BRAND NEW / AMISH MADE

This amazingly bright lantern was handmade in Lancaster County, PA, by H.C. Lanterns. This bright two mantle lantern features a heavy gauge stainless steel tank with seamless bottom, a stainless frame and hood, a double head burner and a large fuel cap to make refueling a breeze. This lantern has a large two liter fuel tank and the bottom of the tank is shaped to create a fuel reserve so when the lantern starts to run out of fuel you can tip the tank and get a few more minutes of light. The lantern utilizes the HC 500 Head and has two knobs. The black knob is a positive fuel shut-off and wire hand L-Shaped knob is for the pricker to clean the jet. This lantern is all Stainless Steel and Brass construction so it will last forever, here is another lantern you will pass onto your grandchildren!

I am pleased to offer this lantern for sale as a buy it now. I will make every effort to ship them out the same or next day. I sell replacement globes, generators and mantles for this lantern. This lantern has been pressure tested and fired up once to make sure it works properly. Please ask me any questions you may have about the lantern before you make your purchase. If you need spare parts for these lanterns, just send me a message.

There is no website for this lantern. The Amish have no electricity and therefore, no access to the internet. They work through a second party (as a rule), this is their belief. Very few worldly comforts but very nice people.

I have had many requests for the Nitehawk 720, a two burner lantern. Unfortunately it is no longer made. In my search for a two burner lantern I was redirected by one of my customers to this amazing lantern ~ thank you Greg!
