fwiw the Sofirn LT1S lantern, is on sale for $20.37 (before tax), complete with battery.
Here is a review, which says there is NoPWM (I have my doubts… but zeroair usually knows what he is talking about)
edited thanks to James_C who found an even lower price than this listing… fwiw, if you go here first and claim the $2 coupon and put the light in your cart, you can then go to the link in the first paragraph, choose add to cart, and the price will go down, while keeping the coupon active… (and without adding a second lantern)
And then I did an R9 CRI test w my Opple 4, as well as a PWM test (flicker index and modulation depth). Im super happy with the CRI and the lack of deep modulation (PWM is 100% modulation, here the output only dips less than 4%)
