Stanley Troy Thompson

Stan the Man Reviews: The Best of All Hurrican Lanterns.

Reviewed in the United States on July 24, 2015

Color: MulticolorSize: StandardVerified Purchase

I did not buy this lantern on Amazon but I have three of them which I picked up, at various times, at Lowe's when they were on sale for about a dollar more than the Amazon price.

As far as I am concerned, this is THE lantern for hurricane country down here on the Gulf coast. I guess they sell well too because all the hardware stores seem to have a constant supply of them.

They run on four D size batteries which are very secure. To access the battery compartment, you use a dime or small screwdriver to turn unlock type fixed in screws to the unlock position.

Behind the main twin LED columns, which are exceptionally bright, there is a metal mirror which does a dandy job of projecting the light from the lantern forward if you are outside and night walking with it. You can also swing the light "tubes" upward and light will then come out of both sides of the tubes.

This light is identical to a fluorescent type lantern that was sold before LEDs. I had the fluorescent lantern my dad had given me as a Christmas present and, for some reason, had never opened it but when the LED lantern came out, I gave the fluorescent one to a neighbor and we compared the output. The LEDs seemed as bright or even slightly brighter and will, of course, burn longer on the 4 D batteries.

The little amber night light burns for over a week, I think, and it is dandy in motels as a nightlight to find your way to the bathroom. I keep one by the bed at home and switch the night light on when I have to go to the bathroom at night. I provides sufficient light when your eyes are night adjusted.

The only down side, if you want to call it that, is that the Hi power and the Low power seem almost the same but, if the low power does make the battery pack last longer I guess that that is a good thing. Both high and low compare favorably to a Coleman butan lantern for camping and to a bright Coleman LED camping lantern I use. I imagine that butane lanterns are almost a thing of the past since the mantles are so fragile and the gas a bit dangerous.

If you do live in storm country, you do NOT want to burn candles or oil lampts. In a Cat three hurricane like Ivan, your house would burn like an inferno if you had a fire. LED lights of every kind should have replaced anything with fire by now. I hear that they have revolutionized the third worl sine the battery life is good.

I would recommend this lanter for anything you need a lantern or a six volt light for. The only thing it would not be good for was throwing out a high powered beam to search with though it will more than suffice for midnight navigations. The light has less glare than a Coleman camping LED though I like my Coleman too.

3 hrs run on 4 AA rechargeables in D adapters on full output,30 hrs total runtime,not blinding then folded, orange led nighlight

Reviewed in the United States on September 14, 2014

Color: MulticolorSize: StandardVerified Purchase

Solid, comfortable to handle and carry, non water-resistant (would be perfect, if it was water resistant, as this lantern, then folded, provides much more useable forward illumination, that is shining and illumiaating mostly forward and is not blinding to your eyes, as comparing to regular Energizer 360 water-resistant Aa/D size lantern or Coleman CPX 6 Easy Hanging LED 200 lumen 4-D-size lantern) lantern, accepts four D size batteries. Sufficiently bright, not as bright as my old Coleman CPX 6 Easy Hanging LED 200 lumen lanter, but is lighter, more comfortable to carry, shines forward if folded and does not blind you, and will suffice in most conditions of NYC apartments. Energizers' lanters are the only lanters utilizing an ingenious one small led night light ( you have 8 white led and 1 orange night light led inside, and can cycle full brighness/low/nightlight). That nightlight led makes sure in complete darkness you are always aware of the environment, location of the lantern, and is great for kids to not get them scared in complete blackout – very useful feature, often overlooked by reviewers. If you have small children, most of them are afraid of the darkness, this is the one to get to use with them, or another Energizer lantern with the same orange led nightlight feature, there are several of them, like Energizer 360 lantern, all are very good. Very affordable, excellent value. Highly recommend. I had bought 3 of them, and 2 solar models of this same lantern.

Update on non-power regulated voltage :
I had found out from NLee the Engineer review this lantern is not power regulated voltage, meaning the lantern will use the batteries faster and inefficient, but I guess for the price of this lantern is not to be expected. I will try the lantern longevity with Eneloops Pro or Amazon Basics High-Capacity inside D-size adapters (2 AA inside one D-adapter), once batteries will go through break in mode on Skyrc NC2500 charger. I live in NYC in Zone A, so I am stacking up just in case.

Update for AA rechargeable batteries use:
Runtime when using AA rechargeable batteries, Amazon Basics High-Capacity, confirmed discharge capacity 2450+ MAh, with a D adapter (1 rechargeable per adapter loaded for testing purposes, so 4 AA rechargeables total) on high is 3 hours full-light-output, after initial 3 "bright" hours it is dimmer and dimmer, useful to somewhat 2 feet-away-illumination around it for another 12 hours, and is on for next 15 hours, useful only as a night light.
Will update with 8 batteries (2 per adapter) and for low light output longevity later.

Great lantern, I highly recommend it

Reviewed in the United States on November 17, 2020

Color: MulticolorSize: StandardVerified Purchase

This energizer weather ready lantern is amazing. I am so glad I came across this lantern for so many great reasons. I really like how bright it gets and how it brightens up an entire room. It only takes 4 D batteries for it to work. It is best to use energizer max D alkaline batteries. The lantern allows you to use three different light settings one is a moon which is not bright, one is sun and gives more light off and one is extra bright. The lantern is also a water resistant lantern. which is amazing that you can use it in any weather rain or shine. The lantern stands up really well on its own it didn’t fall over and was well balanced in every position we put it in. The lantern also lights up on both sides so it can illuminate the room from front and back. I record it for free but I am buying a second one because it is that good. We have had bad storms, tornadoes ally the past couple years where I live. We had a lost Electric had needed light so bad besides having to use candles all the time. So this is a great item to have for us and I would like to have more than one so that we each have one in the home in case were in different rooms when the lights go out or one can be kept in the bathroom one in the living room. I highly recommend this lantern it’s amazing.

Muy buena pero no es para uso rudo

Reviewed in Mexico on May 30, 2021

Color: MulticolorSize: StandardVerified Purchase

Ilumina bastante en su modo alto 1000 lm en su modo nocturno es también útil la luz ámbar que ofrece, es una pequeña luz útil en la oscuridad. El que tenga posibilidades de cargar un dispositivo usando la carga de la linterna lo hace especialmente útil le añade un plus, explico por qué, las pilas D que utiliza ofrecen gran capacidad de carga. Los materiales se sienten resistentes sin llegar al uso rudo, debe tratarse con cuidado para mantenerla sin rayones o fracturas que si se te cae posiblemente se rompe porque pesa bastante con las pilas D. Un pequeño golpe sin problemas lo resiste. Entre los inconvenientes que halle los reduzco a la tapa de las pilas, hay que hacer bastante presión para recolocarla.
