    Either I’m just bad at fettling or tilleys are WAY brighter than Coleman’s. I need to get me one. Also, is it just me, or is that a safety hazard.

    Thanks to all, but I have to say it's known as Brian's shed thank you, I really dislike man shed or cave, I know it's stupid, but so am I.
    Thanks again it great to here that people can still be happy during this time.

    And I thought you were a Coleman man, it's a lamp case.

    I meant, is it just a case, or is there a lantern inside.

    Oh I see, and yes there was, but sadly for you it was a Tilley. I suppose I could put this in it.

    Hey, I think Tilley lives matter too. I’m not lantern racist.

    Great answer I'm not either, but I must limit myself as a have a big enough problem, with all my other collections that I have and Tilleys are just one of them.

    A 300cp Coleman won’t produce less light than a 300cp Tilley unless something is not working correctly.

    I have a variety of lamps and lanterns, and use Coleman regularly. I find Coleman lanterns very bright and equal to, if not brighter, than Tilley if all is going well. The thing about Coleman is the tank is structured in such a way that you can run them at quite high pressure which allows you to squeeze out a bit more light from them (if they are working properly).

    You keep on fettling, this is how you end up! Looks really good mate, and you’re certainly keeping up the Australian shed tradition.
    I’ve got to seriously get my shed sorted out......
