Brunton Glorb LED XB Lantern

Item #BRU0183 | 0 in Stock
4 Star Rating

Great little lantern, perfect for tents

By Backcountry.com Employee August 12, 2009

This thing is small, and fits in the palm of my enormous hand. That is misleading because I have yet, other than professional basketball players, to meet someone with larger hands. For the size though, it gives off great light, perfect for inside a large tent, or midnight runs to the loo. I did think it is a little pricey, so it lost a star. However, it is durable, which I don't think a $2 Walmart lantern can claim.

Write your comment here...We haven't had any problems with our WalMart versions. They came as a 3pack for a fraction of the price of the Glorb. I wasn't impressed with the Glorb, since it's also plastic, and the geared feet felt very poorly engineered and unreliable for a $30 light. Ours forgo the gimmicky pop out feet for a slightly flared bottom, making it stable as is. Same metal Loop on top, and nice battery carriages, so we can pop the 4 AAs out for storage, but keep them together. Great little lights.
