  Product Description
Use the Travellife Penta lantern to create atmosphere in the awning or light up the route to the toilet block. This battery-powered camping lamp runs on four AA batteries and sits comfortably on outdoor tables without taking up excessive space. The compact 17 x 11 x 11 cm design leaves plenty of room for dining and activities, whilst the integrated hanging system means you can suspend it from awning poles when table space is needed.?

The Travellife Penta LED lantern provides pleasant light with two brightness levels and a night mode to prevent glare in the dark. This versatility matters because you don't always need full illumination - the lower setting works well for ambient lighting during evening conversations, whilst the night mode prevents harsh brightness when your eyes have adjusted to darkness. The lantern can be placed stably on any flat surface but can also be hung on the awning for overhead lighting.?

The LED lighting used in this table lantern is energy efficient and operates with four AA batteries, which aren't included. Typical AA-powered LED lanterns deliver between 12 and 35 hours of runtime depending on brightness setting, so you'll want to pack spare batteries for longer trips. AA batteries are readily available at petrol stations and supermarkets, making this a practical choice for caravanners and motorhomers who prefer avoiding rechargeable systems.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long do the batteries last in the Travellife Penta Lantern?
Battery life depends on which brightness setting you use. LED lanterns running on AA batteries typically provide between 12 and 35 hours of continuous use, with longer runtime on the lower brightness setting and night mode. The energy-efficient LED technology draws less current than older bulb designs, meaning you get more hours from each set of batteries. For a typical weekend camping trip using the lantern for a few hours each evening, one set of four AA batteries should suffice.
What is the night mode setting used for on this camping lantern?
Night mode prevents glare in the dark when your eyes have adjusted to low light conditions. This setting is particularly useful for late-night visits to the toilet block, moving around inside your caravan without disturbing others, or providing gentle ambient lighting whilst sitting outside in the awning. The reduced brightness helps preserve your natural night vision and extends battery life compared to the higher brightness settings. Many campers find this mode essential for maintaining comfortable vision after sunset.
Can rechargeable AA batteries be used in the Travellife Penta Lantern?
Yes, the Travellife Penta Lantern works with both disposable alkaline and rechargeable AA batteries. Rechargeable batteries are a cost-effective choice for regular campers as they can be recharged hundreds of times. Keep in mind that rechargeable batteries typically have slightly lower voltage (1.2V versus 1.5V for alkaline) which may result in marginally reduced brightness, but the difference is usually negligible with LED technology. Having a set of pre-charged batteries ready before your trip ensures you have backup power available throughout your camping holiday.
Is the Travellife Penta Lantern suitable for use inside tents?
Yes, this battery-powered LED lantern is safe for tent use because it produces no heat, fumes or flames unlike gas lanterns which should never be used inside enclosed spaces. The compact 17 x 11 x 11 cm size means it fits comfortably inside most tents without taking up excessive floor space, and the hanging capability allows you to suspend it from tent loops for overhead lighting. The stable base also prevents tipping when placed on groundsheets. LED lanterns are the recommended choice for families camping with children as they eliminate fire and fuel storage risks.
How do I switch between the different light modes on this lantern?
The Travellife Penta Lantern features a straightforward control system to cycle through its three lighting modes: high brightness, low brightness and night mode. Most battery lanterns of this type use a single button or switch that you press or toggle multiple times to move through the available settings. The exact operation may vary slightly, but the simple design means you can adjust the lighting without fumbling with complicated controls in the dark. Some lanterns remember your last used setting when switched off, allowing you to return to your preferred brightness level.
What is the light output coverage area of the Penta Lantern?
The Travellife Penta Lantern is designed for close-range illumination and creating atmosphere rather than lighting large areas. Battery-powered LED lanterns of this size typically provide adequate lighting for a small to medium awning space, inside a caravan, or around an immediate seating area. The 360-degree light distribution means it casts light in all directions, making it suitable for ambient lighting and close-up tasks like cooking, reading or playing cards on the outdoor table. For lighting larger camping areas or pitches, you would need multiple lanterns or a higher-powered model.
Is this camping lantern waterproof for outdoor use?
Whilst the product specifications do not list a specific IPX waterproof rating for the Travellife Penta Lantern, most basic camping lanterns of this type are splash-resistant rather than fully waterproof. The lantern should handle light rain and damp conditions when used under awnings or inside tents, but it is not designed for submersion or heavy downpours. If camping in areas with high humidity or near water sources, consider keeping the lantern in a protected location when not in use to prevent moisture ingress into the battery compartment which could affect performance.
Can the Travellife Penta Lantern be hung from caravan awning poles?
Yes, the lantern can be hung from awning poles, tent loops or caravan grab handles using its integrated hanging system. The Travellife Penta features a built-in hook or handle on the top of the unit specifically designed for suspension. Hanging the lantern is particularly useful when you need overhead lighting or want to keep table surfaces clear for dining and activities. The compact dimensions and stable design mean it does not swing excessively in breezy conditions, providing reliable illumination whether lighting the route to the toilet block or creating atmosphere in your awning space.
