I just got back from Walmart and saw they had 3 packs of the 1D 1LED lanterns.
I didn't open the box or look carefully at them as my hands were half full but they looks like a clone of the energizer accent lanterns on the box and sported the 200 hour claim on the side. They looked to have a different hanging system and pehaps no stakes but the price was right..... $9.99 for three.
I do not recall the brand but I found them at the front near the registers with some garden type stuff.

I also spotted some cheap $5.88 plastic case 9LED 3AAA garrity lights, a funky looking 3AAA 3x1.5watt LED flexible light, Energizer POD 4AAA/AA charger set claiming 3 hours for 1 set of 4 and 6 hours for 2 sets (8 cells). There were a few other things but I do not recall as I was in sort of a hurry to get home and eat lunch..... and no I didn't eat the batteries. :lolsign:
 
DON'T get me started on these again! You KNOW I like these!! They are a GREAT little, long run light for all sorts of purposes around the house/tent etc - ESPECIALLY GREAT for power outages!!! They're absolutely worth the price (well at least the Energizers were).

Stop twisting my arm...(and thanks very much for that last batch!!)

Pics? How many did they have? :ohgeez:

I think I saw at least 4 boxes but if they are selling them at all walmarts they could have 50 boxes each somewhere hidden perhaps thousands.... maybe someone else will buy a box and take a pic as I still have a few boxes left of the energizers stashed for myself :laughing:

Oh, the bosex were I think white/offwhite and have them three in a row inside like the energizers are packed. They have some genericcy sounding name brand on them..... garden fluff sounding but I cannot rememer that.
 
Seems someone just recently posted something with a pic of these around these halls - but I can't find it. I know they looked like the Energizers with a different name and another member even commented about the "re-branding".
 
Some time back I reported seeing knock-offs at a Dollar General store for $6/3-pack. Well, they're back, at least at this particular store. Only three boxes, so maybe they're just cleaning up the stockroom. I looked at one closely before and found the plastic thinner/cheaper and the hang ring different than the Energizer Accents. I didn't buy any, but may go back today on the chance they're on clearance now.

Could be the same maker of the ones I saw at Walmart. They looked to have an eyelet type hangring and the box showed no branding on the black plastic base.

Sig-I recall a previous thread of someone buying some *clones* but I believe he got them overseas in another country.... perhaps in the country they are made, I don't recall any more than that.
