LIGHT MY DARKEST HOUR
Living in northern California one thing is a guarantee, the power company (he who shall not be named) at some point is going to cut your power. You don't know when it's going to happen exactly, but you do know it's coming. This is why I started looking for something to illuminate those nights when I'm stuck in the dark. That's when I came across this lantern, and I have to say I'm quite impressed. Honestly I just wanted something that would light up brightly enough, and that was it. What I got was something that exceeded my expectations, this thing is a thoughtfully designed product that is a true testament to foresight. Man this thing has so many useful mounting/holding/hanging options. Firstly it has handles that swivel up into a position that you can hold. Secondly it has magnets on the bottom so you can stick it to a metal surface and use it that way. Lastly you use the hood it has to hang it and light up an area. Awesome right well it also has several settings to help you out with your lighting needs I would have been happy with just the lantern settings, but man you also get a beam, flashing red light and a slower blinking mode with I googled and is actually S.O.S in morse code (no joke). Also the flashlight button is "smart" if you keep it in a mode for long enough another button press makes it turn off. If you click the button quickly it actually goes to the next mode, really convenient. All lights are bright and do a good job of illuminating the area I included a pic of it operating in the day so you can see how this guy handles it's business. One last thing I would like to say this thing is fun to use when you do engage the lantern feature, you pull it by the handles to open it up and reveal the lit lantern, do you know what that feels like for somebody who grew up in the 80's? It feels like you're Optimus freeken prime opening up the matrix of leadership. Hold this thing sideward and try it out for yourself you'll see what I mean. I'm not kidding, I do it for fun every once in a while it's just great!!! Did I mention that you get two of these bad boys how great is that? Use one for the house, and keep one in the trunk of your car. I love this little guy. Read more
