I use a propane lantern for floundering and get around 3 hours of use per propane bottle. By the end of 3 hours I've had enough walking and there is very little fuel left in the bottle. I 'm assuming you are looking at one of the used Coleman lights as I did not think Coleman makes them any more. The old Coleman lights might burn more fuel but the new laterns I've seen by other manufacturers will give you roughly 3 hrs. light.

If you have found a source for new Coleman lights would you share it with the board? The Coleman lights of the past held up much better than lanterns now available.
