I love this lantern. In the old days, fuel lanterns like these were an absolute must for camp lighting. Nowadays, it is not my first go to for camp lighting with advent of LEDs. If I set my Luci LED lantern out in the sun for a day, it will light up my camp/tent for two or three evenings on that one charge and weighs less than 125g, which weighs less than even the smallest fuel cylinder for this lantern {ASIN: B01IIV1OC0}. It will do this for months on end. Carbon impact for 4 months use - ZERO. How many fuel cylinders is that in a lantern?What I really use this Primus lantern for nowadays is both light and/or HEAT. If it is too cool or cold, fire this thing up inside the tent,

Ok, bought it for backpacking, its not "too heavy" if you are going U/L you might just want a headlamp. This lamp is robust and well made. I had an electric lantern along on our recent trip - either " would have worked" but the Scouts seemed to prefer the very bright light from this... it really does light up the entire camp site for board games or whatever. I guess it would be a hand warmer heater as well if you were cold. It has a very nice bag that rolls up and keeps it safe. It has a wonderful wire string to hang it from a branch (should you not have a table to set it on). The bag seems like a must because it has one of those "burn down" elements that make it so bright (like a propane lamp).

By myself, I've always been perfectly content with my headlamp. I bought this thinking it'd be a cool toy for plush backpacking trips with my girlfriend/non-hiker friends. After all, the weight penalty is negligible if I'm already carrying a canister. After using it just a few times, however, I am reluctant to leave it behind even on my solo trips. It creates a lot of natural looking, ambient light. Its a strangely comforting effect, whether I'm setting up/tearing down a tent, eating dinner, getting ready for bed, or packing up before dawn. Much preferred to the blue, shadow-less spot light from a headlamp.One thing that would be kind of nifty would be a way to adjust the length of wire/cable/thing,

There is a stainless steel wire bridle attached on both sides just below the mesh screen ... the bridle attaches to a sliding wire loop 5" above the top of the hot lantern for hanging ... there's an s-hook on the top end.The instruction sheet says to keep the heated lantern at least .5 meters (20 inches) away from combustible materials. That is almost exactly the distance that the bridle and suspension wire maintain between the top of the hot lantern and the hanging point.The bridle and s-hook are visible in the Amazon photos, but not mentioned in the description. Looks like there is one on the glass glove version as well ... I was pleased to discover it when I opened the box.

Saw these butane lanterns on a recent camping trip and knew I had to have one to go with the Jetboil. They only sent the one mantle so I would definitely order more. The mantle was a bit of a pill at first but eventually I figured out which end went on first. (In every video the "big hole" was easy to tell from the smaller top hole. Mine were kind of both squished/stitched together...) Getting the Piezo lighter inside the mantle was not hard. Burning the mantle did set off a bunch of smoke, but no smoke alarms. (Note to self... Check Smoke Alarms!) After burning the mantle is considerably smaller in volume (guessing 40-60% less?) than it was at first.

This is a great little lightweight lantern for backpacking, camping. Easy to light, easy to store in the included case, also protects the mantle. The only issue is the mantle that came with it was damaged and as always with this type of lantern you should never operate it with a damaged mantle, extreme fire hazard.Acquiring additional mantles was a challenge, so I bought a 3 pack once found, these store neatly in the bottom of the case.I does burn hot when bright as all lanterns of this type will, and on full a flame was observed above the lantern, I wouldn't recommend full on, The glass cylinder around the mantle will get very hot, a lower setting is sufficient for light and you will use less fuel.

This is a small little light weight lantern good for light weight backpackers. The light is sufficiently bright and can be dimmed down easily for longer burn time if you like. Unlike the battery type LED lantern, the brightness of Primus Micron Lantern is maintained consistently bright throughout the life of the canister - this is a great plus! The only down side is that it is not safe to be used inside an enclosed tent. Some might even fuss over the amount of heat it generates but this become something positive when you are camping out in a cooler place. I would recommend this to campers who are concern over weight especially in a long hike situation.

I was sooo impressed with the performance of this lantern. The overall construction seems absolutely solid, the ignition has worked the first time each time I have lit the lantern so far, and the amount of light is perfect for what a person would need camping. On high it was bright enough to illuminate a picnic table well enough for our family to eat dinner, and on low it was just right for small tasks. Taking it to the Boundary Waters in a couple weeks and really looking forward to the addition I've made to my gear! The globe does get hot rather fast, but this is to be expected IMO. Overall I think it deserves a 5 star rating.

I've had every type of light known to man; my fave is my Northstar (frowned on by Mothers of small children - it's petrol don't you know; it'll blow up you fool?); Tilleys lights - the magic of priming them (again frowned on by Mother's of young children expecting these "smelly" things to explode); candles; Petzl headlights; the list goes on. Then came this light - quietly screw the cannister on the bottom; instantaneous ignition; a gentle purr; hang it on it's own lovely hangar and there we have grief free lighting.PS I still use the other ones when like minds are around :)

Works well and is rugged. It is not as bright as a typical larger two mantel Coleman lantern, but still bright enough for general needs and cooking at a campsite. Works with butane canisters as in the product picture, but with adapters it has worked perfectly for me also with propane canisters and the cheap 100% elongated butane canisters that are the shape of a spray paint can. Only drawback is while hiking and driving around, there is a tendency for the mantel to break and need to be replaced each night. I used Coleman mantels when I experienced this.

Love this little lantern. For years I’ve been searching for something like this. One that provides enough light for a campsite without blinding the entire campground. One that fits in your backpack. One that doesn’t break. As with any lantern you have to be careful about the mantle inside but the screen does a great job of keeping it safe, letting light out, and keeping the bugs out. So far I’ve been using the same canister that I use for cooking and haven’t had an issue with running out of fuel prematurely.

Incredible lantern that I have owned twice over the last 20 years or so. This iteration has some improvements like the piezo ignition which works flawlessly so far. Kudos to Primus on that little gem. Also the top is more modern looking and the hang cable is redesigned. The mantle that came with it is a tad large I think, but worked nonetheless. This is a fantastic little worker and I look forward to using it together with my $18 (from Walmart online) Primus Express stove.

This is an incredible little gas powered lantern. It’s very easy to set up and puts off a tremendous amount of light while consuming very little fuel. I’ve been using #51 Coleman mantles as cheap replacements instead of the primus mantles. They are just a little tricky to install, but after a little effort they go in no problem and function perfectly with the lantern. It’s a great lantern and I’m thrilled I was able to get one with the metal cage rather than glass casing.

Great little lantern that puts out a good amount of light and some warmth for those chilly camp evenings! Don't mistake this thing for a Coleman Northstar Duel fuel in terms of brightness, but it does put out a nice light for nighttime table use during dinner. And I defintely like the warm glow vs those harsh white LED lights! My only big complaint would be replacing the mantle. Not too bad to do on a warm night, but it becomes a bit more cumbersome on a cold night.

Perfect camp/backpacking lantern. So far, I've not had a mantle break on me even tossed in my pack and bumped around quite a bit. The absence of a glass globe is really great design thinking, as is the included cable hanger. There are loads of videos on youtube comparing brightness of this to other lanterns, but one of my biggest complaints about those larger coleman lanterns is that they are just too bright.I also purchased one of these
