Description
This battery LED hurricane lantern keeps the familiar outline of a traditional storm lamp, with a vented cap, a clear glass globe inside a crossed wire guard and a wide round base, but an LED sits where the wick would be. The body is metal with a smooth coloured finish, and we offer it in four colours: light blue, red, pink and green. It stands about 24cm tall without its hanging loop or carrying handle, and 35.8cm at its full height, measuring 15.2cm long and 11.5cm wide.
Its size suits a bedside table, a bookshelf, a mantelpiece or a hallway console, giving a cosy point of light once evening draws in. A rotary switch on the front sets the brightness: turn it clockwise to brighten and anticlockwise to dim, up to a maximum of 60 lumens of cool white light. That means a low, gentle glow while you wind down, or a brighter setting for a dark corner of the sitting room. It is a lantern for dry rooms indoors only. Light blue and pink sit sweetly in a bedroom, red brings a cheerful note to a shelf, and green looks at home among books and houseplants.
It runs on four AA batteries, so there is no flex to trail across the room and no socket to find. At 0.349KG it is easy to lift by its carrying handle and move from one room to another, and the hanging loop on top lets it hang from a sturdy indoor hook as well as stand on a flat surface. For care, dust the metal and glass with a soft dry cloth and keep moisture away from the switch. Pair two colours on a sideboard, or wrap one as a thoughtful gift for anyone who loves a softly lit corner.
