Maximum lumens without a runtime beside it tells you nothing · review
The brightest boost in this group and the longest low setting — 1500 lumens for four minutes, 200 hours at the bottom — on a listing that gives its own weight as an ounce and a half.
An LED rechargeable camping lantern with a 5000 mAh battery.
Glocusent states 135 upgraded LEDs delivering a 360-degree beam over about 201 ft², with five dimmable levels; up to 200 hours on low, up to 12 hours at maximum brightness and a full charge in 3.5 hours, with a 1500 LM “Super Bright” mode illuminating for 4 minutes and a Type-C port able to charge a phone; three color modes at 3000 K, 4500 K and 6001 K; a 1501 LM super bright mode and an SOS red strobe; a weight given as “1.5Oz/299g” with IP45 waterproofing; and a 24-month warranty, six certifications, large sunken buttons, a memory function, a top handle and a bottom hook, with the adapter not included.
No chemistry named. No runtime between low and maximum.
Seven times out.
Two hundred and ninety-nine grams is 10.5 ounces, and the shipping weight agrees with the gram figure. An ounce and a half is less than a golf ball.
It matters more than it looks: this is the heaviest single lamp in this group, and the ounce figure would make it the lightest by a factor of thirty.
Three runtimes, which is the most on this shelf.
Low: 200 hours. Maximum: 12 hours. Boost: 1500 lumens for four minutes.
That is the structure this shelf’s introduction asks for — a runtime beside an output — except at the one level this shelf’s buying tip cares about. Five levels, three figures, and the middle three unmeasured.
And 200 hours is only meaningful if the low setting is bright enough to sit under. The output at low is not published; the stablemate in this group publishes its range as 15 to 250 lumens.
Two bullets, two figures.
The second bullet says 1500 LM. The fourth says 1501 LM. One lumen is nothing; two numbers for one mode is a page assembled from two sources.
The lowest coded rating in this group.
Four keeps out wires and most grit. Five is a water jet, not immersion.
The rest of this group: IP68 to 1.5 meters (5 ft), IP67, IPX5, and two listings with no code at all. A lantern in a tent porch is inside what 45 covers; one left out on a table in a downpour is near its edge.
Glocusent’s instructions carry the charging and the ingress rating. Nothing here replaces them, and nothing on this page describes any product as safe.
The American Amazon store was listing it at about $23 at the time of writing.

Two hundred and ninety-nine grams, which is about 10.5 ounces. The fifth bullet reads "lightweight (1.5Oz/299g)" and the two figures are seven times apart; the shipping weight agrees with the gram figure. An ounce and a half is less than a golf ball, which no 135-LED lantern with a 5000 mAh pack could be. It matters because this is the heaviest single lamp in this group, and the ounce figure would make it the lightest by a factor of thirty.
Brightness. The listing publishes 200 hours on low, 12 hours at maximum and four minutes in boost, which is the fullest set of runtimes in this group and still leaves out the middle. This shelf's buying tip asks for the runtime at the middle setting because that is the level an evening uses, and a figure of 200 hours is only meaningful if the low setting is bright enough to sit under. The output at that level is not published — the stablemate in this group publishes its range as 15 to 250 lumens, which is the sort of figure this one needs.
Splashing water from any direction, and dust larger than a millimeter. The first digit is the solids digit and 4 keeps out wires and most grit; the second is the water digit and 5 is a jet rather than immersion. It is the lowest coded rating in this group — the others are IP68 to 1.5 meters (5 ft), IP67, IPX5, and two listings with no code at all. A lantern hanging inside a tent porch will be fine; one left out in a downpour on a table is nearer the limit of what 45 describes.
Close prices, same category: comparable camping gear. We keep only the specifications all of them publish, because a column with gaps compares nothing.

Amazon reports what buyers took in the month before this page was last checked: at least 3,000.
The figure is a floor, rounded by Amazon, and read through Keepa — it says what buyers picked, not what a maker claims.
Specifications: the manufacturer sheet for camping and hiking gear and the matching Amazon product page. Prices and availability: Keepa. Every figure on this page names its source.
1800 lm claimed · 46 LEDs, 4 soft white and 42 daylight · 3 × D cells · no runtime
The highest output claim in this group at 1800 lumens, from forty-six LEDs on three D cells — and the only lantern here with no runtime, no color temperature and no ingress code.
Best for: A storm kit where cells are stored separately and brightness is the only requirement
≈ $30
60 lm · zoomable lantern or torch · 0.19 lb · removable hook · two lamps
The cheapest listing in this group and the only one that unscrews into a torch — sixty lumens, two lamps, and no runtime published at any level.
Best for: A glovebox or a kit bag, where the lamp has to be two things and cost almost nothing
≈ $10
Rechargeable OR 3 × AA · collapsible COB · 3 magnets on the base · two lamps
The only lantern in this group that takes either a charge or three AA cells — two lamps, a collapsible body and three magnets on the base, with no lumen figure anywhere.
Best for: A lamp that has to work when there is no socket and no charge left
≈ $30
