Great lantern

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These lanterns are amazing. They are the perfect size and weight. They were clearly built well. They are extremely bright and have great easy controls to change the color of the lights to red and flashing setting.

Casting Shadows!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love these lanterns! There are three different brightness settings, but all are bright in their own right, and two S.O.S settings, one with a fast flash and one with a slow flash. These lanterns are pretty lightweight therefore travel pretty nicely. I love the different ways they can be charged. From the solar panel to usb-c, it takes only a couple hours for a full charge and, depending on usage, will last four hours. I left one on continously and it lasted about four hours!!

So bright!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These lanterns would be great while camping, sitting out by the fire, or if you are working on something and need extra light. They are so bright on their highest setting. They dim so they have 3 different light settings, and 2 red light settings. The fact that they are rechargeable AND solar charging is awesome. It feels very well built and not like cheap plastic. Overall, I really love these lanterns.

Great for outdoor activities!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] They were great for our camping site during night time if we need to have light on without wires. The best thing I love these lights are no assembly needed even for first use. I think it worth its values for these type of using purposes.

Functional and necessary

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These lanterns are highly praised for their impressive, 1000 lumen output, which is bright enough to illuminate large campsites or serve as a reliable primary light source during power outages. With a dual solar and USB-C charging offers, great versatility, keep in mind that the battery drains quickly on the highest setting, so they are best used on medium or low for long-term reliability.

U get what U pay for ..this will lite up your life

You get what you paid for …a pair of basic 1000 lumen dual power .lanterns with a modest waterproof IP54 rating The lanterns have two main power inputs - USB-C and solar The solar panel is somewhat protected when not in use. The solar charging status light is the same one that is used for USB-C charging status. It is hidden underneath the cover for the USB ports. There should be a dedicated solar panel power status light near the solar panel. On other lanterns , such as light helps one easily determine if the built-in battery is being charged via the solar panel energy output. The solar panel power output remains something of a mystery. What are the watts? Same goes for the output of the USB-A port. The USB-A port can charge an iPhone 12 Pro Max to some degree. Not enough power to start charging an iPad 7 or iPad 9, though. What are the watts? As noted earlier, this lantern has dual power sources. Some lanterns have battery compartments for C or D batteries for use as a third power source. This lantern lacks that feature. Again. This is a decent lantern for the money, but is lacking in some ways as noted above Maximum of 50 characters allowed in the review title

Very bright, great for traveling, camping, emergen

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These lanters are very impressive! They were so bright that I was startled right when I pressed the power button and it turned on. Definitely lit up my whole room. Not too big and bulky either making it good for traveling and not taking up too much space. I was also impressed by the red emergency lights included after pressing through the settings. It has 5 light settings including 2 red light ones. I am glad the charging will be easy as well since it uses the common charger cable type C that I use for my cellphone so will always have one with me and don't have to worry about not losing a specific charger.

exceeded my very low expectations by a mile

Was on sale, bought hoping they weren't terrible. Got home read they ran on a 18650, that made me happy. They looked like cheap plastic junk, and they kinda felt like cheap plastic. BUT the clear part feels like thick poly carbonate which was a huge surprise. I thought it was going to be one of those thin PET or something. Also the bottom and black side are rubberized. Good for traction and durability. Tested one by leaving it on all night, totally on purpose. I 100% didn't just leave it on by accident. I decided to let it sit out through the day and it charged. I have no idea how much but i was able to turn it on and go on our evening and night dog walks. Not sure if the 1000 lumens is correct but it is much brighter than what I expected. The low setting is plenty bright. I do wish that you could easily swap out the 18650 because I always keep a dozen of them charged for various devices. I completely get that they need to keep cost and parts down and an access panel would make it less water resistant. I plan to just leave these by the window and let them charge. Very curious if UV degrades them I didn't need more lights but these will definitely be the go to when the power goes out and our walks.

I loved the brightness when i I turned it on but unfortunately the charge at brightest setting will only last 3 hours max. I tested this after usibg usb to charge over 20 hours. Also, no indication of battery status. Not worth the purchase (money ; home clutter) for that amount of light time. Will still need candles or something else for longer times. The 6 HOUR CLAIM IS INACCURATE
