Coleman National Parks Edition Northstar Lantern

Active Junky Badass Gear Winner

Updated to run on convenient propane cylinders, Coleman turns a classic design into a collectable outdoor companion.

With a panorama of ancient pines ringing the glass globe, Northstar is a beaming beacon during this centennial celebration.  Bearing the National Park Foundation seal, this easy-starting model goes over 4 hours on a propane cylinder and grows to 1500 lumen output if desired.  Testers didn’t have to coax Northstar to glory as the Instastart ignition system eclipsed that found on many competitive models.  A metal globe guard proved vital while the collapsible footed base was handy but not exceptional.  Know that prepping the fabric mantle (the woven mesh that glows in the lantern) takes 15 minutes to complete – and is best done patiently at home.  Even in the backyard, on the driveway or the deck, Coleman captures the legacy of our sacred public parklands like no other brand in America.
