Coleman Tent Light

This tent light worked great. Very easy to use and gave off just enough light to light up my tent.

When my son and his family camp out they read to the boys at night. This light has worked well as an overhead light and is bright enough to read by. They place it right above the door. One person can do it and it's protected under the tent fly. A great product!

The light connects easily and securely to the tent and it's easy to take off. It's easy to use and nice to have a push button light in the tent. Its only drawback is that it's not all that bright.

Coleman makes good products, but this is more of a novelty item. The magnet feature is cool as you can virtually locate the magnet anywhere on your tent surface (easier to do with two people), by placing the magnet bar on the outside and light inside. The Xenon bulb puts out enough light to see what you are doing in your tent (I have a small two-man Eureka tent), but it definitely is not a reading light source. The four "AA" batteries that it needs will last for a good long weekend, but probably not a week. Also, keep in mind that it weighs about ten ounces with batteries if you are backpacking. However, it's a lot safer than a candle or a hot Coleman lantern. I would suggest a small pen-light would suffice for rough backpacking.

Great light!! The magnet is VERY strong. We have a Columbian Gazebo on our patio. It's pretty large, the light is bright enough to make anything inside visible. Not too bright, everyone commented how nice it is. Perfect for our tent too!! For ten bucks it's a great deal!!
