How long does it run on a charge?

About 2 to 4 hours depending on which light source you use. The COB flood drains the 1200mAh battery faster than the 1W spot.

Can the solar panel charge it fully?

Only slowly. The small polysilicon panel is a trickle charger, so use micro-USB when you need a full charge in about 3 hours.

Is 250 lumens enough for camping?

For a tent, a table or a walk to the bathroom, yes. For lighting a group campsite or cooking area, no; look for a lantern rated several hundred lumens higher.

The lantern and a micro-USB charging cable. The 18650 battery is inside the light; no wall adapter is included.

How does it compare with a standard camping lantern?

It is smaller and adds solar charging plus a focused spot beam, but it is dimmer and shorter-running than a full-size lantern with a larger battery.

No water-resistance rating is stated. Treat it as splash-resistant at best and keep it out of rain.

Our take on the Solar Rechargeable LED Camping Lantern

What reviewers say

Owner feedback on this class of small solar camping light is mixed. People like the dual beam and the solar top-up for emergencies, but complain about short runtime and slow solar charging.

What people mention

BrightnessMixedOwners find the spot beam useful at close range but say 250 lumens will not light a campsite.
Battery lifeCriticisedThe 1200mAh cell lasts only a few hours, so it needs recharging most nights.
Solar chargingMixedThe panel works as a trickle top-up in daylight but is too slow to rely on alone.
BuildCriticisedThe ABS plastic housing feels light and cheap in the hand.
PortabilityPraisedAt around 120g it disappears into a pack or glovebox.
