I have a few Fenix light and like their light and quality. This is very nice as and the light modes are nice. The big downside for me is no side switch. It takes a lot of twisting to cycle through the modes.

Amazing little lantern.
It will be a great reading light while camping on the low settings. High settings light a whole room, which will come in handy here in the Santa Cruz Mountains where we get multiple power outages every winter.
I’m a mechanic, and the magnet makes it a great light for working on cars. It is so small, that you can put it right next to the area you are working. I no logger use the big corded light. I may fashion a reflector to slip over the globe to direct the light and keep it from shining in my eyes while working.
Hang it off you belt to make that early morning walk to your favorite fishing spot, and then it is a great light to ties your knots by on the low setting.
Hoping I never need it, but the colored lights could certainly come in handy as well. Amazing how many features are included in this tiny little light and I love that it uses the same batteries as my favorite EDC flashlight, the Fenix E15.
Considering buying a few more to keep in my vehicles. And as soon as I’m done here, I will be going on my local mountain neighborhood message board to recommend this useful little light.
I should also add that the build quality is excellent. Thanks Fenix!

This is my first Fenix purchase. I am totally blown away by the performance of this little lantern. The turbo setting lights up my whole room. We have power outages out here in the western suburbs of Chicago and I think this will be my go to item when I need it. Really have no use for the battery that comes with it. Will keep it charged as a backup. CR123A batteries are the way to go. Cheap and available in bulk. Yes I am very happy and sure will buy more. Thanks!

I have to admit I am a bit of a Fenix fan, having purchased 5 different flashlights. These lanterns are really neat from the magnet on the cap to the rechargeable battery. Played around with it for a bit and what a great little light! Actually thinking about purchasing 2 more just to light things up. I am very impressed with the quality and features, thanks Fenix for more lights than I need and will be coming back for more!
