How great it is to receive the coolest things these days! A nifty Coleman CPX 4.5 High Power Mini-Lantern just came in from the mail a few days ago. I was thrilled to get my hands on one of these babies, so was my husband. As a mom who tolerates camping as family must-activity, I firmly agree that one can never go wrong on investing on a good lighting gear for outdoor camping, especially if you are in a big crowd—and/ kids. Coleman CPX 4.5 High Power Mini-Lantern is just the right thing for that.
What’s great about Coleman High Power Mini-Lantern is that it’s CPX compatible which means it can use either Coleman’s long-lasting cell batteries, or the rechargeable cartridges. (CPX is a compatible power-source that can be used on a collection of Coleman camping gears.) It gives portability a new definition with its 4-inch height, light weight feat and high-powered lighting capacity. Campers will definitely find this back-pack- and tent-friendly. It shines up to 80 lumens and 360 degrees of light giving you a great feel and ambiance in and out of the tent.
Being LED-powered, it can last a lifetime—yes, a lifetime! No more bringing extra bulbs during camping for you. Its run time can last up to 10 hours when on high, and 24 hours on low. You can tell when it’s running down low on power through its LED battery meter that has a light that changes color to let you know if it’s time to recharge or change batteries.
It needs no tools for set up. With just a push of a button, you and the family (or camping buddies) can enjoy a well-lit outdoor camping experience. Even my daughter can use it easily and safely because it won’t heat up even if it’s turned on for hours. You don’t even have to worry if you or the kids accidentally drop them because it’s impact resistant up to two meters. Aside from that, it is water resistant, too, so no need to fret if in case you get caught by an unexpected rain, or you happen to get it wet. As for us, since I am expecting a baby soon and can’t go camping this year (too bad!), we had our daughter try it at our backyard. She used it to do some backyard exploring and had a blast! It was nice to see her get excited with little adventure like that one, and I didn’t have to worry if the lantern will dim down, heat up or get broken if she drops it. It was just a plain fun time for her with her dad.
Its brightness and run time can even be adjusted to your desire through its settings, unlike the old days when camp lights were either too bright or dim. Gone are the days when you use the same luminosity for every lighting need. It has a glow cap and a recessed wire bail so you can turn it upside down if you need an over-head lighting. It could be then great for dinner time, brightening the table while the family enjoys hot plates. Who says you can’t have a fancy dinner during camping?
It’s very affordable for the features it has and the lifelong service it could be for the family’s camping needs. You get to have a close-to-home camping venture without the expense of sacrificing comfort and packing problems. With Coleman CPX 4.5 High Power Mini-Lantern, camping meets convenience and luxury for the whole family or camp goers.

I am going to have to get some of these for when we go camping and for emergencies. We seem to go through so many flashlights and batteries with the ones we have bought in the past. Thanks for the review… it made me decide this is the one to go for 🙂
