Feuerhand Storm Lantern Baby Special 276

Overview

A heat-resistant glass globe wraps a specially developed burner element in this Feuerhand storm lantern, which burns kerosene instead of drawing power. The body is powder-coated steel in sage green, and the maker has built hurricane lanterns in Germany since the nineteenth century.

The glass is described as able to stay intact when hit by rain or snow, and the burner design is meant to avoid flicker and soot. Being a flame lantern, it needs fuel on hand and attention to safety that a battery light does not.

Who it's for

A power-outage planner, camper or patio host who likes a warm flame light and a traditional lantern. People with children or pets near a flame, or who need bright task light, should pick an electric lantern.

Pros and cons

Performance notes

Light comes from a flame fed by kerosene, which gives warm-white output rather than the brightness of a bulb. The burner element is designed to reduce flicker and sooting, and the globe resists thermal shock. Burn time depends on filling the tank, with the listing citing up to twenty hours.
