A search did not turn up an answer to this so...
I am interested in replacing my dual mantle propane lanterns with Flourescents, I do not think LEDs would be bright enough.
I have noticed a diversity in flourescent styles and power. Does anyone have an idea how any of the flourescents compare in real world brightness to the veneralble Coleman twin mantle propane lanterns? I have had no opprotunity to do a side by side.
Gee, I used to use the white gas lanterns years ago until on a sub-freezing night in a near blizzard snow storm the gas did not vaporize and the lantern flashed over setting the inside of my tent on fire. I switched to propane then, now I would like to upgrade again.
