Although many of us rely on the flashlights from our smartphones to illuminate a path in front of us or brighten up a dark room at a moment’s notice, these limited beams are simply not sufficient enough to light up an entire room or campsite alone, or for very long.
Fenix, who’s known for its high-performing and versatile flashlights and lanterns, just dropped a new addition to its lantern line. Weighing just 13.26oz, the CL28R might just be the end-all lighting source for camping and emergency situations. Not only does it boast an IP66 water-resistance rating, a tripod socket, and a magnetic handle for hands-free placement, but the 360-degree lantern sports a stepless brightness adjustment knob up to 2,000 lumens and can last up to 360 hours on the lowest brightness setting after just 4 hours of charging.
Additionally, the CL28R comes with a second knob to adjust the light’s color temperature, from white light to incandescent-like warm light to natural daylight. Able to throw its beam up to 58m (191ft), the lantern is perfect for wilderness trips and backpacking, doubling as a power bank that can charge two devices with USB-A and USB-C ports.
Priced at $132, the impressive CL28R Lantern is available for pre-order from Fenix, with shipments expected to commence on January 23.
