The NITECORE Lantern series has been growing lately with the addition of the LR12 and LA30. With a focus on compact, high performance 360° lighting you can that won’t weigh you down, our LED lanterns are perfect for camping, emergencies, auto repair and household chores. With so many choices, we’re breaking down why you should add a NITECORE lantern to your gear and highlight our favorites in the series.
Three Advantages of NITECORE Lanterns
- Portability — NITECORE lanterns are small. Really small. Compared to a standard propane lantern, these lanterns are practically non-existent which means you can take them everywhere. Camping, fishing, boating, hiking, caving — you name it. All of our lanterns fit nicely in your pocket or gear pack for lighting anytime, any place.
- Durability — Constructed from highly durable polycarbonate materials, NITECORE lanterns are designed to withstand the rigors of outdoor use. No glass parts to worry about breaking here.
- Output — NITECORE lanterns take you to the edge of LED lighting technology to deliver some of the brightest outputs on the market to easily outshine traditional lanterns.
