I cant find my link to a thread where someone asked about lanterns.  It was mentioned that the lantern asked about was much better than any Dietz.  Dietz are now made in China and the lantern mentioned is still made in germany.  There was a link to what appeared to be some kind of surplus website.  Anyone know what I am talking about?

Finally found it.  Not the thread but the lantern I was looking.  Of course it is now backordered until June.

I purchased 5 of those style Lanterns when D.O. first offered them, in 1998 or 99,  with the West German stampings. They are very nice Lanterns but didn't put out as much light as I expected. Regardless, I want to get a few more just to have on hand.

Good Luck.
