Lumens for the humans!

I got this bad boy in Ultra White and love it. It has proven to be a good fast & light backpacking utensil as well as a great family/car camping piece (changing diapers in the lowest light setting-no problemo). There's no way I'd take the Apollo anywhere with me which would require walking past 30 feet to your fully amenitied car camping station to set it on the picnic table. But the Orbit can go with you up the ridge and to the summit, taking up little room, staying out of the way and weighing very little ( under 5 oz.) in your backpack. The two-piece top hook, lets you hook it on various types of loops in various tents so it fits anywhere. The dimming feature is accomplished by holding down the button going dimmer or brighter, you know it's at its dimmest/brightest when it blinks at you. It can illuminate my entire two man tent above my expectations, I bet it could hold it's own in a six man as well.
