Feuerhand Lantern
  
The Original Feuerhand lantern, made in Germany.

This solid and high grade lamp, gives you light for about 20 hours with a full tank.

Mike says...
" Great easy to use lantern for around camp or the BBQ area. I use Paraffin as a fuel - it is easy to fill and light. The lantern gives off enough light so you can carry it around camp and gives any camping trip that old-time feel. If you want a brighter light, choose a Coleman. "

Princeton Tec Helix Basecamp

Whether camping or playing a card game on the deck, the goal is to spend more time together with those who are important to us.

Helix Basecamp packs the latest LEDs, while the collapsible globe keeps the light soft on your eyes. This lantern’s collapsible legs raise the lantern up to ensure it lights up a wide area, while multiple hanging options add versatility. The power dial controls dimmable white and red LEDs in the same intuitive manner as old-school gas lanterns. Lockout prevents accidental activation.

Mike says...
" I purchased one of these for an Autumn campout and was so impressed that I bought another three. They pack down really well, give great light either white or red and can be hung or placed on a surface. They take 4 AA batteries (I use rechargeable ones), but if the charge runs out I can replace these with standard AA batteries. I also like the illuminous globe which makes the lantern easy to find in the night. Great piece of kit. "

Silva Compass Expedition 54
  
The compass we recommend is the Silva Type 54 sighting compass.

Mike says...
" When I am out, navigation is of paramount importance. The 54 gives me accurate bearings using the prism sighting within the compass housing. I have used one of these for nearly 30 years, and always carry a spare in my kit. "

Navigation Romer Card
  
Coupled with the compass Romer Card is an essential piece of equipment.

Mike says...
" Although the 54 has a romer built into the base plate, you can take and issue more accurate grid references with a romer card - always carry a spare. "
