This Brunton lantern is basically a twin to an Osram Golden Dragon Camping Lantern, but uses four 5mm LED instead of a single, high output LED. The Brunton lantern is definitely much dimmer than the Osram or River Rock, but perhaps that's sufficient for your lighting needs, plus it has a very long runtime. I believe Brookstone carries (or carried) a version of the Brunton, so you might be able to try-before-you-buy if you have a Brookstone nearby. But if you want bright, stick with finding a River Rock. The Osram is great, but is apparently very, very rare and costs maybe about $10 more than the River Rock.
