Voted 4/5 | If you're counting ounces, this may be considered a luxury item, especially if you are already carrying a headlamp. Also, the battery life is not stellar. However, the BD Orbit lantern is a great lantern for the more casual camper. It works very well overall and is relatively lightweight (4.8 oz). | | Posted Aug 28, 2011 11:32 am |

Hasn't voted | One of the few redundancies in my pack. I have a headlamp, but still can't seem to not bring this little guy. It lights a small tent well and hangs easily. | | Posted Jan 14, 2012 11:54 am |
