Great little lantern.
Lantern is very bright and will more than suffice for power outages as long as you don't run it on high. It has four settings that it will cycle through. Brightest(1) lasts 1.5 hours. Setting 2 lasts 3.5 hours, setting 3 (low mode) will last 8 hours and setting 4 (night light) will last 72 hours. This is according to the labeling on the box. The night light is still very bright and would likely be the setting I would use. It generates enough to cover your living room with an ample amount of light. Setting 4 is much more dim than a 100 watt bulb but more than bright enough to carry you through a power outage. I have several lanterns - this is the latest one. The thing to remember about any battery powered lantern is to check the batteries frequently(every 6 months or sooner) because batteries will leak as they start to age and the acid will corrode the battery contacts. This lantern is a gem, compact enough to store on a closet shelf, and more than bright enough to light the room - if I were you I'd buy it. Read more
