Balmuda has a fancy take on the traditional lantern light, but does it make a handheld light better?
The lantern from Balmuda wants to be noticed. It's not flashy or assuming, but it is attention-grabbing in an understated way. Its design is sophisticated enough to fit in the most meticulously crafted living spaces, but from the online images, it's still believable that it's made for the outdoors and will be useful on camping trips.
The middle, amber lighting hue, setting creates a warm glow and will extend battery life for as long as two days.I also turned the light to full brightness with a full charge and it did last longer than the advertised three hours. It made it about 3.5 hours of run time before turning off. If you turn the light to a lower brightness setting, it is supposed to last around 50 hours.
While Balmuda's Lantern is very delightful to use to light your surroundings, there are two aspects of it that I think are unfortunate. The first is the choice to use a Micro USB port for charging instead of USB-C. The second is not having rubber feet/nubs on the bottom. This second one might only be noticeable for people using this light inside, the first time they put it down on a smooth surface.
Balmuda's expensive Lantern gets nearly everything else right, including the ability to remove the battery for responsible recycling, but swings and misses on the charging port.Is the kind of port on The Lantern a reason not to buy it? Probably not. Having a USB-C port on it would have just made it that much more pleasant to use.
