Lantern / Bat Lantern from Mil-tec

Bring the coziness on your next adventure.

A well-known lantern / bat lantern from German Mil-tec.
The soft, calm, and warm light that the bat lantern/lantern emits is really gentle on your night vision. A headlamp can sometimes be too harsh and it definitely kills the coziness when you’re sitting by the campfire wanting a quiet moment. Even at maximum brightness, the lantern is not disturbing in any way, and you can turn the flame down so much that the light is barely visible anymore.

Remember to get some extra wicks for the lantern, which you can find HERE
Lamp oil for your bat lantern can be found here

If you are looking for a Lantern Holder / Spike, you can find them HERE, by the way, it is hand-forged.

A clear advantage of the lantern is

...that the bat lantern shines for ages. At least it feels that way, as it easily lasts through the nights of a whole weekend. If you sleep under the open sky, it can be really cozy to have the lantern lit all night, and even the next morning there is plenty of lamp oil left for it to easily last another night.

Personal experience with the bat lantern

In my world, the two bat lanterns are an essential part of my trips. If there is room for them, they come along—every time! Originally, I got two as Christmas gifts, one from my brother and one from my mother. They immediately asked if one should be exchanged, but I was certain. The two were meant to stay together and follow me around, forever. I only use my headlamp when I need strong work light; otherwise, I let the campfire and the two oil lanterns do the job for me.
