EnergizerFolding LED Camping Lantern, IPX4 Water Resistant Lanterns for Camping, Fishing, Outdoors, Power Outage, Compact and Portable Tent Lights

I bought this light 4 years ago and it still works like a charm. Came in handy when hurricane Milton knocked power out. Great feature of adjustable lighting the night light is great, as the main light is super bright and can light a large room easily.

Updated review: 2/13/2013 - PRICE HAS COME DOWN OVER $5 TO A MANAGABLE $19.88 - but make sure you spend another $5 or so to get the free shipping this is sold by amazon. Everyone should have more than one type of emergency lighting in a family to cover all your needs.Original review:Start off - not cheap, not cheap in price (cost), NOT cheaply made either. You get your monies worth but it takes a few uses to get the full effect & benefits.The upright front facing light (bulbs) at first seem like poor design, however, since it has significant weight to it when you lift the front to expose the doublesided lighting it doesn't tip over (which you might think will happen) but DOES NOT. It is VERY stable. When it is lifted completely upright and vertical it lights up a small/medium sized room, but many more reasonably priced lanterns do that too (I own a few by energizer).For TASK or AREA lighting it is GREAT - place on dinner table and lift half way up (in an inverted L) it lights the table beautifully. You can read by it in the same manner. The bulbs are bright and can affect your eyes so the lifting of the bulbs to a more upward angle is the best position for really close work. It does have a reflective mirror backing behind the bulbs when closed it makes it reflective enough if above your head on a cabinet or frig to cast a fairly bright light out forward, but casts shadows so close work is impossible (like meal preparation or hygene issues).This lantern is not a universal light or lantern you'd rely on alone but is an excellent companion to other emergency lighting used for general illumination.Battery compartment is behind the mirror and what gives it the weighted stand needed to open the light up, be careful turning the plastic screws on the mirror backing when changing batteries.Added bonus: Girls a good self defense item if you are alone in the dark - nice & heavy with a good grip if you need it! lol

Great light, like the ability to position the light where I want it.

I live in a hurricane zone and even near misses can result in power outages sometimes lasting days. This is my second lamp as I purchased the first one several years ago and liked it so much that I decided to have two. They provide an amazing amount of light using just 4 D cell batteries. I also like the night light feature as it makes the lamp easy to find in total darkness. Battery compartment is easy to access and makes replacing batteries a snap.

Solid, comfortable to handle and carry, non water-resistant (would be perfect, if it was water resistant, as this lantern, then folded, provides much more useable forward illumination, that is shining and illumiaating mostly forward and is not blinding to your eyes, as comparing to regular Energizer 360 water-resistant Aa/D size lantern or Coleman CPX 6 Easy Hanging LED 200 lumen 4-D-size lantern) lantern, accepts four D size batteries. Sufficiently bright, not as bright as my old Coleman CPX 6 Easy Hanging LED 200 lumen lanter, but is lighter, more comfortable to carry, shines forward if folded and does not blind you, and will suffice in most conditions of NYC apartments. Energizers' lanters are the only lanters utilizing an ingenious one small led night light ( you have 8 white led and 1 orange night light led inside, and can cycle full brighness/low/nightlight). That nightlight led makes sure in complete darkness you are always aware of the environment, location of the lantern, and is great for kids to not get them scared in complete blackout - very useful feature, often overlooked by reviewers. If you have small children, most of them are afraid of the darkness, this is the one to get to use with them, or another Energizer lantern with the same orange led nightlight feature, there are several of them, like Energizer 360 lantern, all are very good. Very affordable, excellent value. Highly recommend. I had bought 3 of them, and 2 solar models of this same lantern.Update on non-power regulated voltage :I had found out from NLee the Engineer review this lantern is not power regulated voltage, meaning the lantern will use the batteries faster and inefficient, but I guess for the price of this lantern is not to be expected. I will try the lantern longevity with Eneloops Pro or Amazon Basics High-Capacity inside D-size adapters (2 AA inside one D-adapter), once batteries will go through break in mode on Skyrc NC2500 charger. I live in NYC in Zone A, so I am stacking up just in case.Update for AA rechargeable batteries use:Runtime when using AA rechargeable batteries, Amazon Basics High-Capacity, confirmed discharge capacity 2450+ MAh, with a D adapter (1 rechargeable per adapter loaded for testing purposes, so 4 AA rechargeables total) on high is 3 hours full-light-output, after initial 3 "bright" hours it is dimmer and dimmer, useful to somewhat 2 feet-away-illumination around it for another 12 hours, and is on for next 15 hours, useful only as a night light.Will update with 8 batteries (2 per adapter) and for low light output longevity later.

Ilumina bastante en su modo alto 1000 lm en su modo nocturno es también útil la luz ámbar que ofrece, es una pequeña luz útil en la oscuridad. El que tenga posibilidades de cargar un dispositivo usando la carga de la linterna lo hace especialmente útil le añade un plus, explico por qué, las pilas D que utiliza ofrecen gran capacidad de carga. Los materiales se sienten resistentes sin llegar al uso rudo, debe tratarse con cuidado para mantenerla sin rayones o fracturas que si se te cae posiblemente se rompe porque pesa bastante con las pilas D. Un pequeño golpe sin problemas lo resiste. Entre los inconvenientes que halle los reduzco a la tapa de las pilas, hay que hacer bastante presión para recolocarla.

I am very happy with this product. I use it for a night light.

This is a very efficient flashlight, extremely bright and I would certainly recommend it.

Funciona genial y desdoblando la linterna ofrece luz 360 grados

This little lantern far exceeded my expectations! Lot of light, very practical design and tough. I drag it all over in a dirty rough crawl space.
