ROFL, I am Calador Stormblood of Tarew Marr.  I was one of the two who inspected the loot of the Portable Heater. I had intended to post this here myself, but was waiting on the log file from my friend ursoo, to see if I could figure out exactly what it was she looted.  I see the cat is out of the bag, so I will tell you what I do know for certain.  When I got to view the corpse, second by the way, all that was left was this:
 
Inferno Shock   (Wizzie Spell)
Metal Twine
Metal Rod
Gizmo #6
 
(As stated in the other post, the gnomes argued over whether a gizmo #4 should have been used instead.)
 
My guild mate Ursoo told us he looted:  (Unfortuanetly he went link dead, and did not come back, so I am not certain yet)
 
Amber
Gears
Large Lantern
Metal parts
 
I have studied tinkering some, and have not heard of Metal Parts, but think that maybe like my guild mate Jorus maybe right when he said he may be refering to metal bits, often used in smithing, or perhaps he was refering to the metal twine and rod that I saw. I am hoping to get a confirmation for sure soon, I will let you know.  Also the gnomes said something about the use of firewater, but I did not see it and Ursoo did not mention it, but maybe perhaps he looted it and forgot, again, I will post the information once I find out for certain.

This was on a mage mailing list.
 
 
Hey guys, I know this isn't a magician related topic, but I figure
that there are quite a few gnomes here so it might be worthwile to
post.  There was a GM event in Everfrost last night were a gnome
showed off a new 'invention'.  It was a floating lantern called a
personal heater.  (Actually, it was a shadow man holding a lamp,
renamed to 'a personal heater').  Anyways, the lamp had some cool
effects, casting fireshield on everyone around it (then it started
doing an AOE that affected all pc's too close).  The gnomes decided
it must be destroyed, because the creator used the wrong items in
it's making.  Anyways, the players around slaughtered the personal
heater, and both members in my group managed to loot/inspect the
items on the corpse.  The following is the log from what they
reported:

[Wed Apr 19 20:11:58 2000] Calador tells the group, 'wiz spell,
inferno shock'
[Wed Apr 19 20:12:07 2000] Calador tells the group, 'metal twine'
[Wed Apr 19 20:12:11 2000] Calador tells the group, 'metal rod'
[Wed Apr 19 20:12:22 2000] Calador tells the group, 'and gizmo #6'
[Wed Apr 19 20:14:07 2000] Ursoo tells the guild, 'gears, amber,
large lantern, metal parts'

Now the gnomes argued over the fact that they 'should have' used
gizmo #4 to keep the item from being dangerous.  Plus, I think Ursoo
was refering to metal bits, not metal parts.. but I dont know for
sure, since Dark Elves don't meddle much into tinkering.

Anyways, if anyone feels brave and has a few plat to burn, tinker
this item and let us all know what comes of it!  Even if you get
that 'you lack the skill to fashion the items together' message, at
least that tells us that there IS something there.
