This is a Lantern offered by Accessorise Your Life(AYL). It is a lanter designed for camping and fishing for the most part. It is a very bright LED light source. It provides 300 Lumens of lighting power. If you have it on a long time the plastic sheild could get warm. The light offers over 100,000 hours of use. A money-back guarantee plus a lifetime warranty was included with my purchase.
The light has 3 modes of lighting. The first one is a low power setting that is still fairly bright. The second is the higher level of lighting power that is bright. The third is a strobe light to drawn attention incase of an emergency if needed. It is very simple to switch between the light settings by pressing the on button again for each time you want to change the setting.
The intial set up of the lantern is very easy. All it requires is putting the batteries in the bottom of the lantern in the proper way. Then put the bottom back on the lantern. As you do this make sure to line up the 2 markers to make sure it is back on correctly. The battery compartment is semi water resistant so it can be a bit more difficult to put on then most lanterns.
The lantern is great for camping and fishing since it is rather small but still provides a great deal of light. It is safer then the old oil lanterns because if you knock it over you do not have to worry about fires or burning yourself when accidently bumping the lantern. I have used this lantern under the hood of my truck when I was having an issue. The lanter has a plastic hook in the bottom of it that works great to attach to the hood latch. Once I hooked it to the bar for the hood latch I removed the lense and it made for a decent light to see to fix my radiator hose. There is a regular swing handle for the lanter as well that works great in tents with tie straps at the top. Since these are very light weight you can tie them up and have the lantern up in the air to light the whole tent and be out of the way when moving around in the tent. These lanterns will be great the next time a thunder storm decides to blow in and take out the electric.
My one and only complaint with this lantern is there is not a clip on shield of some kind. It would be great if it had this kind of attachment when you on the fishing bank in the middle of the night so you are not blinded.
If you are looking for a better more environmentally safe lantern for unlimted uses this is a great one to start with. Great for hunting, fishing, power outages, working on a vehicle, emergecy situations, and many more. I would like to thank Accessorise Your Life and affiliates for sending me this lanter to try out and leave my opinion.
