I use the backpacking model from CampingGaz.  It puts out as much light
as the Coleman, but the pack it comes in is the size of two boxes of
kitchen matches put together.  The fuel is a propane/butane mix and
comes in a separate container.  It puts out as much heat as the Coleman,
though, and I'm not so sure that I would want to use it in a tent.  I
prefer it to the Coleman only because of the smaller size and easier
pack ability.  I just wish it came with a more environmentally friendly
fuel container.  A gallon of Coleman fuel will last a lot longer before
you have to recycle the container.

great
blue heron as she lifts uncertainly from the brilliant blue of a
mussel-shell beach witnessed only by the brooding, wet spruce....your
passage home seems as much back through time as it does through space.
