Meet the ultimate wilderness companion, the Radiant RL3 PowerSwitch Rechargeable Lantern. This lantern is equipped with six modes to suit any setting: 4 classic white modes that cover the full spectrum of brightness from 5 to 500 lumens, and 2 ambient amber modes including flicker to mimic a flame. RL3 is there when an outlet is hard to come by, recharging phones and devices in a pinch with its built-in USB output. When the Lithium Ion battery runs low, PowerSwitch saves the day. With 3-AA alkaline batteries (not included) inserted in its reserve battery compartment, the lantern will automatically switch power over to extend runtime, lasting up to 16 days on moonlight mode. Need the light even longer? Pack an extra set of batteries to keep shining. Built for all conditions, this lantern is weatherproof (IPX4), impact-resistant, and includes a built-in carabiner clip and lens-protecting storage bag that doubles as a light diffuser. RL3 recharges with its included USB-C cable in 6 hours and features lockout mode to prevent accidental activation.

Jacob G. ★★★★★

Took this camping last weekend and the rechargeable battery easily lasted three nights of card games in the tent. The white modes dim down low enough that it didn't blind everyone, and the switch between settings is quick.

Steven ★★★★★

I was skeptical about needing six modes, but the 4 white settings alone have covered everything from reading in my tent to lighting up the whole campsite for dinner. Battery seems to last a good while on the lower settings, which is exactly what I wanted for weekend trips.

David ★★★★★

Six modes might sound gimmicky but I actually use all of them, from a dim glow for reading in the tent to the full white blast that lit up our whole campsite for dinner. Battery's still going strong after three nights, which is more than I can say for my old lantern.
