Review: Nice Lantern! - This is a nice lantern. I have used it several times. No issues. It puts out a decent amount of light
Review: Great Lantern! - This lantern is perfect for my use. We have two of these, one blue and one black, and use them while camping for mosquito control. We use the TIKI BiteFighter fuel, which has citronella and cedar mixed in the oil. It burns perfectly fine, and they seem to do a decent job of keeping the mosquitos at bay. The lanterns light easily, and run for quite a long time off of one fill of fuel. I haven't yet run them down, so I can't comment on just how long they'll run, but they've been used across several weekend camping trips running for several hours or more every evening and still have fuel in them, so I'll count that as a win. They also put out good light, which can be controlled via the wick adjustment if you need more or less light. They also fit perfectly in our camper, with the two lanterns fitting standing up in the desertcart box one of them was shipped in, so that's a plus for me.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What kind of oil does it use?**
A: Kerosene, clean burning lamp oil, paraffin oil, even a citronella blend

**Q: Can citronella oil be used?**
A: From what I’ve heard yes, in fact unlike Aladdin lamps, hurricane lanterns can burn almost anything save for anything that’s as explosive as gasoline. So your Dietz lantern will probably burn transmission oil, vegetable oil, used motor oil and of course citronella.

**Q: It’s a great lantern after 2 months  it appears it is leaking at the bottom seam what should I do return it ?**
A: I had an older lantern that started leaking. I drained the reservoir, dried it as best I could, poured some spar varnish in, and rotated the lantern to make sure it settled into the rim. After letting it dry for a week or so with the lid off, it never leaked again.

**Q: What width wick does this take?**
A: As stated in the description, it takes a 7/8 inch wick only.  You can buy them on Amazon either precut to length, or in 6 foot rolls and cut your own to 8 inch lengths.  As long as you don't let the lamp oil or kerosene run out, a wick will last a pretty long time.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Exactly what I expected. Great product.
*by A***R on December 3, 2024*

I bought two of these, and use both. They're durable enough to do evening ranch chores, yet nice enough to show off on the fireplace mantel. They're easy to use, and I have had no problems with leakage. The glass seems thick enough, and has been put to the test bumping around when I feed horses. I would set them under anything flammable, especially when first lit, but they don't pose a fire hazard if used with common sense. They're not a propane lantern, so don't expect a super bright light, but they emit enough light to see immediate surroundings outside, and enough to see the room comfortably in a power outage. The trade-off for less light than mantle lanterns is soft light in a more durable and very nice looking lantern. I recommend storing them inside, or using lantern oil instead of paraffin if it's cold, as the paraffin will congeal below around 10°F.
