TIP: The online Bushwalk Inventory System can help bushwalkers with a variety of bushwalk planning tasks, including: Manage which items they take bushwalking so that they do not forget anything they might need, plan meals for their walks, and automatically compile food/fuel shopping lists (lists of consumables) required to make and cook the meals for each walk. It is particularly useful for planning for groups who share food or other items, but is also useful for individual walkers.
I had a small lantern, maybe 40 mm high and a diameter a bit bigger than a CMOS battery. I cannot locate this in the shops. Can anyone advise where such a lantern or similar can be bought?
I can highly recommend the nitecore LR10 USB rechargeable lantern. Has a good 8 lumen low setting that will last week's and two higher settings. It's very robust, has a hang loop and a magnetic base. Best lantern I've ever had
Thanks. I was after a small lightweight lantern to complement my head torch. I had a lantern with a CMOS battery, worked well. I'll see what is in the shops.
I only had the Niteize Moonlit and not used the Decathlon offering but I have given up on that battery format as it's not rechargeable and I don't want to carry lots of button cells.
I've got one of the USB lanterns to use with a power bank instead however it is not as lantern like or as handy and clip-onable as the others
