Your cart is empty.When you need a powerful car-camping lantern or a compact camp light for backpacking, pick up the Primus MicroLantern. This lightweight lantern mounts directly on a standard fuel canister, and features a durable metal mesh net instead of a glass globe. The piezo igniter makes for quick, hassle-free lighting, and an attached wire makes for easy hanging in camp. The efficient, adjustable (up to 70W) burner uses very little fuel and stays virtually silent, so you can play cards without sounding like there’s a jet engine in camp.

Seit dem Kauf ein teuer Begleiter auf meinen Campingtrips.Die Lichttemperatur ist mir bedeutend angenehmer als die neuen LED-Lampen. Das tauscht kann gegen ein leises Fauchen ein, das bei höheren Einstellungen durchaus deutlich wird. Für mich trägt es zur Gemütlichkeit bei, andere mag es stören. In Schweden hat sie bei stärkerem Wings und leichterem Regen unbeeindruckt weiter vor sich hin gebollert.Die Laterne wandert im mitgelieferten Beutel direkt ins Gepäck. Glühstrumpf musste ich noch keinen wechseln obwohl einige Touren auf dem Motorrad schon ganz schön vibriert haben (nur Straße aber auch Kopfsteinpflaster).Material und Baugröße machen die Lampe selbst sehr Widerstandsfähig. Und weil sie so klein und leicht ist kann man sie ohne Kippgefaher auf die kleinen Kartuschen schrauben.Wenn ich versuche das Rammstein- Konzert auszuleuchten ist das Gas halt schnell weg. Bei normalen Gebrauch (Kaffee, Abendessen, Licht) reicht ess durchaus für zwei-vier Abende Beleuchtung. Wobei ich mit Stirnlampe lese. Ginge aber auch mit der Gaslampe.

My son had bought me a Jet Boil stove couple of years ago to replace my trusted Coleman Peak1 stove. This year going canoeing into back country I brought it with me for the first time and packed my old Peak1 lantern. Needless to say I had to bring 2 different fuels and the glass on the lantern broke the first night. Got back and ordered this lantern so next year I won't have either problem.Tried out the lantern at night and it is not as bright as my old Coleman but close, way easier to operate and I think I'm an isobutane convert now. Love the lantern, a bit pricey but well worth it. Great carry bag included too. I read reviews prior to purchase and there were complaints about the bag being too large...it's a roll top similar to a dry bag and if you know how to use one it is the perfect size.

Lightweight. Compact. Solid design. Uses very little fuel. Pretty bright considering it's covered with a solid metal mesh.Doubles as a space heater hanging inside tent. Spent a few nights in San Gorgonio wilderness above 7000 feet. Had no problems with the igniter and it helped fight back the chill on 20 degree nights. Steel cable included for hanging has enough length to keep whatever it is hanging from cool.If you use this inside a tent, be extremely careful and use your head!!! Make sure you are venting if in a 4 season tent and don't keep it on for more than 30 minutes at a time. If you fall asleep with it on in an enclosed space, you may not wake up. Carbon monoxide is not your friend!I carry it in an Oakley zippered sunglasses case. It fits perfectly and I carry an extra mantle in there too.Wouldn't recommend for through hiking where your fuel needs to be carefully controlled, but on a few nights where 1 canister is more than enough, this is a nice item to have.I love it and am very pleased with its performance.

Testé lors de mes périples à velo, cet eclairage s'avère peu lumineux. Plus un eclairage d'ambiance q'une lumière. Cependant leger et peu encombrant. Il m'accompagnera dans mes prochaines virées.

A very effective small lantern which gives a decent light output. I would recommend this product.

I go camping whenever possible so me and my wife decided one day to upgrade to backpacking / Motorcycle camping. We also traded in the large bulky Coleman lanterns and stoves for something a bit smaller. I did a lot of research and I landed here.In most cases I would use LED flashlights and lanterns "AA and AAA batteries are a lot lighter than cans of butane fuel" but for good wide area light and heat this micro lantern can’t be beat. I normally bring this lantern on cold weather trips. me and the wife can stop drink some water rest for a few minutes and warm up with the lantern.Also works great in the dear blind set it on low and it will burn warm for hours. I let it run on high for up to 4-1/2 hours and at its lowest in excess of 7 hours. It burns just as bright if not brighter than a traditional Coleman lantern the wire mesh protects the element and won’t break like most traditional lanterns. it has about 2 or so foot of cable allowing it to be hung from low hanging branches.Do keep in mind it is still has a mantle which is very fragile. the lantern can be safely shoved in a pack and I’ve had no issues with it on long trips but keep spare mantles in your pack and don't drop it or toss your pack down as you could damage the white mantle.PS: I’ve also had a chance to use this lantern in 2 power outages I put on top of the stove so it could be near the upper exhaust lit the kitchen, dining room and most of living room.

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 :)
