#2B

#2B - 1 1/2" - 30'''.  (2 1/2" flat measure).

Slightly smaller diameter than #2L because the extra thickness is on the inside of the wick.  $11.95@    Photo below  Measurements below.   (Chimneys here - note that the Belgian 30''' and Veritas 30''' lamps have chimney bases approximately 3'' in diameter, an easy way to differentiate whether you have a 20''' or 30''' lamp.)

Wick thickness and weave is incredibly important.  Victorian era lamp manufacturers were in intense competition to produce lamps with the greatest possible light output per fuel consumption, and their methods of achieving that were different.  Miller designed the easiest wick replacement system and brilliantly designed flame spreaders to achieve a tall, white light from a thin wick.  P&A used a nominal 1 1/2" diameter wick on their Royal burners which was thicker on theoutside of the wick to induce greater capillary action and thus produce a fine white light with the same draft tube measurements as a Miller or B&H. The L&B "Belgian" 30''' lamp used a nominal 1 1/2" diameter wick with the extra thickness on theinside of the wick, requiring a smaller diameter draft tube.  The Belgian 30''' design was so superb that is was copied by B&H's Radiant #5, P&A's Plumwood, and Miller's Dresden #2 & #3, Liberty 2/0 and Empress #3.  The L&B Belgian 20''' wick is 1 1/4" diameter (with a dense weave) and thicker on the outside of the wick than standard #1 wicks, and was copied by B&H Radiant #4, P&A Banner Electric, Hinks and Veritas.  The Success wick is diameter in diameter and thinner than the Belgian 20'''.  The Rayo Jr. used a thick 1" diameter wick (0.083").  None of these wicks are interchangeable!  (I measure wick thickness with Ames Thickness Gauges.)

Wicks which are too thin do not fill the wick gap; the wick itself can burn down the wick tube, and if not put out in time can cause a fire/explosion in the font.  The wick on the right is an example - a thin Miller #1 used in a Success lamp - and the wick was burning down the wick tube toward the fuel! 

My wicks are designed to ensure the same capillary action as original factory wicks - and thoroughly tested by lamp experts in a variety of lamps.
