Im looking for possible a smaller or maybe larger lantern for inside the tent or around camp site. Most that i saw at walmart were d battery powered. I would rather use aa. If thst limits me to a small one that is fine and i wouldnt want to use adapters. I think no more than 3-4 aa’s. Any good reccomened lights. Saw a fenix cl20 and some streamlights but prices are too high for me. Also saw this on amazon

fenixgear.com is liquidating their stock. I bought a Fenix CL20 for $20.

I don’t see Fenix-gear liquidating anything other than that. I paid 59 dollars for a CL25R some time ago, and that’s what Fenix is “liquidating” it for right now.

That’s what this reddit post is claiming. I didn’t check anything else because the CL20 was the only Fenix thing I wanted.

Rayovac seems good. Coleman also has some variants.
If you look on ebay or maybe chinese sites you might find good but no-name lanterns at a very cheap price.

I recommend to go for the BLF Ultimate Lantern Project:
New Update section is here
February,08,2022
An update on the LT1, and other projects including the LT1M (mini)
The pandemic has slowed things down quite a bit, including my big move, lifes-change, etc. But i am still dedicated to new progress on this BLF project with Sofirn for future models, advancements, etc.
While it may have been myself who got the project started a few years back, I do not deserve all the credit in this what so ever… I could not have done this alone at all… And with an…

Now there are a lot of different clones to that model in aliexpress, some as low as 5$.
I was planning to buy those fenix clones but their light color temperature was cool which I don’t like.
