Lighthouse 600

The Lighthouse 600 by Goal Zero is, for a good reason, among the most common designs on the market for its contemporary twist on the classic camp light!

Its 600-lumen maximum output is surprisingly bright and gives off beautiful and even illumination; if you do not like full brightness, you may change the dial to use just part of the lantern to save energy. In addition to that, the folding legs and integrated carry handles make it simple for storage and setup. Also, there is a front-mounted charging plug, which helps you recharge your smartphone or other electrical devices in a blink.

When it comes to battery recharge through USB or solar energy, the Lighthouse also has a hand crank for mechanical charging—an outstanding and extremely useful feature for journeys that take you far from civilization!

Regarding sizes, Lighthouse 600 seems to be on the bigger and heavier end of the scale - at more than a pound, making it a bit more inconvenient than alternatives such as the LuminAID for wilderness usage. Nevertheless, for vehicle camping - and particularly if you already possess another Goal Zero solar pane - the Lighthouse is still an incredibly competent and well-equipped option for isolated excursions!
