I and my three sons just spent that last three nights camping in the dark thanks to this lantern. It's brand new and suddenly stopped taking a charge. Now, if I can just find the receipt!
Sorry to hear that. I haven’t been hearing a lot of good things about this lamp. I haven’t had any problems with mine so far but I’m sure the issues will show up soon. Appreciate the feedback on how yours is. Be safe out there brother.
I have this lamp. It works well. One modification I made is to wrap one side with thick aluminum foil and cover that with duct tape. It creates a reflector and allows one to direct all the light one way so you can hold the light up without blinding yourself. The only other mods I would consider would be a few transparency sheets of various shades (red, clear, and blue) cut custom to be taped to the front to provide different light effects to do things like conserve night vision or create mood lighting. Clear to protect the bulb. I cant speak to the power source utility but the speaker is suitable for small spaces. Thanks for the video.
Thanks for that. That’s some good thinking and planning. My light was ok for a while but now it’s starting to have some issues. Heard of a few people having problems with theirs. It will serve in an emergency though. Thanks for the input and ideas.
Good evening! That is awesome!!! I want one! Perfect for camping! Light, music, and power bank!?!? Really damn cool! Thank you for sharing, I will be picking one up! Take care my friend!!!
Good evening. Yeah for the price these are a bad ass. It’s going to get a good workout this summer. I’m hoping I can get one more before they sell out. Be safe brother.
Do you know how long the battery last on high vs low? They usually say on the box but this one doesn't 🤔 That's what kept me from buying it when I saw it. There's a similar latern that's also 1000 lumens with a Bluetooth speaker at Walmart but I like this design better. I just wanted to compare the battery between the 2 but this one doesn't have any info on the box.
Unfortunately they don’t give a lot of info on this. On high the battery will last roughly 3 hours. On low you’ll get possibly 4 hours of use. Using the speaker and light together significantly lowers the run time. From my experience I wouldn’t expect more than 3.5 hours of light from this. I’m still testing it but it does appear to drain rather quickly. Sorry I couldn’t be more help.
@@simplepreparedness oh the one I found similar to this one runs 4 hrs on high mode and it says 29 hrs on low mode. I'll probably be getting that one. Thanks for the info anyway 👍
Does your lantern have a bit of resistance when turning the dimmer? Mine is smooth until about 3/4 the way to 1200 lumens. Need to know if mine has a factory error.
The dimmer turns the light on. I’ve been hearing a lot of bad things about this. Mine seems to be gradually loosing battery life. I’d definitely return the one you have.
I have not gotten the opportunity to use it yet but according to the book it will run 3 hours or more depending on the light setting and weather or not you are using the Bluetooth speaker.
Just bought one, came googling for “light “ instructions” to see what the blue lights blinking mean, to ask know when it’s charged, how much charge it keeps? .... abs I’m testing 123 now 😏🙃 thanks for the video.
I’m glad you got one. I’m really liking this and wish we would have gotten a few more for emergencies or just hanging out in the yard. Good for camping too. Hope you enjoy it.

Mine wont take a charge anymore any suggestions on why?
Any ever find out if you link two speakers together
I wonder if you can connect to two speaker at one time...
If there’s still some in stock tomorrow we’ll find out.
Bought one last night on clearance $24.00 at Wally World (Walmart).Only one the had.Love it.Hoping to find more,but doubt it at that price.
Very much incredible video.
I Love your vídeo about torchlight.
Candle Very beauty and interest.
Lord keep bless you.
gracias. parece una buena pieza de equipo. lo usará mucho en los próximos meses. mantente a salvo y te bendiga.
Bought one for $10 on clearance at Walmart last week. Unfortunately, I didn't get back in time to get the other 3!
Mine seems to be holding up pretty well. Some people have had issues with them but mine has been issue free.

Thats a kool speaker/light combo with a battery bank for $35,
Yeah it is. Been messing with it and I’m really liking it. Will probably grab another and put this thing through the paces.
Have to say that is pretty damn nice next time I’m at Walmart gonna check them out stay safe
Yeah it’s pretty cool. Might grab a second one when I go back. Be safe brother.

Sorry for not getting back to you sooner. Yes mine also has some resistance in the dimmer. Hope that helps out.
@@simplepreparedness no worries! Your answer is much appreciated; knowing yours has it too makes me feel better 😄
Does this lantern have micro USB or usb type c port?! Also, does the battery indicator turns on when you turn on the Bluetooth speaker?
It has a universal USB port and the battery indicator light comes on when the lantern is on not the Bluetooth speaker.
USB Type C.
Well isn’t that the coolest thing ever!
It’s pretty cool. They are apparently selling pretty fast. I’m hoping they still have them tomorrow, I’ll grab another one for just in case.
@@simplepreparedness I just ordered one from your link, thanks again for the review!
That’s great man. I’ve been messing with this one, really liking it.
Man I gotta one
Seems pretty cool. Look forward to putting it to use.
So out of the box, the Bluetooth turns on, but not the light. Does the dimmer actually turn on the light or is mine defective?
The dimmer turns the light on. I’ve been hearing a lot of bad things about this. Mine seems to be gradually loosing battery life. I’d definitely return the one you have.
@@simplepreparedness thanks
Does anyone know how long they last fully charged?
According to the instructions, run time is 3 hours or more depending on brightness and if you are using the Bluetooth speaker.
@@simplepreparedness thanks..I purchased one..lol
Have you used it? How long does the battery last 🤔
I have not gotten the opportunity to use it yet but according to the book it will run 3 hours or more depending on the light setting and weather or not you are using the Bluetooth speaker.

Can I replace the Led light.?
I honestly have no idea. Haven’t tried.
Mine flickers and I just bought it.
I’ve been hearing about a lot of people having issues with them.
What is the charge time?
I honestly would not recommend this. The battery life really isn’t that great.
When the power goes out i will use candles. I dont need a speaker. That’s dumb. Dont waste your dough. Candles are the best idea
I agree. This thing is not a good idea for the power going out. It was just something my wife picked up and it’s nice to have when you’re out camping.
I got mine on clearance for 20$ might as well pick one up. All my other Swiss tech purchases have been solid so far
Mines not charging anymore
Mine still charges but it doesn’t last as long as it used to.
Battery life simply shitty 💯💯
Noticing that myself. Every time I use it it lasts a little less longer.
