We bought a small Coleman a few years back. Found it at Walmart I believe. Fan with 2 speed settings, 3 bright white led's and a yellow one for low light. (sets the mood you know)   ;)

I have probably the same Coleman one for the car camping tent.

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield

We use two deep cycle batteries and an inverter.  Then we just run a regular 13w flourescent bulb works well been doing it for years.  You can charge your phones and you just hit the switch for light.

I hate battery powered lanterns with a passion, they are just lame....

I have an alaknak 12x12 with vestibule and I rock an Eco fan and small backpacking style gas lantern... If the alaknak is up, the wood stove is in it which means the thermoelectric fan will have power to move air, and in something as small as an alaknak, a fan with 100 cfm or so is more than sufficient to move the hot air from the wood stove around, it's lighter than a battery powered fan, and never needs battery's.... Ever.


This what I have and couldn't be happier

I've had my alaknak in single digit temps before, and between my wood stove (Colorado cylinder stove), the stack robber cook oven, a shovel full of briquette, and that fan moving the air around, it gets almost too warm, but I swear by that fan, and it goes anywhere my alaknak does


catch it. kill it. cook it. eat it.
Forget the bear spray, use wasp killer. Concentrated delivery stream, 10X the product, and only $3.00 on sale.
