A camping lantern with a real flame in it, and the gas tank built into its own base. It stands not quite six inches tall on the table and burns for two to three hours on a fill. The knurled knob on its side takes the light from a low ember up to full.

No batteries. No cable. No blue-white glare an hour after sunset.

An LED lantern lights the table. A flame makes it worth sitting at.

Rechargeable lanterns are useful and not one of them is pleasant to sit under. The light comes off a plastic diffuser at one flat color and it never moves. By the second night out it is either dimmer than it was or it is dead. You end up rationing it, which is a strange thing to be doing with a light.

This one burns butane behind a plain clear glass tube, so what you are looking at is a flame. It is warm and it moves. The light goes out on every side of the tube instead of down onto the table, so faces read properly across a camp table rather than disappearing into the dark behind the glare.

The gas is already in the base, so nothing screws on underneath

Most camping gas lamps are a burner head that threads onto a fuel canister, which means the canister travels too and the whole lamp stands on a threaded joint. The tank on this one is the base it stands on, the machined aluminum drum at the bottom, so it sits on a table by itself and stays where you put it.

You light it with a match or a lighter, the way you would light a candle, and then the knurled knob on the collar is the whole of the control. Open it and you have a full working flame for the table. Close it down and it settles to something closer to a candle for the last hour outside a tent. One fill runs about two to three hours, and there is nothing to plug in at either end of the day.

Machined aluminum, and it travels in its own case

The body is aluminum alloy, turned rather than molded, with knurled rings at the base, at the collar and under the glass, and a small brass stem carrying the knob. A ring of fine index marks is engraved around the shoulder and a small mountain mark sits on the collar above it. The globe is glass, straight-sided and completely clear, so you get the flame itself rather than a lit panel.

It weighs 206 grams, a little over seven ounces, and it comes in a protective case, so it goes in the lid of a pack rather than in the trunk of a car. Put it on a camp table, on the porch of a tent, or on a garden table at the end of an evening when the light has gone and nobody wants to move yet.
