Size: 5.38 in. x 3.38 in. x 3 in. Candle Power: 24 Burn Time: 9 hrs. on high. Weight (without fuel): 3.2 oz. Fuel cartridge not included."

From Backcountry.com:
"The Coleman F1 Lite Lantern throws off a healthy glow, and weighs just 3.2oz detached from its fuel supply. It's a classic little propane lamp that's perfect for your Alaskan cabin, campsite, or back porch. The F1 Lite is refreshingly simple, with just a mesh mantle guard, wire fuel toggle, and connecting valve making up the entire lantern. Snap it onto a fuel canister, light it up, and illuminate your secret getaway spot whether it's miles from nowhere or right in your back yard."

From REI:
"Extremely lightweight and compact, Coleman F1 Lite™ lantern illuminates your backcountry adventures without weighing you down. Mesh globe detaches with a simple twist, creating easy access to the mantle; access hole in the globe lets you easily light the lantern with a match. Hang the lantern and transport it around your campsite with removable wire handle. Screws onto a butane/propane canister, sold separately. Reinforced carrying case protects the lantern while it's in your backpack. Includes one slip-on mantle."

"Bought this as a replacement for my Excursion Lantern. The Excursion still is a great compact lantern but it uses the PowerMax fuel, which is not always readily available and special push on mantles that are not only hard to find but expensive ($4 for a two pack)."
