LuminAID PackLite Max 2-in-1 Power Lantern
I bought my PackLite Max 2-in-1 online from luminAid as a backup power supply for charging up some of my electronic gear as I hiked. It served as a great source of lighting while in my tent after dark on the Appalachian Trail. I carry a couple of different solar panels while hiking and or canoeing and when I saw the luminAid online I liked what I saw. I thought it would make a good camp light and I don't have to worry about batteries going dead. Full review

Rayovac Indestructible Lantern DIY3DLN-BC
In the Beginning, on the 1st day, the Almighty Rayovac Created Light, and Rayovac saw that the light was good and it separated the light from darkness. And now all of humanity shall not perish in the darkness of night. This Rayovac is the best LED lantern that I own. It claims to be indestructible and waterproof, submergible up to 1 meter deep. When camping in a group, using headlamps for your primary light when sitting around the campfire only results in blinding one another with each other's headlamps. Full review

Energizer Weather Ready 360 Degree Area Light
Ok, so have you ever run out of batteries for your flashlight or lantern? Well, I surely have and it isn't pleasant doing things in the pitch black of darkness. It usually happens to me where I am either in the middle of nowhere or when all the stores are closed that would sell batteries. Well, the people at Energizer, the same people whose batteries you probably buy, made an LED lantern with this in mind: more battery options. This lantern comes with a multi-battery option using an included adapter… Full review

A battery hog. Waste of money. Full review

Ledlenser ML6 Connect WL
I’ve been using Lupine LED light systems for night MTBiking and other activities for more than a decade. It’s hard to beat the Germans when it comes to high-end LED equipment in terms of performance, quality, versatility, and reliability. When it was time to shop for a new camping lantern, I decided to choose one from Ledlenser, another German manufacturer with similarly good reputation, but in camping/backpacking light equipment. These high-end lighting German manufacturers have great pride… Full review

MPowerd Luci Explore
Lightweight, compact, and functional! I love how lightweight and compact this is. I can just toss this into my backpack and be set in terms of lighting, music, and phone charger. The wide range of lighting options are great and the mood setting is a nice bonus. The sound is okay, so this won't replace your bluetooth speaker, but it's a nice added feature. Durable, functional, and eliminates the need to pack a bunch of extra cords, which I appreciate. Full review

MPowerd Luci Explore
If you're looking for a reasonably priced Bluetooth speaker and light that can be charged by solar power, this light is a good deal. Audiophiles might have an issue with the sound quality, but it does the job. I used this light in several situations to test it out. Since I tend to travel in the Southwestern states in a Class A RV, there’s plenty of solar power to make this light shine. On a scale of 1 to 5, I rate the Luci Explore as a 4. The app is where the Luci Explore falls short for me, and… Full review
