- Old School Camping. These are the Coleman Catalytic Heaters. In the late 60s through to the mid 80s these heaters played a big part in reducing the dampness and keeping you warm on them cold nights when staying in a tent or tent trailer. Camping and Coleman were always part of each other. Cooking your food, lighting up the evenings while keeping you warm throughout the night.

Those 431s are good for ice fishing. You have a nice collection. Thanks for showing us and take care.
Thanks Quinn.
Great collection , thanks for sharing , God bless !
Thanks Michael. God Bless you and your family as well my friend.
Almost had a heart attack when the brand spanking new heater almost fell off the porch.
at 5:44 hahaha yeah almost lost it, it did freak me out a bit.
Wow! Those are really nice! I’ve never seen that style before. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for dropping by Kat. These are popular here where I live. I just looked into what seems to be popular in the US and it looks like it's the Vintage Coleman 513A Catalytic Heater 3000/5000 BTU. I may have to get one of those. LOL Have yourself a good week. We are to get snow here tonight, it's cold and damp right now.
@@danielcharbonneau222 Oh, snow!!! Seems like you were just harvesting your vegetables. Winter sure comes fast. Is it early for you?
@@KatInTheNorth Mid October brings the low single digits temps. I've seen it snow on the third week of October and stay till spring {not normal} Snow in mid November does stay till spring here. 6 years ago I have video of our family playing lawn Croquet on Christmas day { plus 15C - 60F } Totally not normal ! We normally would have 3 feet of snow everywhere. I have a picture of me on the 20th of April standing in my driveway and the snow banks are 7' high. LOL Picking tomatoes one day shoveling snow the next LOL Thanks for dropping by Kat.
@@danielcharbonneau222 Wow! It’s been a long time since we have seen 7 feet of snow! You just never know 🙂
Nice assortment... I only have one and was intimidated lighting it the first time..lol Need to dig it out and play with it some and familiarize myself with it in case it is needed...
I have a none insulated garage and ventilation, well lets say NOT a problem. LOL I light up the red 3000 in the winter, 30 minutes later and the shop is nice and comfortable to work in. Just can't light them indoors! Sometimes the flames are a foot high before it settles down.
Hit that like button ⭐️✨️⭐️👍
Thanks.
I just bought a 518 c For 10 bux and it works great
That's a big score, right on. Yeah I like these heaters, works great. Thanks for dropping by. Have yourself a great day.
I remember my parents using those heaters in their Volkswagen Beetle in the early 70’s hahaha air cooled engine in the back lol. I had a couple that looked quite a bit different but were Colman not sure where they are anymore.
I went looked up ones I had they just called 5000 or vintage 1977 avocado green. Bunch of them on e bay
Matt I grew up in the 60s and 70s camping with my parents, these Coleman heaters were lite every night to take out the dampness and heat up our beds for the night. For me the looks, the smell and the sound of the lanterns, that's what camping was all about. I did notice that there are a few different styles out on the market. Thanks for dropping by my friend. Have yourself a good week.
Hey my friend. I just posted a video of me making Habanero Red Pepper Jelly and mentioned your name. I hope it was alright Matt.
@@danielcharbonneau222 sure thing buddy 👍🏻 thanks,I’m headed back from the woods will check it out soon.
Nice collection! Could you tell my the model numbers of the 4 heaters you showed? Thank you.
The little Red one 3000 BTUs is a 518E. The new and older ones are the 3000-5000 BTUs they are the 513K. The last one that's a 5000 BTU and its a 516K. These all run on White Gas. Thanks for dropping by Michael. Have yourself a good weekend.
@@danielcharbonneau222 Thanks for the info. I just picked up a 512a (3500 btus) and love it. That '73 of yours is mint!
@@michaelfox7925 I know I was very lucky. I will be keeping it mint for sure. 512A, I like that one. Hum, I may have to get one for my collection. LOL
I can't find any info on giving one of these a tune up. Mine produces only minimal heat even when set on high. Anybody got any info?
First off, which one are you having problems with. I have three different ones. The 3000BTUs, the 3000 - 5000BTUs and the 50000BTUs {with proper ventilation} These are good in-regards to warming up a tent, camper or small sheds and will take out the humidity / dampness in the early mornings when you want to sleep in a bit or start making breakfast / coffee. Just to give you an example check out the Mr Heater. These come in 3800BTUs, 9000BTUs 11000BTUs and the big one is 18000BTUs these ones run on the 1 pound propane bottles. These through off good heat.
On the 518 that you use in your tent once fully warmed up is the whole head supposed to glow a bit or just the edges?
These heaters once light the entire head glows. I'll put together a short video together lighting it up and seeing the wick glow at night. the 513K 3000 - 5000 and the 3000 do react a bit different.
The center of my head doesn't glow. I wonder if that means it's fouled up. I'd say th top 30 degrees of it are probably not glowing.
@@GreenLegendRan OK right now its 00:35 Dec 9th I'll get right back to you in the next 48 hours. I'll do a light up and burn (video) and post you the link. It sounds like your main wick maybe giving you the problem.
@@GreenLegendRan Here is a quick video I just put out for you. Hope it helps. You can buy replacement domes for these heaters. Check out ebay. ua-cam.com/video/RBfEJkUh2UQ/v-deo.html
Lol, I gotta ask: WHY do you have so many units? I am all for keeping a primary, secondary and backup on lanterns, stoves and heaters on long trips. Beyond that, however...
Hahahahaha I collect as a hobby. So you don't want to know how many canvas tents, knives, Military canteens, mess kits I own. That alone will make you scratch your head. LOL Thanks for dropping by Justin. Have yourself a great day.
Because he's a Gearaholic, like most of us are Fire bugs as well.😂
Are they able to run on kerosene or b100 biodiesel?
All I've ever used is white fuel.
What fuel do they use? can I use Citronella Lamp Oil???
I use Coleman White Gas.
Ok thanks so much! I appreciate it
