    Amazon.com Product Description:
    Light up your campsite with instant, long-lasting illumination with the Coleman rugged battery-powered lantern. The family-size lantern boasts a 13-watt fluorescent twin U-tube bulb that delivers a bright white light, along with a heavy-duty thermoplastic and rubber housing that holds up to heavy use. More significantly, the lantern will keep your tent well lit for hours, with a runtime of up to 28 hours on the low setting and 18 hours on the high setting (the lantern runs on eight D batteries, sold separately). And should the bulb eventually burn out, you can replace it in seconds thanks to the lantern's quick-release system. Other details include a comfortable handle grip, an easy three-position switch (off, low, and high), a weather- and shatter-resistant exterior, and a nonslip rubberized grip. The lantern--which runs cool thanks to the cool-touch bulb design--measures 9 inches in diameter and 15.25 inches tall and weighs 3.26 pounds without the batteries.

    About Coleman
    The Coleman Company has been creating and innovating products for recreational outdoor use since W.C. Coleman started selling gasoline-powered lanterns in 1900. Inventor of the hugely popular fold-up camp stove, Coleman developed a plastic liner for his galvanized steel coolers in 1957--the birth of the modern cooler--and the company has been improving their utility and design ever since. The array of products that bear the Coleman name now includes just about everything you might need to work or play outdoors, from tents and sleeping bags to boats, backpacks, and furniture.

    Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - I SNEER AT HURRICANES!
    Well, O.K., I don't sneer at hurricanes. But after Hurricane Ike and a week without power, we decided to upgrade our emergency lighting to more than flashlights, candles and chemical light sticks.

    I bought three of these family-sized Coleman lanterns and three MicroPacker lanterns (also reviewed). The first time I turned on this family-sized lantern I went "WOW!" This is a serious light! I measured the light output of this lantern (I'm a photojournalist) and discovered it puts out half ... Read More



    Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Bright and convenient
    I have tried several similar lamps. This is bright enough to read by comfortably. It's sturdy and uses easy to install D batteries which are available everywhere. Two light levels saves battery power.



    Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - This lantern rocks!
    This gives off a lot of light. When I put it on a table with a mirror behind it, it's even better. During a power outage, I can easily read with the amount of light this lantern produces.



    Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - pretty good!
    This is pretty good! The light is not all that bright but it works well for those times when we need to see what's going on in the barn at night. And it's been great in our recent power outages. I do recommend it.



    Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Battery operated lantern
    I bought the wrong one...I bought the one that was battery operated but I wanted the one that was recharable. So, I returned it, which, by the way, was so easy to do.
