Review on Stainless Steel Replacement Globe For Wire Mesh Camp Lantern by Kevin Ayala

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Fits fine on a coleman double globe

I have an "old" Coleman double globe propane lantern (perhaps circa 2001) and based on the reviews, I was afraid it would not fit. The idea of never having to replace the glass again was attractive though and the price was right, so I gave it a shot.What I can say is that the globe seems to be ever so slightly wider on the "top" vs the bottom. The first time I tried to install it, it was too tight and I was having trouble getting it to fit into the base of my lantern. Then I flipped it over and it fit like a glove.Now I'm really happy with it! I like that it cuts the light and it's not so harsh to look directly at the light anymore. Overall light output is diminished, but I don't really run my lamp full bright anyways and always wanted a a low setting that was dimmer and this does exactly that.I would buy this again

Pros
  • HIT THE TRAIL WITH CONFIDENCE: When the lights go down, the first thing you grab is your lamp- with this mesh cover, you can weather the dark with a sturdy cover that can really take a beating so you can see even without the north star!
Cons
  • Not practical for long-term or heavy use

I was tired of broken glass and found these. I will be replacing every one I have.... Hands down the the best upgrade in awhile I have found!!!!! Only big difference I have found is you can touch the screen without being burned unlike the glass. That is a plus if your not using it for heat but I have a woodstove in my canvas tent for heat so not a big deal. Well worth the price!!!!
