This light is awesome!! I do a lot of camping, hiking, and backpacking and this is perfect!! It is lightweight, under 5 ounces and works flawlessly!
It has two uses, as a lantern or as a flashlight. I plugged it in to charge it the first time. I am not sure how long it took to fully charge as I plugged it in before I went to bed and I have solar charged every time since. It says it lasts 10 hours and I don't doubt it. I have never ran it down yet so I can tell it lasts.
I like the fact that you can use it for a charger for your phone in an emergency. I tried it and it does charge, (Samsung Galaxy S5). I didn't keep it plugged in so I am not sure how much of a charge it will give you but I do know it charges it. It has three modes, high, low and flash. I usually keep it on low because I use it in the woods and it is more than bright enough for me. It is extremely bright when on high.
The way it comes up reminds me of the Kool-aid mix in container drinks of the 80's or 90's I can't remember which. It works really well and extends to be a good size lantern. I am more than happy with this lantern! I think it is a must have for a camper, hiker, or prepper. I love it and recommend it to anyone wanting a quality rechargeable light.
I received the lantern at a discount price or free in exchange for an honest review.
