Overnight camping trips demand a high-quality camping lantern to brighten the area you’ll be staying in. You want a lantern that provides enough illumination that you won’t be tripping over things when moving around. You want a lantern that’s powerful enough so you can cook and read in the dark and can also withstand possible damage from drops or accidental hits. 

With so many lantern manufacturers to choose from, you may feel overwhelmed and unsure of what lantern is best. How can you know what lantern you need?

14 Factors to Consider in a Camping Lantern 

  • Alkaline or Rechargeable Batteries? Do you want batteries you need to change out continually, or do you want rechargeable batteries instead?
  • Camping Trip – Will you be backpacking, car camping or family camping?
  • Casing – How strong of a case are you looking for?
  • Dimmer or Set Lighting – Do you need a light that provides ambient lighting? Do you want a lantern that can be used for many reasons?
  • Insect Repellant – Will the lantern attract bugs or repel them?
  • Lighting Area – Do you need a small amount of space to be lightened up, or do you want a 360-degree light area?
  • Manual Crank – Do you want a lantern you have to crank to generate the power?
  • Lumens – How much brightness do you need?
  • MAH Battery Capacity – How long do you want the battery to last you?
  • Portable or Static – Do you desire a lantern that can be ported from one place to another or remain in place?
  • Power Bank – Will your power bank be sufficient enough to handle charging other electronics such as mobile phones, tablets, etc.? 
  • Purpose – What purpose will the lantern be used for – inside or outside the tent, or both?
  • Solar-Powered – Will you be able to charge the internal batteries?
  • Weight Size – Will you be doing a lot of walking or will you arrive at a campsite and stay there mainly?

Best Choice for Different Types of Camping Lanterns

What Types of Lanterns can be Used for Camping?

  • Battery Operated Camping Lanterns
  • Candle Camping Lanterns
  • Fuel-burning Camping Lanterns
  • Rechargeable Camping Lanterns
  • Solar-powered Camping Lanterns

What are the most common kinds of lanterns that you can choose from? They are battery-powered, rechargeable, manual crank, solar-powered, and fuel-dependent lanterns. Some of the more popular models currently on the market include:

Battery-Powered Lanterns (Lepro)

Lepro offers a battery-operated lantern that is lightweight and portable, whether you’re just camping or going hiking. It comes with a metal handle on top and a hook for the bottom so that it can be hung however you need it. With an IPX4 water-resistance rating, it can be used any time it rains or snow. It uses 3 D alkaline batteries and can last up to 12 hours with 1,000-lumen settings.

This Lepro product gives users four lighting modes – flashing, full brightness, warm white and white – to meet any lighting requirement you could have. It can be used in emergencies or when you’re just camping or hiking.

Candle Lanterns (GSI)

Candle lanterns are known to produce a plethora of heat since they use candles, which is why you must be particularly careful when using them. They are also known to produce a soft, romantic, relaxing light. However, they are considered an outdated source of light power. 

GSI Outdoors Blue Candle stands at 8 inches tall and uses a candle that you light to give you illumination. GSI has a two-inch hanging loop so that you can place it up on a pole or branch. GSI designed its candle lantern with enamelware to combine practicality and aesthetics into one product. Due to its robust design, it can easily withstand drops and falls. 

Gas Camping Lanterns (Balight)

The Balight Mini Gas Lantern is comprised of corrosion-resistant stainless steel material with an aluminum alloy and heat-resistant glass that ensures its durability and won’t shatter. Balight designed it with a unique high-energy piezoelectric ignition system, ensuring it will light every time you need it to. There is also a hanging chain on the lamp so that you can make it as long or short as you need. 

The lantern can reach a 60lux brightness, which is plenty of light when needed. 

Rechargeable Lanterns (LE)

LE came up with another LED camping lantern, but this time it’s a rechargeable lantern that can also be used as a detachable flashlight. It’s ideal for any situation, such as hiking, fishing, emergencies, hurricanes, etc. It also comes with a car charger and USB cable. 

The LED Rechargeable Camping Lantern is built with a 1,800mAh lithium battery that is chargeable through a USB port. However, if you have no access to charging abilities, it needs 3 D batteries to work.

Most people want a lantern that works and has several functions. LE answered the call. This rechargeable lantern includes a built-in compass, detachable flashlights, metal handles, etc. Each flashlight has 200 lumens of light, with a lumen output of 20. The only difference between this product and others is that too much water can keep the product from working correctly or have it quit working altogether. 

Solar-Powered Lantern (Tansoren)

Tansoren designed a versatile rechargeable camping lantern that offers three kinds of power supply methods:

  • Solar power
  • USB cable
  • Batteries (2 AA)

Thanks to the several ways you can charge the device, it’s often regarded as one of the best camping lanterns on the market. If you’re in a remote location where sunlight is an issue, you can use the small built-in power bank to help charge the lantern, phone or other devices. This is certainly ideal for when you don’t have any electrical outlets nearby.

Tansoren designed the solar lantern to be collapsible, ensuring it can fit easily into backpacks. Pull the handle up, and the light comes on. Adjust the level of brightness with a simple push. It really is that simple to use. If used on low power, the lantern can last eight hours. 

Another significant aspect of this lantern? It’s made of military-grade material and is water-resistant.

If you have a garden, installing a light can help brighten the space and keep accidents from occurring because one can see where they are going “in the dark.” Plus, garden torches installed with sensors and programs can send you a warning if an authorized person (or animal) is on the property. 

When you’re out shopping for garden lights, you’ll notice the various designs available. However, they all serve the same purpose – to improve a garden’s beauty at night. The majority of garden lamp manufacturers offer a customization option where you can add colors and change them as you see fit. How can you choose which brand is best for you and your garden with so many choices available? 

If you want to spruce up your garden, consider any one of the five listed below:

Lepro 80W LED Wall Pack Light (Security Lighting)

When it comes to security (safety) lighting, you want the best product to give you the brightest illumination and will light up a large swath of area. Lepro’s 80W LED Wall Pack Light can deter property-destroying animals and potential burglars from doing you and your property harm.

Its power derives from the standard 120-volt current, with easy installation over garages or home eaves, so the light illuminates walkways or the backyard. Although it’s just 80 watts, it’s the equivalent of a 400W MH or 160W HID light fixture and has a 10,000 lumens maximum output with 5000K cool radiant light. The manufacturer recommended installation height is between 12 feet and 17 feet. 

When you want the best outdoor security light for your property, this is one of the best on the market.

GIGALUMI Solar Pathway Light (Path Lighting)

Path lighting can help you safely get from your vehicle to home or from your home to the background while also bringing out the beauty of your walkway. With the GIGALUMI garden lighting system, you get 12 lights that can brighten up a large area of land. On top of that, these lights are powered by the sun, which saves you money on electricity. It takes six hours of sun for the LED bulbs to maintain a maximum charge and work for more than eight hours. 

These lights also have an IP44 waterproof certification, which means they can hold up against snow and severe rainstorms/storms. 

Since they are entirely wireless, you can easily install them along your pathway. 

Lepro Solar LED String Light Bulb (String Lighting)

When you have a large backyard or garden, you need something more than a landscape lighting system and path lights. However, with the Lepro Outdoor Solar LED String Light Bulb, you can easily cover more ground without taking up a lot of space, thanks to its 25 feet of lighting. The solar panel has a built-in light sensor, controlling when the light comes on when it senses the dark is near.

Lepro designed these lights to handle all kinds of weather, meaning they are quite durable and can last for some time. They have an IP65 waterproof, which means they can withstand snow and rain without any damage. 

SMY Recessed LED Deck Lights (Deck Lighting)

When you got a deck, you could install a floodlight to illuminate the area. However, add more charm to it with the SMY recessed LED Deck Lights. These lights can be installed on the deck, allowing you to walk on them without ever feeling them. You can also install them around the deck perimeter, deck stair railings and individual steps of stairs. 

The manufacturer designed the lights so they are more than two inches in diameter and 3/4 –inch step, ensuring they can handle constant foot traffic and weather and still maintain the glow your area needs. 

Globe Electric 44094 Turner Wall Sconce

Wall sconces have an open-bottomed design, meaning their underneath is not covered. They are ideal for high-up places where you want the lighting to shine over a certain area. Semi-flush mount sconces are great for exterior walls with little space left, as the light is affixed to a thin arm attached to a plate. A complete flush mount sconce means the entire fixture is attached to the wall.

What is linear LED high bay light? Where can it be used?

LED linear high bay light is mainly used for indoor lighting in spaces with high ceilings, such as factories, warehouses, garages, and large shopping malls. When the linear LED high bay light is suspended or installed on a ceiling more than 15 feet above the ground, or even as high as 40 feet, it can still provide sufficient illuminance and lumens to meet lighting needs.

While both are LED high bay lights, the biggest difference between linear high bay light and UFO high bay light is that the former is rectangular in shape, which makes it very suitable for warehouse aisles or other long and narrow areas, and there will be no issue of tall shelves interfering with illuminance due to their height. In addition, linear LED high bay lights are very easy to install and can be installed directly onto a ceiling, or suspended with two chains.

Part 1. Buying Linear LED High Bay Light

Part 2. Installing Linear High Bay LED Lights

Part 3. Why Choose LED Linear High Bay Fixtures

Part 1. How to Choose Linear LED High Bay Light

When choosing a linear LED high bay light, aside from its power, the number of lumens and color temperature emitted by the light should also be considered. The light can only produce sufficient illuminance to meet lighting needs if it emits sufficient luminous flux. A lower color temperature means that the light is warmer and resembles an incandescent lamp more. A color temperature of 4,000 Kelvin or higher can help to increase productivity and reduce eye fatigue, making it more suitable for commercial and industrial applications.

350013-NW-US 220W38,000500W5000K90

Part 2. How to Install Linear High Bay LED Lights

There are many ways of installing linear LED high bay lights. You can select the most suitable method according to the conditions of the indoor space.

1. Hanging installation for linear high bay

One method of installation is to suspend the linear LED high bay light using a chain.

Step 1: Disconnect the power supply

To ensure safety, the linear LED high bay light should be installed when the power is disconnected, so the first step is to disconnect the power supply.

how to install linear led high bays

Step 2: Wiring

The next step is wiring. There is a junction box on the back of the light fixture. Loosen the screws to open up the cover and retrieve the wires in the box. Connect the black wire to the live wire, the white wire to the neutral wire, and the green wire to the ground.

Aside from these, there are two dimming wires. If you require dimming in daily use, you can connect the dimmer to the two dimming wires. The purple wire represents dimming up and the gray wire represents dimming down. When not working, you can lower the brightness as appropriate to save on electricity. If you do not require the dimming function, the two wires do not have to be used.

After connecting the wires, pass the wires through the holes in the cover and tighten the screws to close up the cover.

Step 3: Hook up the chain

Retrieve the hooks and chain from the accessories, and pass the chain through the hooks, as shown in the figure below.

Attach the hooks to both sides of the light. Now, the linear high bay can be suspended by lifting the chain.

Step 4: Affix the chain onto the rail

Hang the chain onto the crossbar and adjust the length. Now, the linear LED high bay light is suspended successfully. If there is no crossbar installed on the ceiling prior, it must be first installed before the light can be installed. Aside from this method, you can also choose from other methods of the installation below.

Step 5: Connect to the power supply and adjust lighting

Finally, connect to a power supply and adjust the lighting to start using.

2. 3/4 NPT installation for linear high bay light

To use this installation method, first prepare the U-shaped brackets, steel pipe, and matching 3/4 NPT.

Step 1: Disconnect power supply

As with the above method, the first step before installation is to disconnect the power supply.

Step 2: Install the brackets onto the steel pipe

First, install the steel pipe onto the ceiling to suspend it, and then use 3/4 NPT to attach the U-shaped brackets onto the steel pipe.

Step 3: Affix the light onto the brackets

There are holes on both sides of the light fixture. In this step, affix the linear LED high bay light onto the U-shaped bracket with screws. Now the high bay light is suspended successfully.

Then, refer to Steps 2 above for wiring, powering up, and adjusting, to start using.

3. Pendant Installation for LED high bays

This installation method is similar to the second method but requires two U-shaped brackets.

Step 1: Disconnect power supply

When installing the linear LED high bay light, the most important thing to pay attention to is safety, so it must be installed when the power is disconnected.

Step 2: Mount the U-shaped brackets

Here, the two U-shaped brackets must first be affixed to the ceiling or the suspended crossbar. The distance between the two U-shaped brackets depends on the distance between the holes on both sides of the light.

Step 3: Affix the light fixture

Affix the light fixture to the bottom of the U-shaped brackets with screws.

After tightening the screws, the linear LED high bay light can be suspended. Then, refer to Steps 5 and 6 above for wiring and powering up.

Part 3. Why Choose LED Linear High Bay Fixtures?

Compared with other light fixtures such as metal-halide lamps and high-pressure sodium lamps, linear LED high bay lights have their own advantages. Although LED lights are more expensive than traditional lamps, and the initial investment will be more, this part of the costs can be made up for with the savings on electricity bills, so it is still more cost-effective. Linear LED high bay lights have gradually become the preferred choice for indoor high bay lighting.

  • Energy saving and power saving. Save on more than 60% of electricity bills.
  • Long service life, so there is no need to expend too much time and energy on maintenance and replacement.
  • Low heat production and good safety.

Q: What are UFO LED High Bay Lights?  Where to Use LED Round UFO High Bay Lights?

A: UFO LED high bay lights are LED lights which are shaped like UFOs and mainly used for commercial or industrial lighting, such as warehouses, factories, garage, shopping malls, etc. They can illuminate large areas.

In general, the usage of UFO LED high bay lights depends on the height of ceilings, installation angle, luminous flux and the power of light fixtures, etc. If you mount a 100W UFO LED high bay light in a 10 feet high room, it will feel overpowering because of the excessive brightness. On the other hand, if you mount a regular bedroom LED light in a warehouse over 15 feet or even 40 feet high, you would not get your desired brightness.

Part 1. How to Hang UFO High Bay Light?

Take Lepro UFO LED high bay light as an example, there are 3 ways to mount it depending on the installation conditions.

1. Hook Mount

Step 1. Turning off the power

Before the installation, it’s important to make sure to turn off the power. Do not install when power is still turned on, so as not to get shocked.

Step 2. Wiring

Connect the light’s wire to ac power. The black wire connects to live wire, the white wire connects to the neutral line, and the green wire connects to ground wire. Make sure to not mix the wires to avoid safety hazard.

Step 3. Screwing in the hook hanger

If the ceiling is ready to mount or if the hook is mounted already, UFO high bay light could be mounted directly through the hook. If not, you should drill a hole to mount the hook.

You could find a hook hanger among the accessories. First attach the hook hanger onto the top of the UFO high bay light, then tighten the screws on the side to secure the hanger.

Step 4. Hanging the UFO high bay light

Use the hook hanger to hang the UFO high bay light onto the mounted hook. Install the hook first if there isn’t one already.

Step 5. Connecting the dimmer

If the UFO high bay light you bought has dimming feature, you can see two  extra wires to connect to your dimmer (dimmer not included), so you could adjust the light of the UFO high bay light as needed. The purple wire represents “+” adjustment, the gray wire represents “-“ adjustment. Of course, if you don’t need the dimming feature, you could choose not to use the two wires.

Step 6. Turning on the power

The UFO LED high bay light installs easily. After connecting it to the switch,  you could turn the power back on and it will be ready to use.

2. Ceiling Mount

You can also mount the lights onto the ceiling using a U-shaped bracket. Compared to the above mentioned hoop hanger method, you will need to prepare your own U-shaped bracket. Also you can use this type of frame to adjust the angles. We recommend this method of mounting if you are particular about the lighting angle.

Step 1. Cutting the power

Same as before, the first step is to turn off the power. Do not operation when power is turned on.

Step 2. Connecting Wires

Same connection method as above, and connect to the AC power with the live wire, neutral line and ground wire.

Step 3. Mounting the U-shaped bracket

Mount the U-shaped bracket on both sides of the UFO LED high bay light with screws and make sure the light can be hung with the frame.

Step 4. Hanging the U-shaped bracket

Measure the distance between the two holes on the U-shaped bracket, and mark the ceiling. Drill a small hole on the wall using a drill of the same diameter as the plastic expansion tube. Hammer in the expansion tube, tightened the screws through U-shaped bracket and secure the bracket on the ceiling. The UFO LED high bay light will thus be suspended.

Step 5. Connecting the dimmer

Connect the wires on the light to a dimmer if needed.

Step 6. Adjusting the angle and turn on the power

Adjust the angle of the light via the U-shaped bracket, then connect the switch and turn of the power.

3. 1/2’’ NPT Mount

Apart from the methods above, you could also use a 1/2” NPT to mount the UFO LED high bay light. A steel pipe and brackets are used to hang the light, instead of mounting the bracket directly to the ceiling.

This is a easy way to install. First, secure the bracket onto the light, then unscrew the 1/2” NPT nut, connect the steel pipe and the bracket, tighten the 1/2” NPT nut, so that you can hang the steel pipe up. Afterwards you could follow the steps above to connect the light to AC power, and check the lighting result.

All 3 installation methods are applicable to Lepro UFO LED high bay light. You can choose one according to the actual situation.

Part 2. Why Choose LED UFO High Bay Lights?

With the development of high bay light technology, UFO LED high bay lights have become the best choice for many large-scale industrial or commercial lighting. Compared with traditional lightings like xenon lights or metal-halide lamp, they mainly have the following advantages.

  1. High lighting efficiency and low energy cost. A 100W UFO LED high bay light could replace a 300W HID lamp and save the electricity cost by 66%. A 150W UFO LED high bay light could replace a 450W HID lamp and save the electricity cost by 66%. A 240W UFO LED high bay light could replace a 750W HID lamp and save the electricity cost by 68%.
  2. The light is soft and even with no strobing, which is safe and harmless to eyes.
  3. With an IP65 water and dust resistance and an anti-surge protection system, they can be used in damp places or other harsh environments.
  4. The lights’ temperature remains low because of LED’s low heat emission as well as the aluminum shell’s high heat dissipation efficiency. The lights are softer, and less likely to catch fire because of overheating.
  5. The lights have a long span because the outer shells underwent paint baking treatment. They are anti-oxidation, anti-salt fog, anti-corrosion and anti-rust; there’s no need to change them frequently.
  6. UFO high bay LED lights are green, environment friendly, lead-free and mercury-free. They contain no polluting elements and are safe for the environment.

Part 3. How to Caculate the Numbers of UFO LED High Bay Lights I Need

Normally you need to select lighting with the right power based on the desired illumination of the scene and the height of suspension. In different scenarios, the desired illumination is different, and the relevant parameters it needs are different. It is recommended to check the IES files attached before buying an UFO LED high bay light, and make the calculation with a professional lighting software, such as DIALux, AGI32, etc. When calculation the number of the lights, you need to provide some basic parameters, such as the size of the room, the length, the width, the height, the needed illuminance of the place, etc. Input the IES files to the softwares, and the desired lighting layout will be planned.

Closets are pieces of furniture we use every day. We all know that the space inside a closet is generally enclosed, so that when organizing or looking for clothes, you need sufficient lights. But how do you pick clothes after getting up in the morning without waking up your significant other? You need to add some lights into your wardrobe, and LED strip lights are a good choice. First of all, LED strip lights can be pasted onto the wall of the closet without occupying extra space. They also have low voltage and a high safety profile, enabling indoor use. Besides lighting improvement, a closet with LED strip lights feels more elegant and significantly more attractive. So how do you choose and install LED strip lights in closet? We will discuss this in detail as follows.

How to Install LED Closet Light Strip

The following will talk about how to install LED strip lights to decorate your closet and improve your efficiency in daily organization and selection of clothes.

Step 1: Choose a Suitable LED Closet Light Strip

In terms of color, people prefer white closet strip lights, such as daylight or warm white, depending on the interior decoration or closet style.

As to length, we suggest determining the position of the strip in the closet and measuring the required length beforehand, so that you can choose the most suitable strip among different lengths and avoid waste or insufficiency.

Regarding other functions, we suggest selecting a strip that can adjust brightness depending on the lighting conditions when you open the closet to select clothes, which satisfies different lighting needs.

In addition, some strips are waterproof, which are generally more expensive than non-waterproof ones. If they are only installed in closets, non-waterproof ones will suffice. Of course, if you are installing them in the kitchen or bathroom, we suggest buying waterproof ones.

Step 2: Unwrap the Strip and Paste It Onto the Closet Wall

Open the LED strip lights kit once you receive it, and confirm the strip, the remote control, the controller, and the connector are all in place. Then paste the strip onto your planned position. Because the strip needs to be plugged in and with regard to aesthetics, pay special attention to the end of the strip lights that connects with power supply.

Also, if your strip is too long, cut the strip along the scissors mark. Avoid cutting it askew, or the whole unit of lights will not switch on.

Step 3: Plug in and Turn on the Strip

The last step is connect the strip with the controller through the connector and then plug in the connector. Your LED strip lights will turn on and light the closet. If the strip doesn’t light up when plugged in, check the direction of the connection between the connector and the strip. The lights will not switch on when the direction is in reverse.

PS: Do not plug in while installing the lights. Only plug in when you confirm the installation is in place and correct.

Part 2. How to Choose the Best TV LED Strip Lights

Among all the LED strip lights available on the market, how to find the perfect one for your TV set? The following aspects will help you make the decision.

#1. Multiple Colors Available

If you want to feel like you were watching TV in a movie theater, RGB LED strip lights will probably suit you well. You can set different colors of light for different movie genres. Whether you are watching a romantic movie, a hilarious comedy, or a nail-biting thriller, you can set off a better environment with LED lighting and enjoy a more intact experience.

#2. Adjustable Brightness

This is also a very important feature because adjustable brightness makes it possible to create completely different lighting effects, allowing you to adjust at will.

#3. Proper Length

Before shopping for LED strip lights, it would be best to measure the size of your TV set in advance, so you will be able to determine the right length. If you want strip lights for your 65-inch TV set, the Lepro 6.5ft USB TV LED strip lights mentioned above will be a perfect choice. Besides, this product consists of four individual strip lights of equal length, so you can adjust the positioning of each strip to suit TV sets of different sizes. If you purchase a continuous strip, you can apply it along the edge of your TV and cut off the excessive part (if any) at a “cut” mark.

#4. WIFI Connection Enabled

Smart LED strip lights can be connected to WIFI networks. You can adjust the lighting effect with remote control, a mobile APP, or voice control, while non-smart strip lights are generally adjusted with remote control only. You can decide whether to purchase a smart model based on your own needs. If you have a smart speaker at home or find it easier to operate on a mobile APP, you can go for the more convenient smart models. If you think a remote control is enough for your needs, you can pick the normal strips at lower prices.

#5. USB Connection

Generally, LED strip lights with a USB plug works better with TV sets, as you can plug it directly into the port behind the TV sets without the help of an additional power socket. In addition, you can use a power bank, a computer, a wall-mounted charger, etc. to power the LED strip lights conveniently and safely.
