Ultra Bright LED Lantern - LED Camping Lantern,Portable Bright 30 LED Camping Light Flashlights for Hiking, Blackouts and Emergency (Gray)

Don't be fooled by the smaller size of these lanterns. (They are about the size of a large can of beans.) The smaller size for me was a good thing because I would not have a place to put a giant ten pound lantern except in storage and it would never get used again. The smaller size with the smaller batteries is also a plus if you are planning on a smaller child using this or carrying. I was really skeptical at first because the price on this was a real steal. I needed a lantern for a camping trip and everything I was looking at was over $30. Then I saw these. These are super bright. I got them for camping but I can see using them for Halloween, in case of emergency when the power goes out, just to keep in the car for emergencies, and hosts of other uses. They use three AAA batteries (not included) but hey I have scads of AAA batteries around the house at any given time. The AAA batteries are a deal sealer for me, I really did not want to spend $40 on a lantern and then another $15.00 on batteries. I can't believe how bright they are, I am so glad I bought a pair.

Small enough to store away or carry around but bright enough to help on emergencies.

Wonderful for our camping trips and the tent!

Wow !!! This is excellent. I got it for camping, normally I love to carry around flammable fluid that could burn my car and campsite down, no need to with this led light. It is really really bright, had batteries running for hours and never dimmed. It was so bright in the tent I lowered this so just the top leds barely showed and that was plenty of light to read by. Handles are great for carrying otuside the tent along the trail or wherever, closes up real nice, no need for a switch just open and close. There are a few of these on this site, one of them is marked as #1 best seller but they are all the same and this was far cheaper than the other for same exact product. We keep it in the family room in case the lights go out whihc they do alot here in CA. Perfect for that or just mood lighting!

Very bright. Compact. Batteries last a long time. Needs some kind of shade if looking towards it, if not able to hang the lamp behind eyesight.

This is just a terrific light at a very reasonable price. I have owned many camp lanterns for many years starting with the old Coleman fuel models and have switched to LED's in the past years because they are smaller, quite and cheaper to run. This runs on three AA batteries and does so for many hours. The on off switch is just a matter of opening it a no brainer. Good bright general lighting, it does not focus but does a wonderful job, especially for the price.

Compact with easy on/off design function. I bought one initially and then bought 2 more after checking it out. I like how compact it is without feeling too flimsy. I used this camping this past weekend and it was bright enough to light up a 10 person tent. Initially when you pull it on it looks very bright but as soon as I put it above my head the flood on the light fades a bit but was still bright enough to use in the tent. I kept it on for a good 3 hours and the light was not hot. I also like the fact that you can just extend the lantern full length to expose all the LEDs or shorten it to adjust the amount of exposure you need. The lantern is great for placing in stationary position but I would not recommend it to light up a pathway during a night hike. Overall I am pleased with this product.

Very pleased with this lantern - it provides intense light, and can easily keep a small room lit. I'm happy that AA-batteries are becoming the standard for lanterns such as these (no more worrying about different battery sizes depending on the device in question). It's small, and therefore very compact - easy to store, or even carry inside a back-pack. If anything, it might be a bit too bright; I'm still fond of my old-school Coleman battery-operated lanterns (even though they require four D-batteries, if I recall). If anything, both compliment each other.
