Compact 2-in-1 Lantern Flashlight

It's a lantern! It's a flashlight! It's ... both! The NITECORE LR12 gives you the power of a compact everyday flashlight with the utility of a retractable diffusor to instantly convert your light into a pocket-sized lantern. A CREE XP-L HD V6 LED emits up to 1000 lumens output with up to 182 yards of throw which is plenty of light for household tasks, searching & inspecting and all your other EDC uses. Only a twist away is the retractable diffusor that turns your output into soft, 360° ambient lighting you can use for camping and emergency backup. At 4.18" in length and 2.77oz, the LR12 can be carried comfortably, even in your pocket!

Adjustable Output with a Twist

With four total brightness outputs and beacon mode, you'll have the right light you need for any job. The LR12 uses an intuitive twist control to turn the light on and off and adjust output. Simply tighten the tail cap completely to turn the light on and loosen it to turn off. Repeating this action within 2 seconds will cycle the light through ultralow-low-mid-high and beacon outputs. The LR12 uses 1x 18650 or 2x CR123A batteries to operate and can run for up to 900 hours on the lowest brightness.

Hands-Free Options

Equipped with a magnetic tail cap, metal hanging loop and lanyard, the LR12 gives you plenty of ways to secure and position your light. Whether you're sticking the lantern under the hood of your car or suspending it from a tree branch, an IPX8 water proof rating and 1m impact resistance will keep the light safe in tough conditions.

5 of 5 feels great, almost there March 27, 2022
Reviewer: Damon from WashiWashington dcngton, DC United States  
This is a little bit nicer as a lantern than flashlight. There are two controls that operate it: there is a magnetic cap area that has to be turned rapidly to activate the light. So when the light is not activated, the battery door is slightly unscrewed. A few quick tightend/loosen/tighten cycles through the 3 power levels. Then there is another screw knob on the light. Turning this one ejects a plastic tube, lipstick style. I use this attached to loops on my gear so that I have a lantern hanging from my chest. When metal is available, I can use the strong magnet to attach it as a work light.

5 of 5 Turned into my go-to multipurpose light February 23, 2022
Reviewer: J from WY United States  
Wanted this solely for a secondary light for backpacking and having a “sit and forget lantern.” It now also pulls double duty working under my vehicle, with the magnetic cap and diffuser keeping the light where I need it hands free.  Looking down the road this light will save me a ton of money since I no longer will have to get married and have a kid in order to have someone to hold the flashlight for me.
