This Goal Zero mini core lantern is a no-fuss lightweight option that has an impressive 210 lumens output that, in a pinch can charge your other electronic devices.
Goal Zero says:
Light up any situation with 210 lumens of bright LED light with the Lighthouse Rechargeable Mini Lantern. Includes a built-in USB port to power small devices.
Our Verdict
The lantern’s main feature is the dual light sectioning, so you have a good degree of control over how much output and battery the lantern uses. For example, only lighting half of the lantern on the lowest setting is perfect for in-tent use.
Being able to charge a phone or satellite communications device in an emergency is also a nice feature.
