Energizer Lantern

I was about to buy this Energizer Weather ready http://www.homedepot.com/h_d1/N-5yc1vZ1xgy/R-202020734/h_d2/ProductDisplay?langId=-1storeId=10051catalogId=10053



Until I came across this solar Energizer lantern on my way out:

I know the Energizer weather ready has a longer run time, but the solar aspect of the other could be really useful. How much of a step down would I be taking going with the latter? Thanks!

Get the Weatheready Lantern. Sure solar is great, but from my experience with solar panels, esp on calculators, they break easily. The Weatheready seems to be more ruggedized. I have a different Weatheready, the one that has a krypton bulb, 3 white LED's and one amber LED. I carry the keychain light that came on top of it on my car keys.
