For the lazy camper: Remote Controlled Lantern

October 19, 2006 by in Gadgets with 2 Comments

When I was in the scouts, camping was all about roughing it, and getting away from modern life. We had campfires, and tents.

Then I read this. Coleman developed a lantern that operates with remote from up to 30 feet away and has a runtime of up to 23 hours. The remote controlled lantern also features a 7-watt fluorescent U-tube for a brighter, whiter light. The pocket-sized wireless remote uses 2 AAA-batteries and the lantern sells for just $25.99.

Well, I guess it is designed for the geeks that NEED to be connected when they camp. You know the people with their trailers, and satellite phones.

    I think rich people should leave the RV in their driveway, and let the rest of us camp the REAL way.

    Why do you need a remote for a lantern? You probably only will need to turn it off one time, that being when you go to sleep.

    Yeah when I was in the scouts as well, camping was all about roughing it, just like you said. I guess the advantage of this will be for using in places you cant have a fire. Like for example a lot of Southern California is high fire risk, and its pretty difficult to find a place where you are allowed to do a fire.

    Hi, really like your site. Just got a question, does anybody know where I can buy software called Mototools 6 from?
    It’s used for unlocking Motorola phones with the IMEI, and I really need it, as I don’t have a cable to link my phone to my PC.
    Please help! Thanks in advance for any help.
