Re: Paul Kim's PK-PR1
I wouldn't call it infinite because after the click to on it starts at what I'd guess to be about 20 lumens or so.
But from low to high can be tailored to your needs.
I went to bed with thoughts of an automobile related issue on my mind along with thoughts of a medical issue my wife faces. Neither are potentially life threatening but being a fixer of sorts my mind was pondering things.
At about 1am my brain turned back on. What's a flashlight junky to do? Go play with the new lantern that's what. This being my first LED lantern ever, and it being a PK invention I set about using my pondering mode to play around with it.
Using the large sized Yankee Candle I set about mimicing a lights out scenario. How many Yankee jar candles equal various outputs of this thing?
I'm not a tint snob, but did compare the glow to that of a candle in a glass vessel. Very similar light is emitted by the two with the PK light being surprisingly easy on the eyes.
On low it equaled about the same room light as 3 Yankee candles. I had 5 total going and at about 1/3 on was what the lantern put out.
The shield is really useful. By starting at the bottom and moving up instead of top down allows the light to become a reading lamp or total area lighter. In reading lamp setting you can tailor it to provide enough light to read by without being annoyed by the light output itself.
I forgot to mention this one came with a 2' cord. USB on one end and micro USB on the other.
More size reference, speaking of jar candles
