What "serious outdoor" situation are you envisioning that is going to involve jetting water or worse? I think we can all agree this wasn't designed for tactical maritime operations or scuba adventures

IPX0 – No protection
IPX1 – Shields from dripping water
IPX2 – Guards against vertically dripping water
IPX3 – Fends off sprays up to 60°
IPX4 – Repels splashing water, from any angle (AKA, really bad rain)
IPX5 – Defends against water jets in all directions
IPX6 – Stands tall against powerful water jets
IPX7 – Holds its ground in water up to 3 feet (1 meter)
IPX8 – Thrives when immersed in water over 3 feet

I bought this light the last time they were on sale. I feel they are too dim for most situations. Maybe a light in the bathroom during a power outage, but not much more.

Seems to have long runtime and can run on as few as 2xAAs in a pinch, but it's only IPX4 so it's not that suitable for serious outdoor. Good price for an indoor emergency lantern.

Thanks for the testimony. I'll pass because it relies on battery power. I need a recharable.

I have this and 250 lumen is low for spotlight/target lighting but it's super practical if you're trying to illuminate a work surface and not burn out your retinas looking at it for an extended period of time. Think prepping a meal while camping at night and you don't want to drain headlamp battery or if you have a group over and the lawn games go late.

At $6 don't think about it too hard.

If you don't already have one. I recommend having at least a couple lights that run on regular old batteries. Great to have in a pinch.

FYI got a couple of these a few weeks ago when they were on sale & some of them were duds. But the ones that do work are great. Have one hanging in the garage, hall closet & under the kitchen sink just in case of brown & black outs.

I was trying to figure out the batteries used (2 or 4 AA).

I love the battery life in the technical details section (listing in scientific notation)

I own two of these. Bought when they were two for under $10. They put out great light for such a very lightweight device. The best part is that they work on two batteries each instead of four. I am very satisfied with them.

I put rechargeable lithium AAs in these and they last forever. They're also much brighter than nimh rechargeables because they can sustain 1.5v

I ordered these and FYI the issue you are likely experiencing is the same as I had: putting rechargeable AAs in them.

They don't work well with the lower voltage NiMHs produce. They are MUCH brighter if you put single-use Alkalines in them. Poor design but if you're aware of it it might still be a good deal
