I love it!It puts out a generous amount of light, and an extreme amount of heat (so much so that it can be dangerous). In addition I can run this on multiple fuels with the appropriate adapters.First off even with the mesh cage you get plenty of uninterrupted light. Its blinding to look at, the gas flow adjustment valve is very proportional and very accurate. And unlike most stoves that run on cylinder gas it maintains it's setting when you adjust it, even down to very very low. You can get it so low that it will barely provide any visible light, but it still provides ample heat to keep a car in winter or a tent warm when used properly to avoid asphyxiation.On any setting except absolute minimum the mesh cage and top of lantern will get so hot they will instantly ignite anything that touches it! Paper, wood, synthetic materials (your tent, jacket, pants, sleeping bag, etc). So this thing is extremely dangerous in that regard if not used with caution. Even at the lowest setting it still gets hot enough to burn you if you happen to touch or grab it.The steel wire hanging kit is great as it is attached to the base of the lantern that is fixed an not the removable mesh part. So you can be confident that the lamp will be securely held in place.It only comes with a single mantle and Primus mantles are expensive and can be impossible to find locally. Luckily they are the same as the Coleman #51 slip on mantles. But since Coleman no longer makes a micro lantern like this, those mantles are getting harder to find (most retail stores won't carry them) and more expensive. So I decided to try a standard Coleman #21 tie on mantle and yes it will work fine if installed properly. Those you can still get just about anywhere including walmart. So you can save yourself some headache and some dough using those. I can also use the Peerless mantles that are an alternative to the Colemans as I generally prefer those as they burn much brighter and whiter than the Colemans as they still have the Thorium in them. Using those its uncomfortable to look right at this thing on high.With the following adapters I can run the lantern on either the much cheaper Asian store pure butane cylinders, or the 1lb disposable propane cylinders.Kovea Propane Adapter ASIN# B00CFPISZWKovea Lindal valve to CB butane canister adapter ASIN# B00CFPIT06So if you car camping there is much better fuel economy to be had than the more expensive 4 season fuels.All in all a very solid lantern that can be even more useful and cheaper to run as advertised. Will probably buy a few more for fear they will one day be discontinued and no longer available. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Small, portable and a carry case. *by K***N on Reviewed in the United States on August 24, 2013* This is a great little lightweight lantern for backpacking, camping. Easy to light, easy to store in the included case, also protects the mantle. The only issue is the mantle that came with it was damaged and as always with this type of lantern you should never operate it with a damaged mantle, extreme fire hazard.Acquiring additional mantles was a challenge, so I bought a 3 pack once found, these store neatly in the bottom of the case.I does burn hot when bright as all lanterns of this type will, and on full a flame was observed above the lantern, I wouldn't recommend full on, The glass cylinder around the mantle will get very hot, a lower setting is sufficient for light and you will use less fuel. It uses the same IsoPro canisters as my stove so it makes for multi-use from same fuel source. All around great little lantern. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Awesome lantern. I was expecting it to be a ... *by R***H on Reviewed in the United States on February 8, 2015* Awesome lantern. I was expecting it to be a little brighter, but it puts off plenty of light for its size. Just be sure not to touch the cable that it hangs from during or after use. It gets extremely hot. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.be/products/497610839-primus-micron-lantern](https://www.desertcart.be/products/497610839-primus-micron-lantern) --- *Product available on Desertcart Belgium* *Store origin: BE* *Last updated: 2026-05-05*
