Coleman Deul Fuel Lantern

The Dual Fuel series of camp appliances takes it one step further.   Instead of using Coleman Fuel, you can simply pour gasoline into the tank.   Now you don't have to carry any extra fuel for your camp appliances at all.   The same cans that you use for your 4x4, ATV, Dirt bike or watercraft can also fill your camp appliances.

So what are the differences between running Coleman Fuel or gasoline in your appliances?   There are a few, but they are minor.   There is no run time difference in the Dual Fuel lanterns using either fuel.   The differences between the fuels are:

1) The generator is designed for use with unleaded gas so it will last significantly longer if you use Coleman fuel as opposed to unleaded gas.

2) The boiling (vaporization) temp for Coleman fuel is lower than with gasoline, so in theory Coleman fuel will work better in colder temperatures.

3) Coleman fuel has an additive that is designed to keep the burning components of your lantern or stove running smoother longer.

4) Some say they prefer the lessened smell associated with Coleman fuel, but some of us here kind of like the gas smell, so it's a matter of personal preference
