Telescopic Camping Light, 720° Rotating Collapsible Magnetic Tripod Lantern

Kind of expensive but well made and designed. Battery lasts long time. Bright light a easy to change direction. Use it a short while ago during a bad storm and was glad we had it.

The Outask Camping Light is a great addition to my camping box. Sit it in the middle of a campground picnic table, extend it to its fullest height, and it will illuminate the entire table. It will definitely last for an entire weekend's camping trip with power to spare. I generally do not run it on the high setting; it is really bright. I have also found that it is great for around-the-house projects like working on plumbing under the sink and so forth, you get the idea. It is not the cheapest of lights, but once again, like many things, buy once, cry once. I highly recommend this light. The only complaint I have is that it should include a carrying case for the price; it must be purchased separately from another supplier.

Really nice light assembly. Sturdy and very bright with adjustable intensity and two light colors. Works great in poorly lit hotels or cabins too.

This is a little bit expensive, but for my use case, which is illuminating my Shift Pod (think desert optimized ice fishing tent) during Burning Man. I think I recharged it once during the two weeks I was there, so the battery life is excellent. The light head does get a little warm and it's plenty bright. I like that it's a single compact item that handles lighting a bunch of different situations - telescoped, non-telescoped, and emergency flashlight.

I bought this light for Camping, but it is so versatile, I find that I use it constantly. It’s magnetic and you can stick it just about anywhere. I did an all night beef brisket recently and used this light for cooking throughout the night. I don’t know how I ever lived without it. It’s an excellent quality, charge us quick, and the charge lasts a really long time. The light is very bright. It folds up nice and compact and I bought a little case to keep it in.

The battery absolutely does last a long time, and this is incredibly bright. So bright that it will burn your eyes on the lowest setting. I recommend buying the lampshades that outask sells as well. They fit awkwardly, but they work!

This is really a clever design. Basically, advancements in LED and battery technology now mean that you can have something that works more like a good-sized construction job site light than a flashlight or even a camping lantern, in a package that folds down so compactly that it can fit in a tool bag or even a backpack. In operation, it really does feel a bit like something out of a science fiction movie, because something that performs like this is normally supposed to be a lot larger, it just kind of resets your expectations of what is possible. Inside, point it up at the ceiling and it is like one of those big old torchiere lamps that lights up the whole room with indirect light, point it at a wall and now you have a good, wide-area work light, then close it up and point it straight down and now it becomes a small table lamp for sitting around the picnic table at a campsite or in a power outage. The magnetic feet mean you could stick it on your vehicle, etc. so there are an almost unlimited number of ways you could use this thing. It is too big and too awkward to be a flashlight, although you could use it as one in a pinch. The main limitation on using this thing is that you never want to look directly at the light itself or have the bare bulb directly in your line of site. Even on low, it is putting out enough light that looking directly at it is unpleasant. So it is really for indirect lighting only. It seems pretty well-built and solid. The tripod feet and the body containing the battery are plastic, but the expanding pole is metal, along with the head that contains the LEDs. It comes with stakes to hold it to the ground in windy conditions, and it should be able to handle at least light rain. I think it is primarily supposed to be used for camping, power-outages and stuff like that. But it feels like a kind of miniaturized job site light and I expect a lot of people are thinking about using it that way. For a simple camping light it is pretty expensive, but in comparison to a traditional job site light, particularly one that is battery powered, it is a relative bargain. I think the answer on using it as a job site light is maybe, basically depending on how roughly you want to treat it. I don't worry much about it surviving in the tool bag, it seems rugged enough when folded up and you can fold the emitter side in during transport to keep it from getting scratched or broken. On the other hand, I don't think I'd want it to get covered with plaster dust when it is opened up and in operation. The telescope mechanism, the little expanding tripod feet etc. probably won't cope with getting completely covered with dust and sand particularly well. So it is probably not for truly rough service, it isn't going to replace your wobble light or anything like that. There is no dust cover on the power switch, although the charge ports are at least covered with a rubber grommet. So yes, it can be a job site light if you are willing to baby it a bit, but it is not really designed to get truly abused. Overall, I like it, and I expect most people who buy this thing will like everything about it except for the high purchase price.

I have ordered so many of these as gifts. The product is fantastic and so useful. I don’t know a person I have given the light to who has not loved it. Great gift and handy for the outdoor person. Really cool product!

Praktisch Einziges Manko, man kann den Kopf nicht über die Teleskopstange drehen sondern muss den Standfuß drehen. Sonst echt klasse

Perfect size for camping or at home.

Excelente lampara, calidad y la pila dura bastante, lo unico malo es que son caras pero si son de calidad

👍

It has a nice design but the build quality is not good enough at this price point and for its intended purpose.
