I was reading another post and it occured to me that my Coleman fueled lantern is just about done for. Not worn out (its practically new) but I think its time as a source of light is just about past. LED lanterns are simply better in every way.
You can get more and brighter light. The "fuel" is safer and more compact. Can be built into the lantern. It doesn't get as hot and doesnt attract as many bugs. No more mantles to buy or glass to break. And you can take it inside your tent with you.
Someday our kids will be searching garage sales and get excited at finding an old time lantern like their parents had back in the day.
