Hi,

I've been looking online at the UCO collection of candle lanterns as normal candles blow out too easily and the warm, flickering light from a real flame seems more appealling than the cold harsh light from an LED or bulb lantern. Anyway, what I would like to know is - can you get a pole which can be pushed into the ground with a hook on the end to hang such lanterns while camping? About waist / chest height would suffice. I've tried the search engines briefly but without any joy.

Thanks

I purchased something like what you are describing from our local garden centre.I think its intended purpose was to hold a bird feeder.

I got one from Argos a while ago now.  Comes in three parts which screw together and cost about £2.50 I think.

I have  a UCO Candle Lantern and it's brilliant . I also got the neoprene cocoon for it to go in 

I use a 3 piece screw together thing I got from Asda last year , but it's not as high as you want .

Thanks everyone, that's plenty of leads for me to follow - and just what I was looking for (even though I didn't know the 'technical' name for them)
