LIT-PaTH LED Camping Lantern, Rechargeable Light with Magnet Base, 4400 mAh, Survival Kit for Emergency, Hurricane, Outage, Large Green, 1 Pack

The media could not be loaded. If you are trying to make a fast decision, this little rechargeable light is it. It’s the size of a baseball. The highest level is a strong light. It has a solid red feature and a flashing feature. It’s a good value. End of short review. Keep reading for more information.Helpful tips for other uses beyond the obvious camping: shine the light on a jug of water or even a glass of water and the light will light up a larger space. An event planner could use colored water in a vase of water and create a magical table setting, or picnic table or during a burn ban - the red light creates the illusion of a campfire. Oh well... that’s not what you came to read so let’s get started.I specifically was seeking all the features in this light. I wanted a solid red light feature because red light does not blind my eyes at night. With a red light, I can still see the stars at night.One of my sons hates reading long reviews. He said”no one reads long reviews” - which is why he constantly returns items. My other son reads the reviews. If the reviews are honest, he’s thrilled with his purchases. I want you to be thrilled with your purchase. I want you to be happy with your decision. This review was a joy to write because the device was exactly what I needed and performed brilliantly. Another person may not need all the features that I need- yet. I’ll be buying more of this particular rechargeable lamps. If you are willing to read more - you’ll learn why and if not - stop here.Good for camping, office, home office, car, RV, van life, Skoolie, cruise, travel, bugout bag, boats, emergency lights, off-grid cabin, backyard bbq, walking, hiking, baby’s nursery, walking to bathroom at night, tent light, campfire light, RV and more. Yes, I plan to send this device to friends and family. We lost electrical power this summer on one of the hottest days of the summer meaning the nights were hot too. I am upgrading my emergency tech. Thankfully I go camping and my devices came to the rescue while neighbors’ kids were franticly separated from their video games. Disposable batteries had been used. I decided to upgrade to rechargeable and this time be sure to keep the power batteries charged at all times. I need all items to be useful for more than one task. I purchased this small lightweight rechargeable light and remain satisfied with my decision. Here’s why:Get free charging using solar or big battery generator. I use Rockport and Suaoki chargers also sold on Amazon to recharge the device.I like:- works as described- rechargeable with a lightweight easily shared cable- bright light can be reduced in intensity- solid red light for dark nights doesn’t blind my eyes- flashing red light option- lightweightI don’t like:The SOS signal isn’t US military specification according to someone who is a veteran. He said it’s “too fast.” I’m not an expert on SOS signals so I included a video for your review. Please comment below in my review section to let all of us know your opinion. That’s the only feature not to like. I would still use the red flashing light feature at the side of the road as a safety flasher.The story: Once there was debris on a rural highway. As night fell, my teen was driving and drove over the debris ruining the car. People were driving far beyond the speed limit and other accidents were caused. If I had this device in my bug out bag, hopefully I would have been able to prevent other accidents. Years have passed. He’s a great father and husband. I plan to order another one and ship it to his address and ask him to keep it in his fancy Audi just in case another teen makes his mistake and he finds himself needing an emergency light and flasher. Personally, everyone should have one of these devices in their car. I purchased this device for camping. I’ve ordered other rechargeable lights. This is the only light that I recommend to ride around in a car. Charge it every few months and it will always be ready to work.- About the handle: it looks weak. Because a similar design on another device broke at the base, I plan to create a stronger handle.The story: The clip is a nice design idea but the base of the clip is where another device broke the first time I used that other device on a camping trip. Now you understand my concern. When camping - you don’t want stuff to break and certainly don’t want stuff to break the first time you put the device into action. Yes, I know how to make things work and create workarounds. So in advance, I plan to create a new handle for the device. My mother now deceased used to say: “A word to the wise is sufficient.”The request: If you found this review helpful, or anyone else’s review helpful, please select the helpful button.The why: This easy action on your part is incredibly important to other consumers to let them know the review is worth reading and helps sellers and manufacturers create better products.Thank you for your time.Don’t believe the hype. Time is the only non renewable precious resource that we are born. Through human history, people will enslave people to steal their time. People will trade time for money. Time is your precious resource. This device will help you use your time wisely.I thank you for sharing your time reading and commenting on this review.

I may write a longer review later, but here is the bottom line: I buy these lanterns every time they go on sale.I used to buy those large lanterns that look like a headlight on a car. They are lots of fun. Like holding a laser beam. And they didn't last more than 6 months on average. Wising up, I tried a Litpath Orange lantern. Cute. Puts out a fair beam, and has a general illumination mode. Kids love the red flashing mode. On the lowest setting, it will illuminate for a day or more.Eventually I realized that my lantern never broke. I bought more. They didn't break either. Now I buy them in multiples and give them away to friends.

Not working! Will light up for an hour and then turn off even if ut is full charge!UPDATE: After my initial review, the seller reached out to me and apologized for the defective item.They provided excellent customer service and quickly issued me a refund. I really appreciate their effort to make things right. Thank you for the great service!Highly recommend this seller , they care for their customer's satisfaction on their products!

The media could not be loaded. This light would be perfect for all my camping needs except for the high pitch ringing when you switch the light from bright to dim. As you can hear in the video, when I turn it on in bright it works great, then I switch to the dim light and a high pitch ringing occurs and never stops. Being in the middle of nowhere is all about enjoying the silence, but if I want to use this light in dim mode, I have to listen to that high pitch ringing that makes me feel like my head is going to explode! So I will only ever be able to use this light in bright mode or in emergency red. And the same thing happens in flashlight mode. When it's bright, no sound. When I switch to dim, the ringing starts.I reached out to Lit-Path and their Customer Service team was awesome! Except the new light they sent me still has the ringing. I tried it out of the box and with low power the ringing wasn't as bad, but at full charge the ringing was louder in dim mode for the lantern and flashlight setting.At a far distance it is a lot less noticeable and probably only affects people with sensitive hearing. I don't own the larger model so I don't know if that one does it too. After reading about LED lights and the ringing, there does seem to be an issue with LED lights when they dim they change frequency rotation and can produce this type of ringing.Not much more I or Lit-Path can do when it is an LED issue. Thanks for all the help!

Great small light source in case of emergency
