Member Reviews for UCO UCO Aluminium Candle Lantern Plus LED
UCO UCO Aluminium Candle Lantern Plus LED
The best of both worlds in one device. The soft, warm flicker of a candle flame evokes that classic campsite magic. But when the situation calls for a safe and practical light source, 21st century technology wins every time. This battery-powered, bright LED flashlight fits conveniently into the base of the Original UCO candle lantern, and functions while attached to the lantern or when used independently.

Very dangerous product
Date:June 26, 2012
I thought it was a great product until I had 2 serious incidents.
I reached across the picnic table and received a third degree burn on my arm when I touched the metal top. Being enclosed, it is not as obvious as an open flame. Wrecked the vacation.
On another trip, we hung it in the tent. I accidentally bumped it and splattered hot wax on my wife's face, who was lying down, just missing her eyes. I got hot wax on my arm and a slight burn.
I do not recommend this product at all. I threw it away, rather than give to someone else to get burned.
A great idea, but the Black Diamond Orbit LED light is much better and safer.

Too useful not to have
Date:September 11, 2009
A useful thing to have a couple of around at home, and I consider it a must have when exploring. On cold damp nights I leave one on in the tent to take the edge off the cold and it's surprising how effective it is. I'm planning to get the reflector for one of them to see the difference.
Pros: Lightweight, Simple, Good Value, Reliable

I absolutely love this. The soft flicker of the candle is welcoming, and gives off that comforting feeling.The candle is actually quite bright, and the citronella candle keep the bugs away while enjoying dinner at dusk. The LED is very useful, from taking a leak at night to trying find something in your pack at night. It is not exactly the smallest or lightest candle/ flashlight combo on the market, so I can't give it a 5.
Pros: Soft candle, Durable, Long battery life, Bright, Stable, Spare Bulb
Cons: Bulky
