Operating Instructions

White Lantern

On/Off: Press and hold the switch for 0.5 seconds to turn the lantern on or off.

Output Selection: Single click the switch to cycle through Low→Med→High→Turbo (Low is factory defaulted).

Red Lantern

On/Off: With the lantern turned on, double click to enter red lantern. Double click again to return to white lantern. Press and hold for 0.5 seconds to turn off the lantern.

Output Selection: Single click the switch to cycle through Constant on→Red Flash (Constant on is factory defaulted).

Intelligent Brightness Downshifting

The camping lantern will accumulate a lot of heat when used for extended periods. After 30 minutes working on Turbo, the light will automatically step down from 300 lumens to 120 lumens to reduce temperature. After an hour working on High, the light will automatically step down from 130 lumens to 52 lumens to reduce temperature.

Charging

Remove the anti-dust cover to reveal the charging port of the camping lantern and plug the Micro USB terminal of the charging cable into it. If the battery level is fairly sufficient, the charging indicator displays green to indicate unnecessary charging. Otherwise the charging indicator will display red while charging, and will turn solid green when fully charged. Normal charging time for the built-in 1600mAh battery is approximately 1 hour and 40 minutes from depleted to fully charged with the light off. Once charging is completed, be sure to remove the charging cable and replace the anti-dust cover to maintain the waterproof ability.

*The lantern can only be used on Low and Med output while charging, but the charging time will be prolonged.

Battery Level Indication

With the lantern turned off, single click the switch — the battery level indicator on the side switch will display the battery status for 3 seconds.

  • Green light constant-on: saturated, more than 85%.
  • Green light flashes: sufficient, 85%-51%.
  • Red and green light alternately: poor, 50%-21%.
  • Red light flashes: critical, 20%-0%.

(These are approximate figures.)

Reviews

LOVE IT!

"I absolutely love this for camping. The magnet works perfectly in my tent on my cot and table frame. I also attach it to my camp chair. The light lasts a long time before needing recharged. I have bought this as a gift for people I camp with."

Ruth F. (5/5)

I’m happy .

"Good product , small size and lightweight ,."

Thomas F. (5/5)

Useful little light!

"I like it so much I had to buy another as a gift! The one button is a little fussy, but the light is warm and bright, the hook and magnet offer different ways to hang/mount. I intended it for camping but just used it for under-sink plumbing and attic work. The shape makes it stable enough to stay in place and upright."

Valerie M. (5/5)

Perfect tent dome light.

"This makes a great tent dome light with the help of #2 Nite Ize S-Biner. Provides a nice diffused light which is easy on the eyes. I picked up several of these for myself and gifts to friends who like to camp. Everyone so far loves it."

Michael M. (5/5)

Tiny torch

"Nice little source camping light. Just hang it on a branch and take care of whatever business. It's good to illuminate one person's needs but if you have a large camping site you may need more. Although its Max brightness would be for a fairly large area. Max brightness Range pretty wide. Recharge takes a while but it lasts long."

Malcolm B. (5/5)

Small but powerful!

"What an awesome lantern! It's tiny, light, and has excellent runtimes. Mode spacing is great with a nice moonlight mode. Charges fast too. I took it on a trip into the Sawtooth mountains with temps in the low 20s F. It performed flawlessly. I already had a cl25r and I think this is a nicer light in almost every way. Somehow it has better runtimes than the bigger brother. The dome design spreads the light around nicely. The color temp is great too. I hate cool blue lights, this is a nice slightly warm tint that makes colors appear accurately. Bottom line, if you want a lantern, get it. I might get a second just because it's nice around the house too."

Arthur S. (5/5)
