Original Candle Lantern Powder

I recently bought my first candle lantern, and I can tell you I will certainly be buying more. It takes quite a bit for me to absolutely rave about a product, so hopefully this review will be the motive you need to check this product out.First, the design is ingenious and simple at the same time. The quality is solid and doesn't feel cheap to me, so I am comfortable taking this out in rugged environments and hiking/backpacking if I make sure I take care of it (glass components, thin metal, etc.). The spring loaded design for the candle container works well to keep the candle burning evenly and consistently, though I will say you are better off using the regular white candles than the natural beeswax candle for a more even burn. These lights new away in a super compact manner, so thy don't take up too much space in a pack or storage. The single candle lantern gives quite a bit of light in total darkness, and I feel like they are ideal for a tent, an electrical outage in a house, camping in the woods without tents, or really any kind of emergency light source. Secondly, they are just plain cool. In a world full of battery-powered devices and flashlight, it is so cool to have a compact old school candle lantern that will burn for a long time. The candle burn times vary and are not always consistent with the UCO claims, but they last a long time. GREAT LANTERN - don't hesitate to buy!

I've purchased about 6 of these now. Gifted all but the ones my wife and I use.She has the powder blue one, I have this dark green one. It looks great - although I wish I had gotten the other green one instead.These little candle lanterns are awesome, they even put off a very tiny amount of heat. If you get the 3 candle version, you could keep your soup warm or coffee warm on top of it if you use a tin cup like I do.Just go right ahead and buy one. It's not ultralight, but it's lighter than a flashlight or a larger sized rechargeable lantern. The candles you can get for these can burn up to 8hrs or so, which is a lot less light time than a rechargeable lantern, so... there's that. I dunno, ya kinda gotta decipher how ya wanna use it. Be it for backpacking or just sittin around camp. I use it to doodle or write in my tent at night. Gives off just enough light.Ohhh - keeping these boogers clean is kinda difficult. The wax gets everywhere. That'd be the only complaint I have about it.Use the beeswax candles. The white ones aren't all that safe to use indoors.Enjoy, folks!

Great product. Takes the regular nine hour candles. I order the bees wax candle for this works great. It collapses down to small compact form. Great function for in home, cabin or tent. Its pretty new so not sure how durable over time it will be. Has a hook so it can be hung up.

As per the standard, UCO has been putting out quality outdoor equipment for some time now. This lantern is no different.Being collapsible protects the glass and saves space. Disassembly is simple and cleaning is a breeze. Candle soot wipes right off. Unfortunately, the candles designed for this lantern are pretty expensive. Nothing a couple videos can't solve, youll be making your own!The candle definitely is much brighter than without the lantern, as well as burns much more even and protected from the elements.As always, another great product I would highly recommend to any outdoor enthusiasts!

I love to read while I’m camping. This little candle lantern plus the light of the stars is perfect for me to read when my tent vestibule is open. You can also quickly see it and find your way back to camp when you’re going away to water the Lilly’s. It’s small, looks cool, and it’s easy to use. Butt to clean but I like it more than I hate cleaning it.

Great product ,Great service , Great price !

I have used an early model for years. It is Ideal for winter camping and was lifesaving in Yellowstone when our miss-planned XC Skii trip through the east entrance put us in knee-deep snow. Exhausted in sub-zero temperatures, our two lamps kept our bivwack warm enough to survive the night. I used one throughout Wyoming, Montana, Idaho, Nevada, Utah, and West Virginia.I do not go hiking without it!

I love this product. I purchased them to have for an emergency. I love that it is small and easy to use.
