats are for the biggest one made 2500 =Thermal Output: 1400 British Thermal Units per Hour. My model has been used to keep the green house from freezing during the night.They also make a model that has a cup/small pot on top for cooking/warming your lunch or coffee, pretty cool.I have used mine in the tent -cabins-power outage -sitting playing crib or doing dishes after a day of hunting, candles just don't cut it! When ordering I bought 2 extra globes and a wick pack for each lantern. for the small cost of these lanterns and how cheap they are to operate per hour-for how usefull having light is -and their so simple and safe in design-$25 each is priceless
