Spares, kero heater, MagLites

Zero Deed For The Day: Got part and model #’s for replacement globes for my Coleman propane lantern (#214A0461) and Coleman Dual Fuel lantern (#690A048) so I can pick up spares today. Also copied down their respective model numbers (5154 and 295 series) so that I can get mantles that will fit *both* interchangeably (#21A122 or #21A104). And while I’m getting spare globes, I may as well pick up the protective carrying case to keep them from getting broken in the first place.
======================
Fired up the kerosene heater and lamps yesterday to make sure they were in good working order. (ZDFTD for yesterday) I do like those Alladin lamps…they throw out a good amount of light and some extra heat. I need to add extra wick, mantles, chimneys, wick tool, reservoir cap and flame spreader to my list of spares.
=====================
I’ll be heading up to CostCo today. They have MagLite combo packs on sale…$19.95 gets you a MiniMag, a D-cell MagLite and Duracell batteries for both. A good deal.
