Coleman 400L LED Camping Lantern, Water-Resistant, Red

Summary: I'm a big fan of this lantern and very glad I made this purchase. 5 stars for the quality of its light (warm/white), its ruggedness and its stated ability to last 70 hours on one set of batteries. Details: I was in the market for emergency light sources so a few weeks back I ordered 3 different types of camping / emergency lanterns. When I saw this Coleman at the price of $17.79 I thought it could be an amazing bargain. My experience with the Coleman brand name has been very good over the years. However, I was a bit put off by the description of it as being rated at 400 lumens as other lanterns were rating themselves much higher. But based on the Coleman brandname, the fact that this was powered by 4 D batteries and rated to last up to 70 hours on the low setting, I decided to purchase it. I am glad I did. First things first. The batteries (not included) were easy to put in but you do have to pay attention to the orientation of the batteries as indicated under the unit. After the batteries were put in, it worked uneventfully at both the low and high settings. It puts out a nice warm/white light that I find very non-harsh and comforting. It is a little less bright than another lantern I ordered at the same time but not subjectively meaningfully so. I like the quality of the light a lot. If this quality of light can actually last 70 hours as stated (and I have no reason to doubt it at this point), I will be very impressed. This light seems well built and rugged. Of all the lights I have purchased, for sure, this is the one that I would take out in a driving rain or snowstorm. I feel in an outage situation, I might first start with one of the other lanterns I bought, but I would use them to find where I stored this one and then use this one as my go-to lighting for the remainder of the outage feeling comfortable the 4 D batteries would drive the light source for a long duration. So pros: works as expected, fairly easy to put in the batteries but pay attention to orientation, appears rugged and well-built and gives off a very nice color and non-harsh light. Cons: A little less bright than other lights I just bought. Also 4 D batteries makes this heavy in comparison to other lanterns so may not be the best choice to take with you on a short camping trip if you are carrying your light source in a backpack. So 5 stars from me for this product. I recommend anyone reading this click on my profile to read my review of the 2 other types of lanterns I purchased at the same time. They each have their advantages and disadvantages when being compared to one another. I am nonetheless very happy with this Coleman lamp and would not hesitate to purchase it again. At $17.79 I consider it quite the bargain.

Worked real well

This is great for power outages! It’s bright enough to light up a room all by itself and it’s light weight and can be hung if needed.

The perfect gift for Christmas I love them. The first 2 were for by house. Now I’m buying 3 more for my College Grandkids. When the power goes out they’ll have lights. Thank you Amazon!

Light is super bright and white. There were times I'd have preferred that the lower setting be slightly dimmer. Due to it being on the heavier side, it's not ideal for extended walks or hikes, but isn't bad for hooking on the handle of a bike. The weightiness also keeps it from going lopsided when you use the hook. Since it's on the taller and wider size, you don't have to worry as much in regards to objects blocking the bulb if you're placing it on a full picnic table. My neighbors would regularly ask to borrow it when they were hosting outdoor parties since it greatly reduced the number of lanterns needed.

Very bright and sturdy for a smallish lantern. When we lose power, I put it in the kitchen/living room pass through and it lights up those rooms well, as well as the doors to the other rooms.

I appreciate it thank you

The only problem with this light is that it's too darned bright! Of course, I'm just kidding - - that's what we want. It lights up the entire campsite. In fact, we've had to put paper around it to tone it down a little bit. A lower setting might be nice. I like the design. It feels sturdy. I like the Coleman brand, always have. I have the very old model that had two fluorescent tubes and couldn't find replacement tubes. Time to join the modern world. I'm thinking I'll buy the rechargeable battery module, as D batteries are expensive. Nice to be able to keep some spares around when camping, though.

Idéal pour le camping ou le patio

Excelente produto recomendo .

perfect, Coleman product, best of the best, thank you

Es muy buen producto para tenerlo en casa, oficina, buena calidad y ligero

よく見てなかったので仕方ないですがCPX6ではなかったため、互換性のある充電キットが使えませんでした。電池のみです。 お気をつけください。商品としてはフックも簡単に外れるため大変便利で良い商品です。
