Perfect little companion for my coleman pocket sized cooking stove, reasonable brightness but also throws out heat, perfect for a cold night

This is a great little camping light. There's no glass to break and its small size and protective case means it's easy to pack away. Light output is pretty decent, only used it outdoors but it was enough to read by if I sat close to it, with the added bonus that it throws out a good amount of heat for those chilly evenings. I was a little worried on this front, as it was being used under an awning, but in actual fact the heat above the lantern dissipates fairly quickly, so anything over a few feet above the lantern is probably safe enough.
The mantel was a little hard to fit, but I guess practice makes perfect. The top of the lantern has discoloured with use, but this seems to be more cosmetic than anything. However, the clips for the hanging wire are looking pretty black - not sure how long they will last, but as I don't hang the light I'm not that worried, but it could be something to watch out for. It should run for around 18 hours from a C500 canister, according to the box. I've had maybe eight hours out of it so far and the canister seems to be still be pretty full.
Although the top of the mesh cage does glow red hot when you turn the lantern off, it cools down in just a few minutes, which means you can pack it away quite quickly, without it melting your tent.

Puts out a heck of a lot of light, seems OK on gas consumption. Mantles easy to fit once you've got the knack. Without the knack I fully appreciate the 1 star reviewer!
I prefer candle lanterns, but this is great if there is a group of you just kicking back, having a brew and chewing over the day. That wasn't the only reason I bought it though. I bought it for a main room light during power cuts. I find LED lanterns harsh over time, and whilst in a tent, candle lanterns are superb, at home, the added light this kicks out will be welcome when the powercuts start. We always get a few 24 hour ones over winter and this will make cooking and eating easier ( I have children, they like a lot of light whilst eating ), then back to candles.
So, small, light, efficient and Amazon seem to be the cheapest out there. Go Outdoors, at the time of writing want £36!

Is it me or is this impossible to use
I have to disagree with the other 5* reviewers. I was given this as a present and thought this would be a great choice for backpacking. Read more

Coleman Light
We wanted a small light that would work on the gas cylinders we use on the gas converter for our Trangia Stove. This is really neat and even comes with its own drawstring bag. Read more
