I agree. 500 lumens would be good for a directional flashlight, but for an omnidirectional lantern, it's dim. It would work well inside a pillow fort, I suppose.

Pair it with some rechargeable AAA batteries and you definitely have a nice little deal for only $5

Personally, I have the 1K lum version, and while it's not on sale I'd recommend going with it instead. At least for me, it was well worth $10. Not just double the brightness, but more than double the battery life using AAs instead of AAAs. Either way, regardless of the version that one buys still use rechargeable batteries, of course.

Yeah I've just done the Amazon Basics ones in the past and I've been happy with them - https://a.co/d/01DFN8gZ . You can easily find a 4-port charger for them as well for under $10.

Extra information:
Since I've done the research in the past, here is some additional info. There are generally two kinds of AA and AAA rechargeable batteries - NiMH and Li-ion. NiMH are 1.2V and Li-ion are usually 1.5V. So Li-ion you may actually be able to eke out a little extra brightness out of it, though probably not very noticeable. Li-ion tend to be a little more pricey though as well.

The biggest thing is that they use different chargers, so if you ever decided to go with the Li-ion, make sure that the charger doesn't say "NiMH only."They do actually make universal chargers as well though for still under $10, like this one - https://a.co/d/0jktfnzb that can do both types.

The 1K version is also significantly larger though. The main selling point on this 500 lumen one in my opinion is the small size/weight. Plenty good enough for ambient light in a tent and won't take up much space in your pack. Clip is handy too.

If portability is not a concern a bigger and brighter one (with better battery life) would be better for most. If a tiny size is of paramount importance, hard to beat for 5 bucks, if you have a need for this sort of thing.

The image of a person holding it in their hands is a great guide for the size.

In my experience 1.5V battery makes a noticeable difference in brightness vs 1.2V , so be aware when choosing

I bought 6 of them to put on outdoor tables for a party. They are plenty bright for camping, patio tables, etc.
