Summary

This little guy is lightweight, powerful, and bright. Can't beat it with a stick!

Pros

  • Compact
  • Bright
  • Dimming
  • Versatile

Cons

  • Can't think of any—unless you're an ultralight packer

There isn't much negative to say about this lantern, unless you are going ultralight. For car camping, Scout trips and short backpacking where weight isn't as much of an issue, this product is outstanding.

It is tiny, lightweight, and bright. It has two small hooks which make hanging it from rope at dinner or the inside of a tent a breeze. Battery life isn't much of an issue, especially if you use the dimming feature...just hold the button for your desired brightness.  

You'll want to bring it on every trip!
