Hi all,

I'm heading out camping next weekend and am in the market for a new lantern. We're currently using Primus Gas ones that are great but thinking about switching over to a battery powered one for a few years while the kids are small. More of a safety issue than anything. Will definitely go back to gas when they're a bit older.
I know battery powered ones have many drawbacks, just wondering if anyone has any suggestions or types they have tried and liked. I'm looking at a 300 lumens 4D battery lantern by Outdoor Connection (aussie brand) and it looks pretty good...

The other options is something like a fluoro light connected to the car battery... We have a 25x20 foot tarp set up with a spreader bar I could mount it to...

Any suggestions would be welcome.

Cheers!

- Ben
