Let there be light in the camper, tent or caravan: a camping lamp for every occasion

1. Light intensity: how bright your lamp needs to be depends, among other things, on whether you're traveling alone or with the entire family. A lamp with 100 lumens is enough to illuminate an area for two people. On the other hand, for a group of 6 to 8 campers, the lamp should have 500 lumens.
   
   
2. Light duration: the answer to how long a camping lamp with a rechargeable battery should shine is: "As long as possible!" For short weekend trips, a burn time of 20 hours is completely sufficient, if you use it every day for 3 to 4 hours.
   
   
3. Weight and size: how large and heavy a camping lamp should be depends primarily on whether you're traveling in a camper or with a bicycle and a tent. If you have enough storage space, the 202-gram weight of an LED camping lamp with rechargeable battery, such as the Ledlenser P7R Signature, is hardly noticeable. But if you're only carrying a backpack, you can save weight with a headlamp, such as the Ledlenser HF4R, which weighs only 72 grams.
   
   
4. Where you plan to use it: if you're only going to use your lamp in your tent, it should definitely be bright, be dimmable and be able to be hung on a hook. On the other hand, a camping lamp with a replaceable or rechargeable battery for outdoor use should be waterproof and dustproof.
   
   
5. Type of power supply: basically, Ledlenser LED camping lamps provide long-lasting illumination, but you will need to change or recharge the batteries at some point. And with our handy powerbanks, you can also fully charge your lamp on the go.

6. Robustness: the best camping lamp does its job for many years. Regardless of whether the camping lamp has a replaceable or a rechargeable battery, it should be resistant to shocks and falls from a height of at least one meter.
   
   
7. Material:: camping lamps with replaceable or rechargeable batteries are usually made of high-strength aluminum alloy or shockproof and shatterproof plastic. For example, our bestseller, the aluminum P7R Signature, is especially robust. The hard-anodized surface of this model is not only scratch-resistant and drop-proof, it also has an IP68 water and dust-proof rating.
   
   
8. Additional functions: make sure your camping lamp has features like an SOS mode light signal, which you can use to call attention to yourself in an emergency. Other practical and convenient features are a USB port for charging the battery or a dimming function to adjust the brightness.
   
   
9. Environmental compatibility: if you love camping and nature, make sure that the camping lamp and batteries are made of recyclable, pollutant-free materials – ideally under manufacturing conditions that don't negatively impact people and nature.

ML4 warm light

If you are looking for a camping lantern that is extremely compact, then our ML4 is the right choice for you. The small lantern is just 9.7 centimetres high and, with its 71 grams, is ideal for situations where you don't want to carry a lot. Despite its low weight, its battery lasts up to 45 hours on the lowest setting. If you don't have the opportunity to recharge it afterwards, you can also replace it with a conventional AA battery.

P7R Signature

The powerful P7R Signature is suitable for many purposes. On the campsite, it impresses with its long battery life of up to 90 hours and its additional red light, which helps to maintain night vision. With high IP protection, it defies dust and water (IP68). Alternatively, there is also the P6R Signature, which is not quite as bright but also has a red light.

HF4R Signature

The HF4R Signature is perfectly adequate if you just want to find your way around the campsite. In boost mode, the lightweight lamp reaches up to 600 lumens, with which you can easily see 140 meters. Its additional red light function allows you to move around in the dark without blinding your tent neighbors at night. A particularly practical feature is that the lamp's battery is located at the front. If you are lying on your back in the tent and want to read something, there is no battery at the back of your head to get in the way. .

HF6R Signature

If you also want to use your camping headlamp for other outdoor activities, the HF6R Signature gives you a little more power, which pays off when hiking in the dark, for example. The headlamp also features our new Digital Advanced Focus System, which enables an almost infinitely variable transition from homogeneous close-up light to focused high beam light.
