Whether balcony, terrace or camping:
This small battery lamp is the ideal solution for a leisurely stay outdoors.
Unlike a candle, which you have to protect against wind and over again, one need in this light source in this respect no worry.
Application
The storage in the state collapsed with compact dimensions luminaire can, as long as you store the necessary transport in your pocket.
Through a short rotational movement of the two housing halves (solid plastic) fold this on the basis of a strong spiral spring, which is completely covered with a clean processed and translucent white fabric apart.
The light in this way incurred lantern shape, you can now either on a table off (safe state by the weight of the batteries in the housing base) or using a collapsible strap on the housing cover to hang eg.
The light emitted by the tensioned fabric light is warm white. The LED with the specified 30 lumens is bright enough to enjoy the evening in a relaxed atmosphere with a glass of wine nibbles at a table outdoors can.
Functions / Features:
In addition to the "Lantern function" it can be used to a limited extent through a lens in the lid as a flashlight.
The luminosity of this function is not to be compared with a conventional flashlight, but perfectly adequate for example in a tent to search for objects or illuminate a dark walkway on campsites directly in front of him.
By pressing the on / off the luminosity of the LED (increased energy consumption here of course) or the LED can be vesetzt in a flashing mode visibly increased.
The power is supplied via three standard AA batteries (Mignon), which are not included, however, in almost every discounters are cheap to buy (even on vacation when traveling abroad).
I can not comment because I have been able to use only briefly this and also the appeals brought by my batteries not want to consume useless about the burn time using a battery pack. Lt. Instructions should be up to 50 hours depending on the quality of these batteries; lt. Description Amazon under the working time is about 6 hours.
Conclusion:
The planned use as camping / or table lamp outdoors I am completely satisfied with this light.
The purchase price of 12.99 euros at present I find quite appropriate.
An integrated charging function with use of batteries would be the so-called "icing on the cake", but since you could save yourself some batteries for environmental reasons on longer camping holidays.
The only real gripe (for me personally, however, not relevant) would be:
The lt. Manual (also in relatively comprehensible German) waterproof construction is definitely not given. There is likely to be most likely to inadvertently erroneous information.
However, this should deter a clear buy recommendation me no way, because the use of such a lamp is not provided in rainy weather.
