outside a sporting goods store sale today there was one of these on their "free - take what you want, don't be greedy" table.
Luci - solar lantern a solar lantern. 4 oz. 10 led. 15 sq ft of light - sure lit up our closet at home when we tried it! 6 - 12 hrs from a full charge. collapses to 1" in height. inflatable. waterproof. two light levels + flashes too.
i rarely get excited about a product - but this sure seems to be the answer to a lot of issues.
oh. they're selling on line @ $14.95.
i had never heard of them and can't wait to field test it tomorrow night on an overnight backpack.
i have -0- relationship with the company. i was just that impressed that i had to bring it to the group.
