Well, not forever Harry, but as the name implies they were supposed to burn 100 hours with the smaller burner as opposed to 70 hours with the 5/8" burner. The burner cover does say Dietz Comet, GAV once told me the Dietz stock number for the 3/8" burner for the #100 and the #100 special, which was essentially the same burner as the comet but I can't seem to find it in my notes anywhere right now and that posting is long gone, does anyone have a catalog with that number?
