Coleman Two-Mantle Dual Fuel Lantern with Hard Case Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I bought this lantern because it was small and I like the bright light these lanterns throw, and the coleman hiss for nostalgic reasons. The size difference between this and the larger dual fuel one wasn't clear to me, so I ordered that by mistake first, and returned it at small cost. I like the idea of a case to protect it, anyway.
The first time I used this one, it worked fine. It doesn't throw a blinding light, but a fully satisfying one -- good for its size, I'm not disappointed. Packing it out in the case was the problem; it worked well to the car, but back to the house the bottom fell out, the lantern dropped and broke both the glass and the mantels. I think the sides of the plastic case got compressed in the car packing and that's all it takes to release the base. I'll replace the parts at unknown cost and I'll think twice before I carry it again.

Coleman Premium Dual-Fuel Lantern Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I Purchased this gasoline / white-gas fueled lantern last month. This item uses gas from YOUR vehicle's tank (Get a $3 hose and squeeze pump from hardware stores). I always have gasoline in my truck when I go camping, but get frustrated of storing and looking for white-gas.
The Lantern puts out the same power and sound as a propane-powered Lantern. It uses the same mantles, too. And, NO! There is no gas smell...

Coleman Two-Mantle Dual Fuel Powerhouse Lantern Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)C. Anderson was right on - a gallon of gas would last a LONG time with this lantern. I specifically bought it to avoid those silly propane tanks, and white lantern fuel is very expensive. This lantern is very bright, and the fuel last a long time even when it's fully cranked.

Light up your campsite for up to 14 hours at a stretch with this Coleman duel-fuel Powerhouse lantern. Burning up to 25 percent brighter than Coleman's 285 series lanterns, the Powerhouse is a great choice for evening meals, games, or reading while at the campsite. The lantern is powered by your choice of 2 pints of Coleman fuel or unleaded gas, so you don't need to scramble for one fuel if you have plenty of the other on hand. The light also offers a two-mantle design for better lighting (the lantern comes with two standard No. 21 mantles). Perhaps best of all, the lantern lasts for hours once the sun sets, with a 7-hour burn time on high and a 14-hour burn time on low. Designed to light easily with matches, the Powerhouse lantern comes with a filter funnel.
About Coleman More than 100 years ago, a young man with an entrepreneurial spirit and a better idea began manufacturing lanterns in Wichita, Kansas. His name was W.C. Coleman, and the company he founded would change life in America. A man plagued with such poor vision he sometimes had to ask classmates to read aloud to him, Coleman saw a brilliant light in 1900 in a drugstore window that stopped him in his tracks. He inquired about the light inside and discovered he was able to read even the small print on a medicine bottle by the illumination. The lamps had mantles, not wicks, and were fueled by gasoline under pressure instead of coal oil. Soon afterward, Coleman started a lighting service that offered a "no light, no pay" clause--a big step forward for merchants who were burned by inferior products that rarely worked--and drew substantial interest from businesses that wanted to keep their lights on after dark.
In the ensuing years, Coleman expanded its product line well beyond lanterns. The company's current catalog is thick with products that make spending time outdoors a pleasure. There are coolers that keep food and drinks cold for days on end, comfortable airbeds that won't deflate during the night, a complete line of LED lights that last for years, powerful portable grills that cook with an authentic open-grill flame, and much, much more. Coleman has truly fashioned much of our outdoor camping experience, and expects to do so for generations to come.

Coleman Exponent Dual Fuel Lantern Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I think that a 75 watt equivalency is about right. In my experience, though, the normal 2 mantle Colemans in comparison are only about 100 watts. This lantern, cmopared to other Coleman white gas lanterns, is more compact, light, and very sturdy.
The only problems, compared to a regular Coleman gas lantern, is that the gas tank is smaller, so you have to pump to maintain pressure more often. Also, because of the small gas tank, you have to refill more often, it usually lasts about 3 hours. I heard other people carry extra gas in an aluminum water bottle. It is a single mantle, and uses a different mantle than the usual 2 mantle lanterns sold by Coleman.
All in all, a good product. Sometimes when I get bored, I'll light it up on my balcony and the "hsssss" of the generator and the smell of the gas burning will bring back memories of camping.
Sigh.
