I bought this portable camping lantern led flashight for the reason that this is really important to use, especially if ever brown out or no electricity. I 'll give this as a present to my beloved father. I am sure he will be happy for this type of camping lantern led flashlight. This is a small but the light is bright. It is working great! Good for camping, fishing, or any outdoor activities. You need 3 AA batteries for this led flashlight. Highly recommended!
