Goal Zero Lighthouse Mini Lantern
Typical Price: $40
We love the Goal Zero Lighthouse Mini. It's a dimmable lantern that can put out up to 210 lumens at 3500k and run for over 500 hours in its lowest setting.
It has a USB charging port for your other electronics and is powered on the 18650 rechargeable battery like the Micro.
No directional lamp, but if you already have a good flashlight or headlamp you're using for that purpose than this is a very good choice.
