I tried for ages as well. The only sites stat seemed to have them were in the US. What I eventually found was a strong compressed cardboard box about 3 cm bigger than the lamp. All I do then is fill the gap with some large bubble wrap. I would however still get the proper box if I managed to find one at a reasonable price.
hi they dont bring the hard top version into the uk any more havent for 6 years they do do a canvas soft case for them now which we stock at 14.99 at www.camping-online.co.uk
Crumbs our Coleman rechargeable thingy only came with a cardboard box.......I'm feeling quite inadequate now...
But if it's any help, (it won't be!), we bung our Camping Gaz lantern in a shoe box with bubble wrap around the glass bit. Course, ya gotta get someone with feet big enuff to fit the thing first though
Thanks guys, saw one on ebay, (with dual fuel lantern), missed out on the end of the auction thanks to a phone call and it sold for only 21 quid.
How gutted am I ?????
There's a woman called Sue who sells alot of Coleman gear on Ebay - might be worth emailing her to see if she can get them.
I have the 295 Duel Mantle Powerhouse - bought it in the US and got the hard plastic case at the same time - I notice though that you have to get the right one as the cases are model specific - the base of the lantern clips into the base of the case and you can use it like that too giving added stability. There's also a gap in the base between the base of the lantern and the base of the case designed for storing your matches and spare mantles - really great bit of kit and provides good protection for the lantern.
