LED Large Camping Lantern, Battery Powered, USB Charging, 800 Lumens, 200 Hour Runtime, Carabiner Handle, Hiking Gear, Emergency Light, Blackout, Storm, Hurricane

Bought this for our hurricane preparation (we live in NC). We had the chrome one but gave it to our daughter. This Red one (if you shop, you'll see the two) is brighter, and has the USB charging port in case you need to top up your cell phones while power is out at your house. Of course, this lantern can be used for camping, back yard parties, or as a service light in your attic/crawlspace, whatever. It is very nicely made, stable, easy to cycle thru the brightness options. Overall a really nice product, with lots of uses, and in an emergency, this lantern WILL give you lots of light. It uses 6 D cell batteries, so it's not wimpy when it comes to power and duration. If you are serious about having a portable light for such uses...THIS is the one to own.

This lantern shines very bright! I am pleased with the purchase.

I purchased two of these lanterns after spending 4 days without power during a winter storm. They are very well made and I like the three levels of light. We are all ready for the next bad storm. Would recommend them.

I tested it immediately which I suggest due to other reviews I’ve read. First thing was the USB port. Hooked up my hearing aid charger and it worked fine. The lantern doesn’t need to be lit to use the charger. The bright setting is blinding so if I use it I’ll need a screen of some kind. Maybe put it behind a flower pot? The two lower settings are much easier to work with. Takes 6 D batteries. Install the batteries with the negative end on the little springy part. The battery cover has a little guide slot that will only let it go on one way so makes it easy. Light weight is a plus. Says 200 hours of battery life. We’ll see how it does when I have to use the light and the charger. Over all, recommended.

Pretty bright. Lasts longer than other battery operated lanterns I've had. You can get almost there full charges for your phone if you don't use the light. Batteries are a pain to change. Fitting them in is no problem. But the bottom is so large you can't get your hand around it to screw it on. I can imagine someone with arthritis might have a problem. Maybe a crossbar across the middle you could grab hold of would help. I guess you could put it between your knees and use both hands. The bottom is also a little difficult to line up to put it back on.

Bought two of these for emergency preparedness. Used them recently when the electricity went out for a few hours. They worked great! Love that you can adjust the brightness. The phone charger also works well.

Works great, charges my phone, lasts all night - perfect for a disaster preparedness kit and power outages. I have now bought four.

The product seems fine, it is what I ordered. I have a huge problem with the delivery service of UPS. Over four days waiting, each day they said lies about my delivery. I am inclined not to use Amazon again if UPS are the carriers. The overall delivery experience was absolutely dreadful!
