Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons
The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

Works awesome. Works with 1 or 2 brisk flicks of the striker arm knob every time it is slid up into lighting position near the mantles. Works well in lighting coleman lantern.

The flint is kinda week. Then you get a fireball coming out the top. Hours of fun entertainment with a bottle of hairspray as the igniter. Retract the sparker after lighting for a long life.



Cons

Poor machining on the knurled knob. Not enough room to twist the spark igniter. Hard to spin the striker.

The brass needle used in the valve to close off the air pump looks like it was was machined with a dull cutting tool and never finished. The flint that comes with the product is junk.

No spark at all. Replace it with one out of a bic. Don't buy this, get an old one off of ebay.

This only fits one model, the 200a. Will not work on quickpack deluxe lanterns. Oh yes, it's for a 45yo coleman lantern not for spuds.

Good for the shareholders, bad for the user. Coleman no longer understands quality. I can understand going offshore to save labor costs but then to suffer a reduction in quality, it's a net loss.

    If you dont adjust this spinning stiker center height to the flint arm center you will not get sparks

    Once you find the sweet spot you must then tighten the screw in the finger knob with the knob against the outer tube of the lower striker arm


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    By following this instruction written here when you slide the striker arm assembly up to strike position the knob slides up flush to outer striker arm tube and holds striker to flint in the centered sweet spot when you spin the knob with a brisk twist

    To prevent this after installation and attachment of adjusted striker knob loosen the her nuts a little and twist the brass not the steel hex nut to limitposition the swing of flint holder to not bump rhe glass when spun then retirement the hex nuts fully

    Probably none of the above will make any sense until after you have read the instructions l seen diagram for your model and attempted assembly solely upon what the written coleman instructions fail to also mention

    When properly installed this works with 1 or 2 brisk flicks of the striker arm knob every time it is slid up into lighting position near the mantles
