Product Description I own two Coleman Max Family Size LED Lanterns (purchased at Wal-Mart) that emit 175 lumens each. In comparison, this Coleman Twin-LED Lantern purchased through Amazon.com emits more than twice as much light (390 lumens), and its light is more diffused, whereas the other two have shadows cast by the four obstructive metal supports, plus the light they emit is more glaring because it isn't diffused. My other two lanterns also have only high and low settings while this one has a variable settings dial.
Anyway, I liked this unit so much that I purchased another. I think it is the best one of its kind available and that you will like it, too. The only disadvantage that I can so far determine is that the lack of the four lid supports may cause loss of some of the protection qualities of the clear, unobstructed plastic protective outer casing against scratches.

The Coleman Twin LED Lantern reinvents Coleman's classic and instantly-recognizable camping lantern, with the convenience and quality of LED lighting. Unlike kerosene lanterns with mantles that can only be used one time, the Coleman Twin LED Lantern features two super-bright, Cree Xlamp XR-E LED bulbs that provide thousands of hours of continuous, on and off use. The LED bulbs shed an impressive 390 lumens of light on the high setting, and can be adjusted down to any setting with a rotary dimmer switch. Unlike kerosene lamps, the Twin LED doesn't require messy flammables. The lantern runs for up to 150 hours on Low and 15 hours on High using a set of eight D-cell batteries (not included). The lantern's durable housing is weather-resistant, making this lantern a solid choice for outdoor use. Built to last, the Twin LED Lantern carries a five-year limited warranty from Coleman.
