    Hello,
    So about a month ago I purchased 639 for a camping trip and it all went downhill from there. I have since acquired 275, and three 200As.
    I plan to convert one of them to 201, then set my sights on Petromax. Great site with a wealth of info.

    You've been well and truly bitten by the lampie bug but that doesn't matter, this is a fine hobby!

    I'd be very careful with the 275 as they have a reputation for turning into fireballs

    Agreed, @Big Ferd the 639 is probably my favourite Coleman and really puts out an excellent light!

    Hi @MichalNY

    Welcome to the forum.

    I do like the 200A and I also have a soft spot for the Turd.

    Good luck with your Petromax collecting, we will look forward to seeing your progress.

    Regards, Jeremy
