Just received this product so I will defer commenting on battery life until later. Overall I have been very pleased and surprised with this product. First off, this lantern is fairly compact...I was under the impression that this would be larger from the pictures but once I opened it up, I was pleasingly surprised. The unit is very compact and feels very sturdy. There is rubber on the base and around the lower portion of the lantern, the switch is very easy to operate and has 3-modes (High, Low, and Strobe). The entire top/globe can be unscrewed and hung upside down (clip in the base) to use as a room or tent light in "bare bulb" mode. Overall I have been very impressed with the output of this lantern as well. This is a very bright lantern for it's compact size; outshining normal 4D fluorescent U-tubed lanterns and a coleman pack-away LED lantern. The diffuser is also very pleasing with no rings, lines, or shadows to speak of. In bare bulb mode, the light is almost too bright for your eyes but works well if it's hung high overhead (so you're not looking directly at the unit). Low mode is also very useful and brighter than your typical "nightlight" levels in other LED lanterns "low" modes. Overall I am very impressed with this product and plan to purchase more of these units for use while night fishing, camping, and to use during power failures.

Update (10/31/09): Just an update, I recently used this light in a power outage and it performed great. Bright and the batteries are still going strong. I also purchased 2 additional units and with just 3-D batteries each, who can complain! This is a great compact lantern.

Basically in agreement with the positive reviews, with a few quibbles.

(1) Changing the batteries is a clumsy operation. The base twists off to load the batteries. Putting back the base however requires a tricky alignment of the contacts. The base has two sections. The section with the contacts rotate freely about the section that you grip. Maybe I'm just clumsy, took me six tries. [[Update 5/18/2012. See notes below for hints on battery installation.]]

(2) Overall rugged materials and construction, with the exception of the tent hook. Cheap plastic, probably would break if dropped. Folds flat into the base. But held in place only by friction fit. If you use it enough, it will probably wear and no longer stay folded in place. If you don't fold and unfold the hook often, not a problem.

(3) Even when the power is off, one LED flashes every couple of seconds (like a smoke detector). This is a "finder beacon" to allow you to locate the lantern in a dark tent or room. I keep it around for emergencies. I don't know whether this causes any significant drain on the battery. When I have time, I'll check with the manufacturer. [[Update 4/30/2012. Battery drainage by the finder LED is negligible. See notes below. New reviewers continue to believe that battery drainage is a problem. It is definitely not.]]

(4) Still, it's one of the few units that run on a few (3) D-Cells. Many run on AA cells or then jump to 8-D-Cells. AA cells don't last as long, of course, but 8 D-Cells by themselves weigh a ton. Good unit for the price. Another example of Amazon's quirky pricing,though. Seems to vary from $26 $30 on a daily basis. Still, Amazon's shipping and customer service is amazing.

Note added 9/13/09: There are differing opinions about ease of battery installation. As I originally reported, the problem is that the bottom cap consists of two pieces that are joined by a pivot. The inside piece, with the notches that lines up with the tabs in the battery compartment, is free to swivel about the outer piece that you actually grip. So you first line up the notches with the tabs, but when you try to seat the cap, the inside piece can swing out of alignment. I bought two units. One is easy to assemble because the pivot is tight, and the inside piece doesn't swing too freely. The other is a pain because the pivot is loose, and the inside piece swings easily. I think that's why some people say it's frustrating and others have no problem...depends on how tight the pivot in their unit is. This is difficult to explain without a diagram. Still, I think the configuration is poorly engineered. However, this is an operation you don't need to do often, unless you use it constantly.

Note added 4/27/10: I've had a unit with the same set of batteries for a year now (infrequent use), so current drain by the beacon LED is minimal. No need to disable it or remove the batteries. But I do agree with others that the beacon LED is useless because its emission field is so narrow that you can't see it unless you're staring at it straight on.

Note added 11/6/2011: Here's a comment I posted in response to another review concerning the battery installation issue. I thought others might find it helpful, so I'm reposting it here.

Look at the first two photos posted by SirMontego. The first shot shows a close-up of aligning the groove on the top contact plate (which is mounted on the cover and is free to pivot) with the tongue on the bottom contact plate (which is fixed to the body of the lantern). The second shot shows a wider angle view of the contact assembly. The problem comes about at the next step (not shown). You now need to swing the cover over the body of the lantern in order to seat it. In so doing, the tongue can slip out of the groove since the top contact plate is free to pivot about the cover. If the pivot is snug, then the tongue tends to stay in the groove, and seating the cover is easy. If the pivot is loose, then the tongue can easily slip out of the groove. I have three of these units. One pivot is snug, one is slightly loose, and one is very loose. Customers who get units with loose pivots cuss about the idiotic contact assembly; customers who get units with snug pivots can't understand why others are such klutzes. I have seen many designs of battery installations in flashlights. Streamlight gets it right consistently. The most idiotic is on the Eveready Hardcase Pro 4-D lantern. The one on this lantern is on the clumsy side, but would be fine if the pivots were consistently snug.

Note added 11/6/2011: I notice that recent reviews are still concerned about current drain from the beacon light. Here's another data point. I've had one lantern now for ~2-1/2 yrs, still with its original set of batteries. Until this past week it was used only intermittently. I was caught up in the pre-Halloween snowstorm and had no power for 4 days. I ran this lantern on low for ~20 hrs total (not continuous). I still have not had to change out the batteries.

OK folks,

let me start off by saying that I am a flashlight afficionado. If you ask me about pistols, rifles, knives, or lights...you are now in my world, and I will talk your ears off.

Let me say that this is a great little lantern. I was walking around my local "Big Boys Covet Store" (Lowes) and saw this lantern on sale. I went over to check it out and inspect it, and then kept it on the back of my mind. When I got home, I went to one of my internet hang-outs (CandlePowerForum.com) and plugged in the lantern for some feedback, or reviews. Evidently it was very highly talked about. So I went back the next day (or was it IMMEDIATELY?) to purchase the little lantern. I gotta admit, I was not disappointed.

Since I have gotten the lantern, it is my new ruck sack companion. I will not leave to a mountain trek without it. And when I am not out in the bush, it stays on top of my reloading bench in case of an emergency blackout...or an earthquake. (I live in the San Freakcisco Bay Area).

The light is small (3.5" x 3.5" x 7.5"), but is plenty tough. It has a great rubber base, a rubber top section, and rubber side grips. Like the earlier folks stated, it has a HIGH, a LOW, and a STROBE function. As for the installation of the batteries...yea...I was scratching my head for a few seconds the first time. (No, not minutes seconds). But after I looked at it for a second or two, it was pretty easy to see how it was supposed to go on, and I have not had a problem since then.

The little plastic hook on top is a total waste to me. Why? Because everthing else on this little beast is built so well, and then the did this?! (Added a flimsy little "Alfalfa Hair Piece" to the top of this exceptional little lantern). It has not broken on me yet but then again, I will not take the chance of hanging the lantern from this flimsy little hook and provoking Mr Murphy to curse the lantern to fall and possibly break.

It is small and compact, but beefy and with heft.

Like I said, it's a great little lantern for the money.

You will not regret it.

Honest reviews on Rayovac Sportsman LED Lantern (SE3DLN)

I bought this Rayovac latern off of Amazon after reading tons of reviews and visiting some other sites about the quality of this product. I did happen to give this lantern it's full fledged test at a camp out this past 4th of July weekend and put it head to head with other lanterns. One of the other lanterns were Energizer's 3D cell 12 led Weather Ready from Walmart, the other was a Coleman 8D cell CFL type lantern, and the third was your basic Coleman propane lantern. The Rayovac was the most compact of the bunch, next was the Energizer, then the CFL Coleman, and lastly the propane lantern.

Now when it came to my shopping there were 2 things that were high on my list. 1st was the brightness level. 2nd was the energy (batteries,fuel, etc.) needed to run the product and the longevity of the energy (how long could I run it before having to change the batteries etc.

Let me run through the energy and consumption level. Obviously since the propane lantern runs on "fire" it did consume it's fuel the fastest, because we had to change the propane canisters at least twice for the 3 night camp. As for the other 3 I still have no idea. I would think that the CFL lantern would go out before the Rayovac and Energizer, that and the fact that it takes 8D cells make running it a little more costly. The Energizer claims 3 weeks running time at 5 hours a day use and the Rayovac claims around 75-150 hours running time, so I would call it a fairly even match between the two.

Now let's get to what your really interested in and discuss brightness level. This is purely based on what I saw and has nothing to do with comparing LED's with CFL's etc. On an overall brightness scale reguardless of type, the overall winner was your standard propane lantern. On max output it clearly outperformed the lot. To my surprise, the Coleman CFL was the second brightest. It was equivilent to your standard CFL light in a household setting and we were all impressed at how bright it was coming pretty close to the propane output. As for the LED lanterns... the Rayovac outshown the Energizer. With the top portion of the Ravovac removed and flipped upside down as a tent light, the Rayovac quickly impressed me with lighting up a fairly reasonable amount of area with light. The only edge that I thought the Energizer had was it's adjustablity to brighten and dim at the turn of a switch while the Rayovac had either bright or semi-bright. Though this is about light output and 2 of the Rayovacs hung upside down with the top removed can easily light a 10X20 camping area (the size of our canopy tent).

My conclusion on overall performance. One of the three propane lanterns caught on fire due to some kind malfunction and the fact that you have to light them with a match, change canisters on a regular basis, and change those bag things every other trip puts propane at the bottom. 3rd place would have to be the Energizer. Although it uses only 3D cells and had light adjustment equivilent to the propane lantern, it was still the dimmest (although still very bright) of the lot. 2nd would have to be the Coleman CFL. It uses batteries, although a wopping 8D cells, but is much safer than a propane lantern catching on fire. It is extremely bright, 2nd only to the propane. It's only downfalls would be the price and I'm assuming battery life as compared to LEDs. The winner in my book, is obvioulsy the Rayovac. It was the brighter of the two LED models, it's very compact, uses only 3D cells, has long battery life, can change from a free standing lantern to a hanging light(very good bonus feature), and is very well priced on Amazon. I am the owner of three of the products tested and am giving my unbiased opinion. I would highly recomend the Rayovac and plan on buying one or two more for some serious light.

Let me start off by saying that this is overall a VERY good product, but receives 3 stars for a design flaw.

The green LED is ALWAYS blinking, even with the main switch "off". This constant parasitic drain on the batteries ruins my intended use of a long-term storage emergency light for the house.

I did call Rayovac on this issue and they said that it will drain the batteries in 32 days. This cannot be accurate and I know that this small load will take MUCH longer than 32 days to drain the batteries. Still, for my purpose I now must remove the batteries and fumble in the dark to put them in during a power failure.

The difficult battery cover (mentioned by many in the reviews) does not help this issue!

Yet another product that is ALMOST great. I would have bought many more of these for family members to use as emergency lights, but now have to find a better option where the batteries will still be full after long term storage.

Hope this helps!

Cheap LEDwholesalers 9 red LED Light Flashlight Aviator AAA Torch

Customer Ratings: 4 stars

For the more serious astronomer, who views from dark sites and wants to protect every bit of night vision, this flashlight has two problems. It is too bright, and the "red" appears closer to orange. You eyes will not be fully dark-adapted for viewing faint galaxies and nebulae if you use this light.

However, for casual observing or student use in light polluted settings, or non-astronomical use, this flashlight is sufficient. It is well made and is a handy size, and for the price is hard to beat.

I purchased this flashlight for night-time astronomy, because red light does not have much effect on night vision. It works as desired. The output is fairly strong and collimated, enough that I've used it to walk in the dark and avoid obstructions on the ground, and maybe a little bright close-in to the telescope, but not intolerably bright. A bit painful if you look straight into the beam, even in daylight.

Let me assure you that it does put out only red light; like others, I saw the picture on Amazon showing clear LEDs and worried about what I was getting, but when turned on they emit red light. The light is "red enough" for night use, not orange.

The beam is bright and quite collimated, but this did not seem to be too much of a problem when used with our telescope. The front is 1 inch in diameter, with a flat piece of clear plastic protecting the nine LEDs. It doesn't appear to be a focusing lens; the LEDs themselves are fairly collimated, and all aligned, and project light in one direction. You could conceivably tape some sort of diffuser over the front. I found that the translucent cap from a small bottled plastic water bottle was the right size and would diffuse the beam, but didn't bother to try this. I'll try it next time, to soften and spread the beam for astronomy use.

At a distance of 1 foot, the brightest part of the beam is a uniform 3.5 inches. At 3 feet it's about 12 inches in diameter. Outside these circles there's still light but much weaker.

Th flashlight is metal with a large pushbutton at the rear covered with a flexible rubber-like material 5/8 inch in diameter, and it appears reliable and sturdy (although I've only used it for a few weeks). The rear unscrews to open the battery compartment, and this cover is sealed with an O-ring the keep out water. The front 1 inch cylinder (with the the LEDs) also unscrews (also sealed with an O-ring), and the battery holder will slide out this way as well. I certainly wouldn't use it underwater, but it seems fairly sealed against occcasional moisture.

There is a slot at side of the rear with a removable 5/8 inch metal ring (like a keyring) that holds a 2 inch lanyard. You could attach something longer, e.g., if you wanted to wear it around your neck. It's fairly lightweight with batteries.

I've noticed a spate of flashlights with very similar metal construction and on/off rear pushbuttons. The battery holders are identical: a cylindrical assembly that holds three AAA batteries and has an arrow on the side to show the insertion direction. This also seems well-made. Because LEDs draw little power, I'd imagine it lasts a long time on these batteries, but I haven't tested this.

Because I have five very similar flashlights from different sources (normal, UV, with embedded red laser, etc.) with very similar metal bodies, on/off buttons, and battery holders, I'm guessing that there's one manufacturer (or a few; in China?) producing all of them to slightly different specs. They all seem reliable; I've never had an issue with the pushbuttons, although you might get the occasional lemon.

I think these similar flashlights vary a lot in retail price, but my purchase (from LEDWhilesalers and fulfilled by Amazon with Prime shipping) cost $15 9 red LED Light Flashlight Aviator AAA Torch Astronomy, 7301 blue, and that's a pretty good deal. So overall I'm very pleased, and would recommend this item.

I purchased this flashlight for a night time volunteer project I was on. It was purchased along with the Maxxima flashlight I have also reviewed. I anticipated that this flashlight, having MORE led's than the Maxxima would be brighter. NO. It's not bad and it has a compact size which works well when you want to just slide it in a pocket. But if you are looking for distance, you won't have it. This really is about up close, need to read something and don't want to lose my night vision.

It's a decent, well made product though.

Honest reviews on LEDwholesalers 9 red LED Light Flashlight Aviator AAA Torch

I received this "red LED light flashlight" and saw that the LED's were clear (white). Without even trying it out, I immediately responded with bad reviews----and as a last minute thought, decided to put batteries in it. To my surprize, it projected a RED beam as promised. My previous review hopefully will be removed and replaced with this one. The product is exactly as described. The seller was quite prompt and the entire transaction was flawless...except for my own ignorance. I apologize to Amazon and the seller. This is a great little RED BEAM flashlight that will work wonderfully for my astronomy hobby.

I am very happy with the size and look of this pendant light. It is hanging over the table in our dinette. The one thing I would consider a negative is the quality of the metal(made in China). When my husband squeezed one of the links in the chain to close it up, it broke and the light crashed to the table. Fortunately he hadn't attached the glass globe yet. The metal "arms" that float over the globe are different heights from the glass. The "nut" that attaches the ceiling cover over the electrical box is of poor quality, ruff edges and difficult to get the threads to screw on. Three 40W bulbs give a gracious amount of light. 60W is too much.

I have a few different models form this company and they are all high quality with clever designs. Before I found these, I thought that solar lights were just for lighting. These products really take it to the next level allowing you to decorate your nighttime out door space.

These lights are great for your patio table as you turn them over during the day and then back again at night and they illuminate like a tea light. They are sturdy and can hold up to many drops (believe me I have dropped them a lot!) Great looking design too.

The one down side though is if you forget to turn them over for charging, you are out of luck the next night.

I have purchased some Peachtree products and like them, but IMO the Magtite Base work light from Rockler, also available through Amazon, is a better deal, though it is higher priced at $29.99. (But free shipping moves the prices closer together, since Peachtree has a $6.99 shipping charge for this item making it almost $24 with shipping.)

The Magtite has an 18' power cord,vs. 5' for this one, you get a spring clamp for clamping onto things when the magnetic base won't work, and you also get a second cage-type reflector good for working on cars or other areas that where the light may need more protection from swinging tools or other hazards. And most customer reviews for the Magtite light as of today (12/17) give it 5 stars.

I had purchased some of these from another source previously that have worked well. Unfortunately they are no longer available from the where I got them before. The ones from Peachtree are almost identical, except they have a smaller base and weaker magnet. Cost cutting by the manufacturer?

The magnet is not strong enough to securely support the light on any surface. In addition on one of the two I bought, the magnet came loose immeadietly and had to be epoxied.

Otherwise it is a good fixture to hold LED spot light bulbs to provide additional lighting on a work area. If you know where you want it, maybe it could be screwed down.

This pair of lamps arrived at my home looking exactly like the photo...they were a holiday gift for my daughter, and they look fabulous on her dresser! They are solid too, not cheap and lightweight like most sold in discount stores.

I just finished unpacking these, plugging them in and putting them on my nightstands and I'm THRILLED with their look. They look and feel far more expensive than they are. They're a great height at 27" and they have real heft to them. I bought mine on sale for $53 plus $21 shipping and they were completely worth it. I'll have these lamps for years. The seller was terrific too. They shipped fast. They packed them so well I got frustrated trying to get the box open. Not a scratch, not a dent. Perfect! The color is exactly as pictured -it's what I'd call metallic -a silvery, pewter-like finish with a hint of gold to it. The photo doesn't do the shades justice. They look much richer in person. They're tan with a black, lightly-embossed, florentine pattern (not flowers). Very modern and contemporary and I can't say enough nice things about these lamps or the seller except to tell you to feel absolutely comfortable buying these. They're really nice :)

When I received these lamps they were in terrible shape... There was some type of thick glue all over one of them... And you can't really tell from the picture but the base has this weird tiger stripe design that does match the shade... I spray painted the whole bottom a metallic silver... They look nice now... But wasnt what I was expecting... However, the seller was excellent and gave me a partial refund
