Number of LED: 60 LED Life span of LED:10,000 hours Package include: 1 X LED Camping Light 1 X 3AAA battery holder 1 X Camping light hook(use for hanging the lamp) Note: Battery not inlcuded Famous Words of Inspiration…”Sometimes when you innovate, you make mistakes. It is best to admit them quickly, and get on
Great hanging lamp for any camping trip! This light has 3 modes (low 5 leds)(med 17 leds)(high 60 leds). This lantern supports 18650 batteries or 3 AAA batteries that fit in included holder. Lamp uses little current 90mA to 310mA (see photos for more details) but depending on battery should give you plenty of run time.Rough estimate of battery life(Capacity of battery / draw in mA ) x (0.7)= runtime(5000mah)/(310mA) x (0.7) = 11.3hrs (hi)(5000mah)/(215mA) x (0.7) = 16.3hrs (med)(5000mah)/(85mA) x (0.7) = 41.8 (low)
NOT waterproof! I ordered 3 of these lamps. They worked great the first night. Then it rained. The packaging says “Water proof design” and they’re meant for outdoor use, but one had water in it that next day, and worked only sporadically. By the following day, they were either not working, or working occasionally.I was really impressed that first night – bright light, used regular batteries, easy to hang and to turn on & off. But they are definitely NOT water proof.I did take them indoors, opened them and took out the batteries to dry out – it did not help.
It’s OK, not as bright as in the photos, better with 18650 than AAA’s I ordered one of these to hang in our tent on camping trips. It was listed as Amazon Prime, so I was a bit surprised when it didn’t arrive after several days. The vendor reached out to us apologetically saying they had moved their offices and that the light was on its way, but it had been mailed from China, and it ended up taking several weeks to show up.
