Re: Budget Rayovac 6 Vollt LED Floating Lantern - 10 LED's
Home Depot was out of the combo unit with a lantern, two 2AA flashlights and the LED panel light. But the more I thought about it the simpler single large floating lantern made more sense, for my purposes. I inspected the Eveready 3 LED, Dorcy Illuminator, Dorcy 13 LED, Life Gear 13 LED(No folded florescent tubes) 4AA with Red LED, Rayovac Krypton Value, Rayovac Krypton Yellow with Integrated Flip Down Stand. Ill go back one more time with a Rayovac 10 LEd with battery inserted and compare it against the Life Gear 13 LED 4AA which is set up to Try ME! Id like to try the Dorcy 13 LED as well. But Im pretty happy with the two Rayovacs I picked up. They are all black, but Ill get some bright orange or yellow refelctive tape for them. The handle on these is much more comfortable than the uncomfortable Eveready 4 LED 25 Lumen, but not as comfortable as the Dorcy 13 LED Floating Lantern (which was $15 at KMart). The Dorcy was also significantly larger, with a larger head and a larger body. Most of the lanterns were flat backed tail standers but not all. The Rayovac 10 LED tailstands easy.
I wonder if an older Krypton model of floating lantern with a 1 watt LED Upgrade Bulb would compare in brightness, throw, spill, runtime. Hmmm...
