Etekcity Lantern Camping Essentials Lights, Led Flashlight for Power Outages, Battery Operated Lamp for Emergencies, Survival Gear, Hurricane Preparedness Items, Water Resistant, 2 Pack, Black

Perfect for if the power goes out or camping. The batteries are already installed, just remove clear plastic strip and it’s ready to use. Pull the canister up to use and you can adjust how much light you want by simply pushing it up or down - truly easy to use! Good quality, good size, has handles so you carry it or hang it up. I’m really happy I bought these.

I was surprised by how nice these little lanterns were for the price. The came with batteries, easy to install and get them up and running, TONS of light, just overall very happy with the purchase. To turn them on you just flip up the metal clips and pull up to open the light, the clips act as hangers, then easily close for storage. Impressive amount of light for something so small.

We got these for our camper. They have worked our perfectly. Bright and exactly what we wanted. Great size not to big not to small. Batteries seem to last a decent amount of time. Very lightweight and durable.

I bought a four pack of the Etekcity lanterns for my family of four to take camping. So far I am really liking these little lanterns. They were purchased as a replacement for a single rechargeable battery lantern by C***man that would no longer charge. Pros: Compact size (see others photos) - These are about the same size as a large consumer can (not a #10 commercial) of soup! Good light output for their size "Adjustable" light output (more details in the comments below) Easy to carry or to hang as needed Run on 3 "AA" batteries Good battery life Cons Easy to open further than desired thus releasing more light than needed Light is the typical blue-white of LEDs Emitted light has a x like pattern of shadow Although these lanterns are individually not nearly as bright as the previous one, the combined light output is significantly greater than the unit they replace and they are smaller. These units say that the light output is variable. This is sort of true. While you can adjust the amount of light you see coming out of the lantern by opening or closing the top of the lantern more or less, all of the LEDs are still running at full power. This will only matter if you are using this lantern while backpacking or otherwise away from a source of fresh batteries as there is no true low power mode. In addition, we found that the method for adjusting the amount of emitted light allowed the lantern to "fall" open while carried and increase the amount of emitted light sporadically. We also found that the light emitted from these is the typical very high color temperature (blue-white) light of LEDS. While this is not a true negative, we did find that these lanterns did significantly affect our color perception. Battery life appears to be good based on four days of camping and using these for at least 1 or 2 hours each night, along with the kids playing with them before and after the trip for a couple of days) with no noticeable drop off of brightness. The size and weight of these lanterns is excellent use back pack camping. My only concern would be battery life as I have not tested this yet. I have not yet tested the durability of these much yet. One was dropped from a picnic table on to grass and was fine but that is as far as we have tested them. I will update this review as I use these lanterns more and gain experience with them. if you have any questions feel free to ask me and I will try to answer.

I bought a four-pack of these Etekcity lanterns years ago and I love them. In fact I returned here today to purchase some more of them for a couple of my relatives. I have used mine for power outages due to severe winter weather and thunderstorms and these lights performed beautifully and illuminated the entire downstairs. One of my neighbors actually came over and asked if my electricity had somehow been restored and of course I said no, and that I have these awesome lanterns that throw a surprisingly amount of nice white light. He thought I had somehow had my power restored or that maybe I had a generator running because my downstairs looked so bright. He was so impressed that he ordered a four-pack of them too. I particularly like that the hue of these lanterns is a "cool white" which is a very white light; not that awful yellowish tint which I cannot stand. These are a nice white light similar to a fluorescent light. I'm pleased that these little lanterns throw a lot of white light. And the batteries will last quite a while too. I ran one of mine as a test for close to 50 hours non stop to see how long the batteries would last. I have Eneloop high capacity rechargeable batteries installed in mine and it works out very well as those are a very low self discharge type of battery and they hold their charge extremely well. LED's don't use a lot of "juice" so you'll get a lot of bang for your buck with these lanterns. You certainly cannot beat the price of them. I hope this might be of help to someone considering purchasing them. You'll be as pleased as I am, I'm sure. Happy lighting!

These camping lanterns are a must-have for power outages. They’re bright, easy to use, and give off plenty of light to illuminate a room. I love that they’re lightweight, portable, and simple enough for anyone to operate. The battery life is solid, and they’re great to keep on hand for storms, camping, or emergencies. Reliable, practical, and worth having around the house.

Love these. Great quality. Very bright. These came in handy when we had a black out. It lit up my whole living room. Not heavy at all and you can either hang them up or sit it on a flat surface. Can be used for any dark space that needs light

These lanterns are fabulous! So bright and easy to use. AA batteries make the economical as well.

I bought these for my elderly parents in law during a power cut when they lost light, heating and cooking. Candles were too much of a fire hazard. Hopefully when they have another power cut these will help light each room. They have a compartment in the top to store the batteries when not needed which is very helpful and they close down to a very manageable size to store. They are metal and not plastic and so feel sturdy when unscrewing the battery compartment etc. I liked them so much I have ordered some for myself and now my mother wants some too.

Muy prácticas cuando se corta la energía eléctrica, en lugar de poner velas. Es mi segundo pedido.

Loved the effectiveness of each light - variability in light produced, size and battery operation. Would consider for gift giving.

Better than expected
