Light Up Your Summer With These Lanterns and Flashlights
Summer is upon us, and that means warmer nights, clearer skies, and more time spent outside. Whether you’re looking for a headlamp for a long distance backpacking trip, a small flashlight to keep in your pack, or a great lamp for backyard camping trips, here are four types of lights all outdoor enthusiasts should have.
A Quality Headlamp
If you’re a headlamp sceptic, you probably haven’t tried one. For camping, night hiking, or even navigating your home when the power goes out, headlamps are highly useful. A few of our picks for great headlamps include:
- The economical and highly functional VIVIDLED USB Rechargeable Headlamp
- The slightly fancier Foxelli USB Rechargeable Headlamp with 100 hours of life with one charge
- The elite multi-functional HL8 Focusing 615 Lumen LED Headlamp
A Pocket Flashlight
A pocket flashlight is another must have for your Summer adventures. A small light that can travel anywhere with you should be light-weight, bright, and have a long lasting battery. Wherever your summer adventures take you, we’d recommend these flashlights:
- The Coast G25 LED Flashlight with long lasting battery and nearly 150-foot beam distance
- The waterproof and reliable Outlite 501B High Power LED Flashlight
- This adjustable lightweight Coast HP7 Focusing LED Flashlight
A Heavy Duty Flashlight
For quick trips, a pocket flashlight is a great solution. If you’re going far off the beaten path, however, you may need a heavier duty flashlight. With longer range beams and high powered batteries, some of our recommended heavy duty flashlights include:
- The Odear Super Bright Outdoor Handheld Portable USB Rechargeable Flashlight
- The Zoro Tactical Lantern
A Tabletop or Hanging Lantern
Finally, for all of your outdoor Summer needs, tabletop and hanging lanterns will make your life a whole lot easier. For lighting up tents, seating areas, or finding your way to the campsite, here are a few great tabletop and hanging lanterns:
- This Etekcity 2 Pack Portable Outdoor LED Camping Lantern for under $20
- The AYL StarLight, a highly durable option with batteries that will last for six days straight
- For The Coleman LED Quad Lantern, for a multifunctional, long lasting option
