Don't expect to get anywhere close to the 'advertised' light duration times...either via the AC charger or by cranking. Besides having a short duration of light output, the diffuser dimishes the LED considerably, and it will barely illuminte a 5 foot radius. I gave this lanterns 'several tries' to see if the battery needed a couple of cycles to enable it to store and generate power, but it gave me worse output with each attempt.

This is not a very bright lantern, but the thing just doesn't die.I took it on a four day camping trip and used it in my tent every night for a few hours, and never had to crank it.
Then when I got home I decided to test just how much life it had left, so I let it run on maximum for two days straight. It got dimmer but refused to go out, so I gave up and put it away.
If you need a super bright outdoor lamp then buy something else.
Otherwise you cant go wrong with this one.
I might never even get to use the crank charger.

The thing I like the most is the 12v cig. adapter. I can hook it up to a large storage Deep Cell battery and it would give me emer. lighting for way over a week as it is very efficient. It also has the crank power for additional power. One can easily upgrade the 3 AAA Nicad cells in the bottom. One screw and one can easily replace them. There is also an AC adapter.Honest reviews on Dorcy 41-4268 Dynamo Rechargeable LED Flashlight Lantern with AC
As residents of northwestern NJ, we thought we were prepared for Hurricane Sandy with a generator, but when the gas rationing started, we had to severely limit our generator time, leaving us with long hours with only candles for light. With three teenage boys, a big dog, and a cat, that made me *very* nervous, so I ordered four of these from Amazon with Prime overnight delivery. Had them the next day even during the immediate aftermath of the storm! And they are amazing. A great handcrank to charge the bright LEDs OR you can plug it into a power source. We charged them with the generator and then had great (and safe!) light during the rest of the evening. It comes with several types of adapters and other bonuses. Now there's another storm on the way and I'm very glad we have these great lanterns ready to go!Find helpful customer reviews and review ratings for Dorcy 41-4268 Dynamo Rechargeable LED Flashlight Lantern with AC
