In looking for a case for my Coleman lantern, I stumbled on this deal. The lantern itself is typically $100+ and the case is $20. I've used this specific lantern for over 20 years. It's advertised as dual fuel and, while it will run on unleaded or white gas, I would strongly suggest using white gas. It's probably the ethanol blend that causes the issue, but I've found that running on unleaded will cause issues in the long term.
There are plenty of LED lantern options out there but I prefer old school and this is a great lantern. I've never ordered from Tractor Supply but shipping appears to be free > $59.

yes you are correct LED/battery charged lanterns are brighter or safer but you cannot beat the ambience nostalgic feeling of a fueled/base lantern and its almost indestructible construction. Ive had my old coleman propane lantern from my parents in the 1970s. I replaced the filament and its still like new.
Pros and cons of course
I have both. Prefer this one over the Powerhouse because it's a bit smaller to take it on a camping trip.
Thanks!
The propane lanterns put out similar light, but aren't quite as cool.
