Cree 3xAA Lantern @ Bunnings 50% off - $7.50 AUD (Aus only)

Picked up one of these while walking through bunnings today, got it home and tried it out and I’m pretty happy with it for the price. I appears a lot brighter than 100 lumens as its about as bright as my 180 lumen 4AA lantern.

It has 3 Duracell batteries included with a plastic tab locking them out, the “beam” pattern is very smooth and doesn’t have any artifacts. The black plastic seems to be ABS and feels durable, the clear plastic feels a little fragile though. The whole thing is held together with philips head screws which would make it easily moddable if desired.

$7.50 well spent I think, I may buy a few more for family members if they have any left next time I can get there.

Thanks for the mini review ezarc. I noticed this the other day but at the dearer price. I’ll have to have a look and see if there on special here.

Thanks mate, looks good. ill have to check them out!

lucky you :_(

Does it have more than one mode? Nevertheless, I may have found a new home for those spare XP-G neutral stars I have lying around.

Time to tell my sister to get some for me.

Its just a single mode but you could probably change the driver easily, I havent taken it apart to look though.
