In December of 2008, it became the forum as you see it today. It is a forum rich in knowledge of Coleman and other Gas Pressured Appliances. This “richness of knowledge” comes from those that come here and share what they know. From our ultra-light travel trailers to toy haulers, our small coleman lantern campers to luxury fifth wheels, we offer a variety of RV options. Whether your idea of the perfect getaway is dispersed camping or a luxury RV resort, each of our RVs is designed to help ensure every trip you take is memorable. Your RV is waiting for you, let us help you find it.
The first production of instant lighting lanterns was in March, 1928 when Coleman made the L220 and L228 (above- missing mica globe). The first pumps on Quick-Lite lanterns were coleman grill “built-on” rather than “built into” the founts. This L427 lantern, in John Stendahl’s collection, is date stamped May, 1925, and has the pump top with the rounded handle.
This lantern is the largest and the heaviest product we reviewed. It packs into its plastic carrying case with ease once the propane canister is removed. The carrying case is light and closes securely. This product comes with a metal guard to protect the globe and reduce rattling. We used it for months during which time we took an RV trip for over ten weeks straight and used this light almost every single night.

After the initial installation of the mantle, it doesn’t smoke anymore when you relight it. During this testing period, we only had to change the mantle once. We lit campfires, cooked, played board games, had parties, and even chopped wood on moonless nights with this lantern. During one of our parties, we put the Northstar near Grandma when she was chilly. This lantern does make a bit of a hissing sound when it is lit, and when the fuel is about to run out it makes a rather loud whistling noise. This is where I really turned on the coleman lantern.
