This $30 solar-powered camping lantern doubles as a power bank

Imagine you’re out camping in the middle of nowhere, it’s night time, and your phone runs out of battery — but instead of panicking, all you do is plug your phone into the lantern lighting up your tent.

That’s exactly what this camping lantern power bank combo can do for just $30.49 on Amazon, a smooth 29% discount off its usual price.

Camping lanterns are becoming more fun these days, and this one is no exception. Not only does this lantern provide enough light to guide you at night, but it also includes a 4,400mAh power bank within.

The lantern is an aesthetic surprise, too, as it splits to reveal two large solar panels that rapidly recharges itself during the day. Then, at night, you can light up your campsite until morning without issues. Don’t want to wait? You can also recharge the lantern via USB-C cable.

Note that the power bank capacity isn’t massive — 4,400mAh is barely enough to fully charge one phone, so you could still plunge yourself into darkness for the rest of the night if you aren’t careful. But given that it restores itself with sunlight, it’s hard to complain.

This camping light has a touch-controlled power button that toggles the light on and off, but also supports long-pressing to adjust brightness between 60 to 280 lumens.

Bring extra convenience to your next camping trip with this solar-powered lantern with built-in power bank, currently going for just $30.49 on Amazon. Never say no to more battery life!
