If you have a hurricane headed your way this little lantern will come in really handy
Useful in emergencies.
Overall much better than competitors' products.
Only let down by long battery recharge time.
For camping, use and then recharge while driving -- or hand crank. Light weight, good beam at 2 levels. Also good for hurricanes.

Great for power outages.
This lantern looked good but I followed all directions and charged it on the plug for 10 hours. It absolutely would not hold a charge for more than 4 seconds no matter what I did. Cranking allowed it to shine brightly while cranking and 2 seconds after. Perhaps I had a bad lantern but I will be returning this immediately.

This is one of the few LED lanterns that can use A/C as well as crank to recharge. After 6 months and several full discharges, it still puts out at least 1 hour longer than advertised. And I really like the fully charged indicator. Goodbye propane lanterns. I bought it for camping, but it's very handy for power outages.
