4 or 5 LED Lanterns.
1 rechargeable the rest run on batteries and last a long long time (days) before dead, and then when dead we have new batteries.

We have not had power for 5 days and used the lanterns and they work fine. We have used them through probably 10 more days of power outages and still as bright as first day

We don't only use them for occasional use too they are used for reading (with or without power) as well as low setting leaving lit to light up an entire room.

Original batteries still!

Next power outage.... next week by my estimate!
