I hate the traditional lantern and also most propane too. However, I stumbled across these when I forgot my lantern 2 years ago. They are sort of mini propane lanterns. They are much briter than white gas and smaller than other propane lanterns. Belive it or not but Walmart is the place for these. Century or ozark trail but stay away from the coleman, the light is yellow not super white like the first two models. They are a single tube style mantel. The mantels hardly ever break, the globe it caged and spring tensioned. The unit fits in the pocket of my hunting coat after removed fron the one lb tank that lasts got 8hrs on high.
Trust me, I’m hard on my equipment and picky on amount of light. $18. -mark
