Hi

I can confirm it is still available though hard to find. They were selling cans of it for $25 at the Sydney Caravan and Camping show this week. Can't remember which one of the stores had it.

The difference between the 424 model and the 414 model is that the 424 model is physically much smaller than the 414 model which is an advantage if space is at a premium. I suspect however that the 424 model is currently not available in Australia as it is not listed on the Coleman web site.

Regards
Allan

 We suggest that if you are storing your appliance for more than two weeks, pour as much fuel as possible from the tank back into the fuel can. Emptying most of the fuel from the tank through the filler hole is usually sufficient . This will help reduce the build-up of lacquer. In order to totally empty the fuel tank, you will need to run the lantern or stove until the tank is empty and burned dry. Then, pump up the tank and store under pressure. This will help to keep the fuel lines clear

I rang rays and told them in no uncertain terms was not happy paying $164 bucks 3 weeks ago and now they have them at $100. Rays said "no worries" drop in and we will refund the difference  ;D

We have had the dual fuel stoves for a number of years now. I think we paid about $280 for our first stove. Full size 2 burner. I found a smaller 2 burner for sale at a garage sale and paid $50 for it. Then recently whilst  camping out at Wivenoe Dam we ventured into Fernvale for the local markets and found a 3 burner for $25. I'd never seen a 3 burner dual fuel stove before so grabbed it for the price.

My wife sometimes finds them a bit harder to get started than a traditional gas stove but loves cooking on them when going. Coleman fuel stored in the front toolbox and we have not gone through 1 tin as yet.

Seems like rays are out of stock on the lantern but I've already paid for it and delivery.
They just emailed me and offered me the Northstar lantern ...I'm just confirming it's for the same price as it retails for 200 slides
