Lantern

This was my second attempt in creating a custom lantern. After trying to mod a lantern I quickly realized there were many flaws in the off the shelf product. I upped the power of the light using an XHP70 LED, and added a large reflector on the bottom to ensure the correct spread of the light. Now this lantern can sufficiently light up a room and is great for out-door use. With the addition of four 18650 cells this light has a 4 hour battery life, and I used a TP4056 to charge the light. Although I have made lots of progress here, there are many adjustments to make for the next version, including: LCD panel with battery power deployment and fully adjustable brightness, brighter LEDs, and longer battery life.
