One lantern in the middle of the table lights a whole room so a household can eat, read, play cards or just sit together without it feeling like an emergency. That is the point of it. No scare tactics, just a calmer evening.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt also works as a camping and garden light, and the speaker means you are not packing a separate one. If you keep an [ER Emergency Backpack] or an ER300 PRO radio ready, this is the natural companion: the radio keeps you informed, the lantern keeps the room usable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBe clear-eyed about the speaker though. Run it loud all night and you will not see 14 hours of light. The published figure is a best case at low brightness with the speaker off or quiet. Treat it as an evening of light and music, not a weekend.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eGetting the most out of it\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKeep it charged.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eStore it topped up and recharge it every few months so it is ready when a storm takes the power out.

In an outage, low light plus the speaker off will get you through the night.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHang it or stand it.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eLight spreads more usefully from above, so use the handle to hang it from a tent loop, a hook or a cupboard door rather than leaving it flat on a table.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePair two for a bigger space.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eTWS links a second unit for stereo, useful in a garden or a larger room.
