I used to own a battery-powered camping lantern, and loved it. I needed a light source for car work (parking lot, no garage), and picked this up to help with that.It turns out mobile lighting has gotten much better since 2008 or so.Major pros:- Super lightweight- Large battery, fast microusb charge- Option to charge devices from the battery via a USB-A plug- Included clip- Different modes. Especially excited about the flashing red lantern; I'm getting another to keep in our car in case of roadsiSee full review
