I got the first one of these lanterns on sale. It came without directions of any sort but some exploration filled in the missing pieces. It has an internal battery pack which is charged via the solar panel on top of the lantern. It also has three AA alkaline cells which it uses for backup which I have since replaced with rechargeables. It comes with a car and wall charger for the battery pack although I don't plan to use them much. The internal battery pack will charge off just about any light source including room lights. It appears to be rugged, but just to be safe I built a carry box out of a large handy-wipe container and some closed cell foam padding. The lantern is a lightweight, easy to use, safe alternative to a Coleman-style lantern. The light output is less, but ease-of-use makes it a good choice for summer camping. There is only one light setting, but most lanterns are used on high all the time anyway. If the batteries are fully charged, it will last at least ten hours.

This Lantern very quickly became one of the very best lighting devices I own. Its range isnt as great as a flash light and the area it covers is smaller than a lamp but its brighter then both my flash light and lamp and the best part is its solar powered. It charges easily from the sun in my window. Then when I get home I use it to read under at night and its power from a day of charging last all night. It really helps me be green and use less electricity. I plan to take it camping too, its sturdy design should do well outside as well.

Iv'e been absolutely delighted with this little lantern. It charges in not too long in indirect sun and puts out great light for hours! In fact, I have yet to need to switch our out using the solar recharged battery to the backup regular batteries inside yet! Its gone camping with us and was perfect for lighting to play cards in a tent for hours and made great and ready light during a recent power outage. Highly recommend this nifty little lantern.

this is a neat little lantern. Very handy. It even charges sitting beside my chair under the regular lights. Don't expect it to put out the amount of light a large propane lantern will put out but it's great for what I need which is a camping light inside my truck camper shell.

Great lantern that's bright and lightweight. It was actually a little smaller than I expected based on the photo (although true to the dimensions listed in the description), but that's actually not a bad thing especially when packing it for a camping trip. I haven't tested out its water resistance or whether or not it floats, but once I do if it's anything less than expected I'll update my review with a new comment. I love the fact that it (re)charges with ambient light too and doesn't actually need to be directly in the sun, and of course you always have the backup battery option to power the lantern. The red "charging" light will only be on if there's enough light to charge it, so you'll know if you need to move it to a brighter area of the room.
