Vehicle battery warmer--Coleman 520-498 military stove with a flue adaptor. If your 520 lacks pot supports you may have this variation. The flue is a tough find. Marine design cookstoves--Coleman 345 (kerosene), 348 (alcohol) Popcorn popper cart for vendors--made by Peerless Company and used Coleman or AGM urn burners (maybe pushing the categories/varieties of stoves a bit?) Here's a link to one: Another Iowa Popcorn Popper Floundering lamps--Tilley and many homemade varieties using Coleman table lamps and reflectors. Mike.
You don't believe Coleman ever made their own flounder lamps and retailed them? Thanks for the above mentions and no, I don't think you are pushing the limits, this is more or less why I started this topic so the limits could be removed. I had thought this topic may have been a bit more interesting and we could have sorted through the more common uses then began on the lessor known or the unknown (undocumented is perhaps a better word) As an aside, Do you know Warren Wright and the popcorn maker he has? I'll add you suggestions soon.

Australian @Carlsson Christer, at your convenience, would you please replace the chart in the OP with this updated one. @MikeO Does the 348 alcohol marine stove operate on pressure? I'd just like to add a note if it isn't a pressure appliance.
Hi Matty, The Coleman 347 alcohol stove is pressurized. For the Coleman marine/trailer stoves, the individual stove is numbered as a 347 (alcohol) and 344 (kerosene), and when assembled as the full kit (two stoves set in the sweet looking frame with grates and rails so your beans don't go flying in a storm) they were numbered 348 (alcohol) and 345 (kerosene). I believe Warren has traded his popper to another collector. Cool looking units! I'm not aware of any flounder/fishing lamps manufactured by Coleman. Several varieties have been found that look homemade, and perhaps there was someone in the Southern USA that made some as a cottage industry? Basically a metal bowl with a cut out to slide over the burner assembly of a lamp like a model 129, 139, etc. I'll see if I can dig up an image of one. Mike.
Mike, Thanks for the info on the stoves. I know that Coleman did manufacture fishing lamps including a flounder lamp which collectors today think is a home made job. To my knowledge, no other collector has images of speciality fishing lamps made by Coleman. That is apart from a couple of collectors I have entrusted by showing them the images. It will be without doubt that there are home made flounder lamps built out of Coleman parts. I do not contend that they are in anyway shape or form manufactured as fishing lamps by Coleman. I found Warrens corn popper for sale and wished I could have acquired it. Being in Australia, it wasn't going to be viable to buy the corn popper. I passed the heads up to Warren and he couldn't get there fast enough
