LiteXpress LXL907078B Camp 71 Lantern Lights with 1000 Lumen Light Output

Everyone keeps talking about how bight it is, and this is a great point, but the primary reason to buy this lantern is the warm color temp.This is one of the only LED lantern options on the market with warm light, utilizing the famed NICHIA brand LEDs. In the warm light mode the brightness feels equivalent to a 40w incandescent bulb. Cool light mode seems to be almost as bright as a 60w incandescent.Why care about warm light color temp? Two good reasons:1) Blue light exposure at night negatively affects sleep quality.2) Matching your light source temperatures makes for a better camping experience. Campfire may be ~2000k color temp. This light gets much closer to that temperature than anything else on the market.Very pleased with this product so far. Will be taking it on a 1 week trip shortly.

Checks all boxes. Materials and build quality are really good. Easy to operate. Very bright light. Batteries last long.

This is the very best lantern I have ever had. I absolutely love lanterns and this one can't be beat. There are so many options as far as the lighting including the candle light mode. I use that mode almost nightly in my house just for the ambience. It runs for hundreds of hours on that mode so why not use it. I bought one of these and after I received it and found it to be to my liking, I ordered another one. No buyers remorse here. Just a great lantern.

Made in China of lightweight plastic components. It may be designed or managed in Germany but it is NOT German quality. However, it is bright.

Lanterns still have a way to go before they replace the super bright propane and white-gas burning lanterns. Granted, progress is quick and I think in a few years something will come out that will be competitive. I'm referring to the Coleman Nova and Coleman Pinnacle lanterns. I thought this LiteXpress and Even the Fenix 3-18650 battery lantern would match their lighting, but they don't. Comes close, but I'm still wanting a 2000 lumen LED lantern that runs on batteries, D or 18650 cell.Only a few things keep me from giving it a 5-star rating -> there's no hook on the bottom to hang it upside down, and the on/off button seems more of a software on/off than a solid click. This, to me, = parasitic loss, which means I keep the batteries outside of the lantern when this is in storage, making it more of a good emergency lantern than something to be used everyday. Not to mention I'd rather use 18650 batteries as those are rechargeable, and don't need as many of them to provide lots of power. D-Cells aren't cheap, they're heavy, and worst off, they're disposable. Even the rechargeable kind need extra large chargers to match their big size.Kudos on the brightness and durable plastic, but a star off on the little things (like battery source, power button, and no bottom hook)

Will buy another.

I bought this lantern because of the great reviews I read here on Amazon. I really love the "candle" mode. I was able to use this excellent lantern recently while camping out in Idaho Falls for the Great American Eclipse. I hung it from the upper center loop in my REI Camp Dome 4 tent and enjoyed the excellent illumination this lantern offered. I would only change the battery compartment configuration to allow for rechargeable batteries such as 26650 or similar type of rechargeables.

I bought this for the very rare occasion the power goes out... basically a few hours every year or two. It really brightens the room. However if you don't use it for years, keep the batteries separate or they will corrode.
