Soto compact lantern - Soto Compact Refillable Lantern

I bought this to add to my growing lantern collection and to use on Boy Scout camping trips with my son. Fits in the backpack, durable, and I like that you can either use it as a candle or a lantern. The refill adapter is a must have accessory so you can fill it from isobutane containers or with the lindal valve adapter for the aerosol can style butane cans. This is an excellent lantern for the price and I am giving it 5 stars but I wish it had a longer burn time like the out of production Coleman Xcursion or Luminos as they could go for 6 hours before needing a refill. Overall good deal, well constructed but be sure to read to instructions thoroughly as you have to depress the red button on the catch to ensure the lantern will stay lit. If not you will spend about 20 min trying to figure out why you got a defective lantern when it is just operator error.
