What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying:"I keep a few of these in my pack and glove box because they weigh next to nothing and put out way more light than you'd expect. The color modes are surprisingly useful around camp-soft ambient light for cooking and brighter white when I need to actually see what I'm doing."We bring the Nova Colors Solar Lanterns along when the day winds down and we still want the trail, campsite, or backyard to feel alive. LuminAID's design lets us twist the lantern flat in our pack, then inflate it in seconds when dusk settles in. With color modes and multiple white-light levels, it helps us set the mood for everything from late-night card games to calming camp chores. Once we're settled, the lantern's solar charging keeps things simple. After a full day in the sun or a quick USB top-off, the Nova Colors provides reliable light without extra batteries or fuss. Waterproof construction means we can use it on the water, in the rain, or clipped to a tent line without worry-making this compact lantern an easy companion whenever we need dependable, packable illumination.
