Not a bad lantern for camping, but not the best speaker. Multiple lighting options are offered as well as no light at all and only using this as a speaker. A USB charging cord is included, and there is a little red light on the back which indicates if the lantern has finished charging. A very small metal handle is attached on the bottom to allow this to be hung up, but no lanyard or hanging cord is included. It's lightweight with good battery life. You can light the inside of a tent, or use for background music outside around a campfire. If you can't make a campfire, just set the light on the flame mode and use one of those sleep apps that has various sounds like rain, wind, etc., and set it on the 'crackling fire' sound. It's not the same as a real campfire, but it does in a pinch! The Bluetooth speaker was very easy to pair. Not only can you stream music, podcasts, audiobooks, and so on, but you can take calls on this speaker as well. Control buttons are on the front bottom of the lantern, as well as the button to let you change between Bluetooth, auxiliary, and TF modes. I like that you can take your own micro-SD card filled with music or whatnot and play it on this speaker without needing to connect with Bluetooth. The speaker is located on the top of the lantern, so sound only comes out through the top and is quite one directional. Speaker quality isn't horrible. You can't adjust any of the levels for tone or base or anything. What you hear is what you get. The controls let you perform the basics like fast forward or rewind, and that's it. To change the lantern light from flickering flame to solid color, just tap the black screen portion of the speaker on top of the light. Between taps it will cycle through various colors like red, blue, green, purple, etc., then go to a slow fade or a fast fade, then to white. A long tap (put your finger on top and hold for a couple of seconds) will shift the light back to the flame setting. A long tap will also adjust the brightness of the light when it's on the colored or white light settings. You can turn the light off by pressing the button on the front bottom of the speaker, or by switching the slide switch on the back. I get why the price is what it is ($30). It's a Bluetooth speaker that is supremely portable with multiple light functions that can also take phone calls, run off battery power, is rechargeable, can connect with auxiliary, or use a SD card to play music. This is an affordable option that allows you to have a speaker (and light) in places where you wouldn't want to take a much more expensive wireless Bluetooth speaker. A great option for kids as well since it provides them with some cool options for a nightlight, a 'fire' for indoor camping, and a decent wireless speaker that if damaged or broken isn't a major financial loss.
