Forgot to mention two other non electric/gas lamps:
The UCO candle lamp, collapsable with a 9 hour burn time with the proper candles, also available for them is a stainless steel reflector, bright enough to read by if positioned close by, we have one of these also (told you we had a fair few) The UCO is a bit of a brand icon these days so the price as gone up somewhat since I first got mine, we used it in the log cabin down the woods, 100% reliable and very compact.
Also the bog standard hurricane lamp (parrafin) cheap as chips, nowt to go wrong, downside: they can rust quickly! stinks if used in the house and a bit dim but better than nothing, as per name they will work in just about any weather outside.
