Streamlight Siege Lantern vs Coast EAL22 Lantern

The Coast EAL22 is the brighter, more flexible lantern, with 1,250 lumens on high, warm and cool color temperatures, and a removable globe that turns it into an area light. The Streamlight Siege is the tougher, longer-running pick: it floats, survives 2-meter drops, and runs up to 295 hours on low white or 430 hours on SOS. Owners of both praise the build, but the Siege is the one to trust in a storm or on water, while the EAL22 suits campsite and power-outage use where maximum light matters.

  • Choose the Streamlight Siege if you want a waterproof, floating, drop-tested lantern with very long runtimes and a red night mode for emergencies.
  • Choose the Coast EAL22 if you want maximum brightness, warm or cool light, and a removable globe for lighting a whole room or tent.

Prices

  • Streamlight Siege Lantern: $23.48 at eBay (last seen Nov 9)

What reviewers say

Streamlight Siege Lantern

Owners treat the Siege as a tough, simple emergency and camping lantern. They praise the long battery life, the soft all-around glow and its survival in rain and drops. The main complaints are the lack of a battery gauge and the cost and weight of feeding it D cells.

What people mention
  • Battery lifePraisedOwners say a set of D cells lasts through many nights on low and medium.
  • BuildPraisedReviewers report it surviving rain, drops and even floating in water.
  • Light spreadPraisedThe 360-degree glow lights a tent or room evenly without a harsh hotspot.
  • Battery indicatorCriticisedUsers miss a gauge showing how much charge is left.

Questions and answers

Which is better for a power outage?
Both work, but the Siege runs far longer on low and has a 430-hour SOS mode. The EAL22 gives much more light when you need to illuminate a room.
Which one is more waterproof?
The Siege. It is waterproof and floats if dropped in water. The EAL22 is IP54, which resists dust and splashes but not submersion.
Which lasts longer on one set of batteries?
The Siege, by a wide margin: up to 295 hours on low white and 430 on SOS. The EAL22 tops out around 135 hours and drops to 9 hours on high.
Is the EAL22 worth stepping up to over the Siege?
Yes if brightness and light color matter most. Its 1,250 lumens, warm/cool options and removable globe beat the Siege for campsite and room lighting.
Which is better for camping and hanging in a tent?
The EAL22, thanks to its carabiners, folding handle and removable globe. The Siege hangs fine on its D-rings but is dimmer.
Do both use D batteries?
Yes, both run on three D cells, sold separately. The EAL22 also accepts a Coast ZX1010 rechargeable pack.
