I assume the multi color modes are low light settings as well, and therefore the multi color modes last an advertised 36 hours on a single charge like the low light white setting is marketed to last?
I would say that's a fair assessment. The multicolor mode doesn't offer any adjustment of brightness like the white light setting has. I haven't had any issues with running out of power on extended trips. I normally will hang them off my pack if need be for solar charging and or just lay them in the sun all day once I make camp.
@@CaliWilderness Obviously assuming adequate sun light exposure all day of hiking/camping, do you find that a solar-only charge during a single day's daylight hours is enough juice for what you need during the evening? 20 hours for a full charge is probably 3 days of good sunlight. But if 6-8 hours of good sunlight per day gets you though one full evening, then I wouldn't really care about waiting for full charge.
@@ACTSVERSE I've taken both of these on a 4night trip, they were charged completely when I left. It was sunny the majority of the time and I laid them out each time I set up camp and never had an issue with them running out of juice. Granted I also carry a small goal zero Lantern and a fenix headlamp as well. So these are generally used for ambient lighting in camp. Additionally, once the sun goes down I really am only up for maybe an hour or two after that. Then I'm in the sleeping bag and getting some z's. So the usage time is fairly short each evening. However, I would not rely solely on these lights when backpacking. Always have a headlamp and maybe even a small electric Lantern.
So glad this video showed how to cycle through the colors - I was looking everywhere for that info. Thanks
Thank u I looked on the web sight and it didn't show how to get it on a solid color . Thank u again I was getting mad lmbo. Like this lil light now .
