    I have collected Coleman lanterns for a few years. My last count was around seventy five. Plus two and three burner stoves. Also G.I. stoves. They are getting harder and harder to buy at decent prices. I hit about half a dozen flea markets and can usually find a couple of lanterns. When you start collecting you'll buy up anything green. Then after reality sets in and you find your running out of storage space. So now I am more selective in my purchases. I have lanterns from the middle 1920's that work like the day they were purchased. An added bonus is if you can get a lantern dated on your birth month and year. That is special and you can burn it on your birthday. Most people I talk to have fond memories as a kid sleeping over at grandpa's fishing cabin and making breakfast on the Coleman stove. Or out night fishing with your dad and hearing the hiss of the lantern and the hiss of an unfortunate moth getting too close to the glass and crashing and burning. They are almost all repairable. Parts are readily available. Most lanterns I get only require a clean up and they work perfectly. Enjoy the hobby and the wonderful stories people will tell you about their memories of lanterns and stoves.
    Also if possible light them outside, then when they are operating correctly, take them indoors. Just as a precaution.
    P.S. I have yet to get my birth lantern. I need September 1952. I have August, October, and November. I'll run across it one day. All part of the fun of collecting!

    That was great! There are countless varieties of liquid-fueled lanterns, stoves, and heaters. Some lanterns have cooking attachments.
    Old lamps and stoves, can be super inexpensive - so a cheap way to collect useful equipment. Lawn sales and Craigslist will get you some.
    Many TH-cam vids and forums on collecting and fixing them, too.

    Always glad to see someone else keeping the home lights lit..literally.
    My first experience of a gas lanterns was camping with my dad's "borrowed" gear from his reservist armory...helps to have been the senior Company NCO to 'test the gear for field use'...1959?
    I'm not going to mention the 300 pound squad tent cots and C-rats/10-in-one goodies that made the trip...
    I've had a liking for them ever since. One military model I got at for free at a swap-off/dropoff day in my community...if you have something you don't want, drop it off, maybe pick up something else.
    I have many, the oldest is a Coleman single-mantle 242C from 1946. The latest is maybe 20 years old, I forget which model. One kero model a friend just gave me about a month or so ago. All are in ready-to-use state....I think I have around 9 or 10 all told.
    Some few years back we had a block party (they block off the street), and the entire street was illuminated with my lanterns AND about half a dozen oil lamps.
    I also have a couple single-burner Coleman stoves, four or five two-burners, and a three-burner base camp stove I got NIB with the original punch-card registration card and box etc.
    When we lost power (no heat, etc.) for five days in winter, the lanterns and a stove kept us warm-ish and safe.

    I’m a lantern junkie too! I don’t have a German lantern, but I know when the Coleman lanterns have issues pumping like that it’s because the leather gasket has dried up a bit. If you remove it and let it soak in some grease that brings it back pretty effectively. Also adding oil to the oiler hole can help keep it lubed and holding pressure.

Also a neat produst that you can buy on Amazon is a propane converter tube for your older Coleman stoves. It's $20 and I love it, and it's even more efficient since I don't have the weight of the white fuel tank that comes with it.

    I've been getting my lanterns gone through after buying a Coleman 288 at a garage sale a few weeks ago for $5. I've also been thinking of building boxes for my lanterns, 2 cans of fuel each, and spare parts. I've got the 288, a 295 Dual fuel, and a 285 dual fuel. We used them when I was a kid when we went fishing!

    Pretty cool video, definitely reminded me of camping trips with the family when I was a kid. I like boxes of old ammo, doesn't matter what kind as long as it's old and the box is cool.

    I love old Coleman, I have a couple stoves and lanterns, I'm fascinated by the process of using them. I'm also starting to collect kerosene heaters, they are a nice backup plan for heating the house or using out in the shed.

    Good idea having a storage box. I'm in the process of getting my old stove and lantern running. When I got them out of the shed my stove was a mouse condo and my lanterns internals had mud dobber nests jamming up my air tube from the tank. Getting them going though. For right now I'm gonna keep my lantern in a 5 gallon pickle bucket!

    This is excellent. From a guy who grew up on a farm needing to use lanterns, this is right up my alley.

    I went to check out my two vintage lanterns to see if they still worked. Realized I'd lent them to my son on a permanent basis. To my surprise. So I went on ebay and picked up a 228f for $35 bucks pluss shipping Due to my lack of experiance in working on them I had to order one part. It works great. Ordered a 220h for $35 including shipping. Should arrive soon. Got out my two coleman stoves. An 82 and 90 year models. Both lit up with 15 year old fuel. I still had that old can of coleman fuel. Filled up my lantern and it lit as well. Not as willingly as with fresh fuel but lit. Proves to be great prepper stuff. Will try to send pictures.

    I have been using Colman’s lantern and stove for 50 years for camping,power outages , black outs . there are the best hard to bet. Last year Walmart stopped selling gasoline stove and lantern . I picked up two dual power lanterns for 15 dollars each. Colman also made brass back pack stove for GI ‘s in WWII $$$ For them

    We have to see more videos! Chad, you got me interested in these. I’ve already bought one. Haha working on a second. We need more videos. Maybe even a rebuild video on one. Do a “light up” video where you briefly explain them all and light them all. I wish you would have lit a white gas civilian model after the military one. Would’ve shown people the big contrast between them. Also you can try oiling the leather on that pump to help restore it.

    Nice. I love old Coleman stoves and lanterns. Got a 1969 252a that I believe is one of the coolest lanterns Coleman ever made. Also have a '79 228J with the big hat, even have a little 226 backpackers lantern that I bought new back in the early 90's and brought with me on trips in the Trinity Alps. I even like some of the newer propane Colemans for their quietness and convenience. Great vid, thanks for sharing!

    Lemme tell you guys, every memorial day me and my buddies go on a 3 day 2 night canoe trip and lanterns are a MUST HAVE! We have to pack light to make sure we don't sink the canoes with all the beer in the coolers. Sometimes old tech is the best tech! This is a perfect example of that.

    I've tracked many a blood trails using a Coleman lantern with aluminum foil on half the glide to keep the light out of my eyes. Works better than a flashlight!

    I remember using them as both light and heat while ice fishing as a kid.
    One lantern would heat the entire ice shanty to the point where it would be sub freezing outside, howling wind but we were inside in T-shirt’s and jeans comfy.
    The lantern would attract fish through the ice.
    I’ve seen ones with a metal box up top to heat/cook/boil with. That’d be extremely valuable in a grid down or boon docking.

    Awesome! I've been collecting coleman lanterns for years....one of my favorite collections. Nothing is better than pouring fuel into a lantern from the 40s that hasnt run in decades and firing it up to produce significant light output. Keep up the lantern content lol

    I have a 220 from around 53’ at least all the info I could find on it. Just needed a new gas generator, and the other parts cleaned out, re-oiled the leather cup, some new fuel and mantles, and boom ran just fine got a single burner Coleman stove too with it for $20 at a yard sale. Got a two burner old Coleman stove at another yard sale for $20, just need cleaned up and it works fine.
