Description

The EasyLight is a fuel burning lantern made by Primus. It has an average rating of 5 stars (out of 5), based on 6 user reviews.

Here's what other sites are saying:

From Backcountry.com:
"The Primus EasyLight Lantern's corrosion-resistant burner is virtually silent, comes with a self-igniter, and kicks out variable light up to 80W. Primus made this handy lantern with durable and maintenance-free materials and gave it a piezo self-igniter to help you quickly and easily enjoy warm light. Since it uses very little gas and weighs only 6.8oz, the EasyLight Lantern is ideal to throw in your backpack for an extra light source any time of the year or for added heat in the shoulder seasons. While it's capable of working in single-digit temperatures, this Primus stove functions best above freezing."

From REI:
"Compact, quiet and with a high light output, the Primus EasyLight™ lantern is a great choice for backpackers. Variable light regulation gives you a cozy glow up to the power of an 80W light bulb, and the burner is almost soundless. Features quality parts such as a glass globe and brass connector threads. Conveniently uses the same isobutane canisters as the Primus stoves, sold separately."

From US Outdoor Store:
"Description of Primus EasyLight™ LanternEasyLight has a patented, virtually silent burner. The lantern provides variable light output up to 80 W.

"What can I say. I still have mine from the early '80s and it still works like new. Mantles are a little expensive but in a pinch I've actually modified a cheap Coleman to fit."

"What can I say. . . Primus manufactures a great product! I've been using this lantern for some time and have found it to outperform most in its class. It has superior light output to others, great solid carry case, and a matching fuel efficiency to most in the isobutane class."

"Work exactly as it was meant to. Comfortably soft but bright light thanks to the simple but yet effective white-glass globed design. Easy to pack and set up, fuel efficient. A big bang for the bucks product."

"Or also known as PTL-2245. I first purchased the brunton mantless lantern. Brunton say's it's a little tricky to lite--a little? I couldn't even light a flame, let alone keep it lit! Mantle lanterns are the way to go!!!They're easy to fit the mantle on the torch head, for some it's a hassle."
