Been using the same lantern for quite a few years and had to replace a mantel and globe when my son knocked it off of a shelf in the garage. That is the only time I have replaced a mantel. I believe I paid $14.97 for it back then.
Wow that sounds like quite the collection! I would love to see it!I have an old Coleman dual fuel 425 stove that is still going strong! Just cooked some hot dogs out on the ice with it the other day!
ill take a pic one of these days. I have at least 16 lanterns from the early 60s red coleman 200a to the newer 288 and powerhouse dual fuels along with four 2 and 3 burner white gas stoves and 4 1970s coleman catalytic heaters and some propane colemans laying around.i rebuild/repair them and have found quite a few that people where throwing away.i sold 5 lanterns on fleabay this year too.
I use the same one. I love it, the mantels don't fall apart like the coleman dual mantel lanterns do. It is so small I just pack it in my tackle bucket and off I go. We use it for catfishing all summer long and heating my portable hut, runs forever on a tank. Best value of lanterns if you ask me!
One nice thing about the Coleman Compact is I can hang it from the support pole in the top of my two man flip and it doesn't get too hot for the fabric.
Definitely a very good investment. This is the lantern that is nearly nuclear blast proof. It will survive a lot of rough use/transport and with minor maintenance it keeps working perfectly. NBG
Mantles are cheap. Replace mantle once before each season. After removing old mantle I inspect and blow out with compressed air and wipe away any particulate debris before putting on new mantle. About five minutes when I take my time. NBG
