UCO Arka Rechargeable Lantern

Today I want to talk about a really cool LED lantern made by UCO. Not only does this lantern double as a lantern and a flashlight, it also charges your electronics via a USB port. I have never seen this feature on any lantern I've seen. It is a really cool feature to include on a lantern; however, the only problem I would envision would be how long the battery could charge a cell phone and also function as a lantern. UCO claims this lantern can pump out a very bright 180 lumens and also charge a cell phone up to 2 times. If this is true, this is a really cool product I am definitely going to purchase. Here are some additional features of this lantern:

  • High-quality Cree XP-G R3 LED provides adjustable brightness up to 180lumens? to illuminate your campsite
  • Slide the frosted globe up to diffuse the light for use as a lantern or slide it down for use as a flashlight; throws a beam up to 75m (250 ft.) when used as a flashlight
  • Built-in, rechargeable 4AH lithium-ion battery doubles as a charging station for your USB devices, such as a phone, camera, flashlight or GPS (sold separately)
  • Recharge the lantern battery using the included 100 - 240V charger and USB cable; recharge your devices using their respective USB cables
  • 3 red LEDs? can be used to help preserve your night vision or signal for help
  • Glow-in-the-dark on/off switch makes the lantern simple to find and operate at night
  • LED indicator light displays the battery level and the charging status
  • Use the convenient split ring on top to easily hang the lantern inside your tent
  • Legs fold out to make the lantern more stable on the ground or picnic table
  • UCO Akra LED rechargeable lantern has an IPX6? water-resistance rating to ensure operation in inclement weather
