UCO Original Brass Candle Lantern

The Classic UCO Lantern, Built in Brass

This is UCO's original design — a collapsible brass candle lantern that folds to 4.25 inches and opens to 6.5 inches, burning a standard UCO candle for up to nine hours. The sliding glass chimney makes lighting straightforward, the spring-loaded candle tube keeps the flame at a steady height, and a viewing slot shows how much burn time is left.

Brass construction adds a bit of heft and durability over the aluminum version, while delivering the same warmth and condensation control inside a tent. A carrying handle, hanging hook, and twist-lock base make it easy to set up wherever light is needed — mountaineering, backpacking, or snow camping included.

Best for

• Backpacking, mountaineering, and snow camping
• Warm ambient light without batteries
• Cutting condensation inside a tent
• Anyone who wants the original UCO design
