    Use for River Rock lantern gone bad

    Could the problem be just a dead battery? :sssh: Without proper cycling, some batteries may lose their ability to hold a charge. On multiple occasions, I've had the NiCads in an LSI rechargeable handheld spotlight go bad after a long period of storage. With little use, the bulb is probably...

    I think i may be "burning out"of the flashlight thing.
