i just got the 2 kirll lamps the 2aaa white lampe & the 2aa white extreme lamp but there not that bright, is that because it is not the green version???
 
Actually they were never that bright to begin with. While they were a cool little gadget when they came out, they were always over hyped when it came to brightness.
The green will appear to be a bit brighter, but not that much.
 
It's the technology they use, the EL light. They just aren't all that bright. But they do have a decent runtime and can wrap around the battery tube to provide a good approximation of a light stick that runs on batteries and isn't any bigger than the batteries that power it. I actually like them for night light type applications, but you're right, they aren't really a replacement for a lantern.
