Are you sick and tired of the inferior and defective mantles that BriteLyt is selling for the Aida/Petromax/Hipolito/BriteLyt 500CP kerosene lanterns, that immediately blow a hole out of the bottom of mantle when initially lighting the lantern, or do not survive more than a single use or two before totally disintegrating? Try the Coleman #11-102C Mantles that Coleman sells for their Model 639B700 500CP kerosene lantern... they work superbly in the afore-mentioned lanterns, and cost considerably less as well!
In the (more than) three months that BriteLyt has been raving over at their Internet message board about their new so-called "superior Super Mantle" that they have been developing for these lanterns (which will cost about TWICE the price of their regular mantles), I have been using the EXACT SAME Coleman #11-102C mantle that I originally installed in my Hipolito 500CP kerosene lantern well over three months ago (with numerous lightings, and quite a few fuel-fills of use)... ironic, isn't it?
Update - February 1, 2006: BriteLyt has finally released their new so-called "superior Super Mantle" that they have been "developing" for these lanterns. Developing? No! These so-called "new" mantles that BriteLyt supposedly "developed" are made by Luxor... and are the exact same mantles that Luxor has been selling for years for these lanterns!
Read the Total Blather and More Total Blather of one of our so-called "educated" younger generation... a prime example of a "first-time voter" who will be voting in the upcoming presidential election!
Seriously folks, at the very least, click on the first link above and browse a few of the comments by this "educated" first-time voter. Then, after you've had your fill, read his first Hypocritical Blog Entry about nonviolence, peace, love, brotherhood, and singing Kumbaya in general. It's a scary concept that this is one who will be participating in the upcoming presidential election, isn't it?
How the hell much $$$ does this cost? Exactly who are his campaign contributors?![]()
