Coleman Kerosene Lantern

Yes, this model is designed specifically for use with kerosene. Using other fuels, such as gasoline or white gas, can be dangerous and will damage the lantern.

This lantern uses a traditional preheating process. You will need to use rubbing alcohol to preheat the generator, then light the mantle using a match through the designated opening.

The lantern features a high-temperature globe specifically engineered to resist cracking from heat. While it is durable, it is still glass, so you should handle it with care during transport.

You have full control over the light output. The lantern includes an adjustable control knob that allows you to dim or brighten the light to suit your needs.

The lantern uses a String Tie #11 mantle. These are consumable parts that will eventually burn out and need to be replaced, so it is a good idea to keep a few spares in your camping kit.

It weighs 5.2 lbs, which gives it a sturdy, stable base on uneven surfaces. While it is not ultralight, the integrated bail handle makes it easy to carry or hang from a lantern pole.
