Camping Lighting / Awning Lights / Lanterns/ Torches

We have a wide range of lighting options for your camping trip, from lanterns to torches. Our camping lighting options come from all the big outdoor bands such as Outwell, Zempire, Outdoor Revolution and Easy Camp.

How many lumens do i need for a camping lantern?

The number of lumens you need for a camping lantern will depend on the intended use of the lantern. A general rule of thumb is to have at least 50-100 lumens for basic camping needs, such as navigating around the campsite or cooking. If you need more light for activities such as reading or playing games, you may want to look for a lantern with 200-300 lumens or more. It's also important to consider the size and weight of the lantern, as well as the battery life and type of light source used.

How to charge rechargeable camping lantern?

There are several ways to charge a rechargeable camping lantern, depending on the type of lantern and the charging options it provides. Some common methods include:

1. USB charging: Many camping lanterns can be charged via a USB cable, which can be plugged into a computer, power bank, or other USB charging device.

2. Solar charging: Some lanterns have built-in solar panels, which can be charged during the day and used at night.

3. Hand crank charging: Some lanterns have a hand-crank or a built-in dynamo which can generate power to charge the batteries.

4. AC adapter: Some lanterns come with an AC adapter, which can be plugged into an electrical outlet to charge the lantern.

5. Car charging: Some lanterns have a 12V DC charging cord which allows you to charge the lantern in your car.

It is important to read the instruction manual for your specific lantern to know what is the best way to charge it. Also, be mindful of the charging time, some lanterns take longer to charge than others.
