[@chief10GQ]

Heck yeah! This would've come in handy last night at work. I work with the railroad and use the lanterns they give us which are fine but big and definitely not packable. This can easily fit in my safety vest pocket. Thanks for the review and demo.

[@TjPhysicist]

I'm new to flashlights, just wanted one I could use for some light camping, around the house etc. You are certainly right in that this is impossible to beat in the current market. There is absolutely nothing that comes close to the 10k MaH battery and the lantern combo as well as the warm light. The constant on red light - which this has, is something that is CRUCIAL too. Many lanterns/flashlights and combo devices ignore this or don't have it at all, OR only have it at a very low setting, which is very strange to me. Any device that is meant to be used at night needs a red light mode (NOT a mode with a red filter but actual red LED because that does matter). It's not just about astrophotography, or bugs but red light is best for night time viewing, red lighting ensures best viewing in the dark (deep red light ensure the chemical required for rods to work rhodopsin do not break down, with other wavelengths they are higher energy so tend to break down rhodopsin - thus poorer night vision, this is why military, army, navy etc use red light during night) AND it does not trigger cones as much as well as not triggering our circadian rhythm. The 2lumen and 10lumen for the red lights SOUNDED very low but once my initial testing, at least to my eyes, even the 2lumen when hung high enough illumanates quite a large area and the 10lumen definitely seems MORE than good enough for a whole group to eat dinner under. Blue light "wakes you up", red light does not. There are two improvements i would ask of a next version of this though, both have to do with being more environmentally friendly 1. Swappable batteries. 2. using non plastic materials - this one is part about the environment but also about more study materials. Perhaps a "pro" version that is more expensive but uses metal and glass instead of plastic? (the design may have to change a bit with glass).

[@barkingspider2007]

Great Video! The only issue with the Nitcore LR70 is the light defuisser being "Glued" in place. This makes the battery not easy to replace if it fails. For me, that is a deal breaker. You might talk with the folks in charge of the design and make the battery user-replaceable.

[@1stfloorguy59]

Yeah that whole going green is out the window for alot of company's now. Just built to sht the bed now

[@lancewatanabe2733]

Same. This would have been an instant buy if the batteries were user-replaceable and I don't even need a lantern/flashlight. This would make an excellent emergency item and its longevity as a PD battery pack would be ensured with the replaceable batteries as well. It is still a fantastic item but right now it's a consumable that I want. Replaceable batteries would make it a TOOL than I NEED.

[@adventureswithfrodo2721]

Good reason to block your channel

[@marcreyes3077]

yea same to me i will still buy lr 60 not this lr 70

[@bernard93]

Seriously great products. been binge watching your explanation and everything makes so much sense when you put it into perspectives. I'm part of a production team and lanterns would be so useful in lighting up the work spaces. Been using a TIPSE on a cap to do that. but a lantern would make much more sense!

[@renielmostiero5108]

Another great innovation from Nitecore. I'm praying to have that lantern since we always experience blackouts like every hour every day and it sucks in the dark! I hope I can have one so no more darkness. Cheers!

[@damz8786]

It's ideal for camping trips, hiking, or any outdoor activities where i need portable lighting. The power bank feature is useful for charging your devices on the go. Overall, it's a convenient and multifunctional tool for staying prepared in different outdoor scenarios.

[@ClausArdal]

This light would be amazing when I take wildlife pictures. When flashlight function is perfect for navigating to my hide. The lantern function is perfect for using in the hide while I set up my equipment. And the Power bank is really usefull if I need to charge my phone or some accessories while being in the hide. I love that you also made it QC compatible. Great work!!

[@lusqwerty]

Another innovative lighting tool from nitecore. A 360° lighting is a great addition to anyone who works and need a professional illumination tool. Unlike other lanterns out there this lantern-flashlight is a great tool. Ordinary flashlight just do one thing illuminate a spot. Some of them tail stand but their beam is focused upwards. You need a separate diffuser means you need to carry an accessories which is clumbersome. In building maintenance where I work now there are many nooks and cranies that not reached by the building's lighting system. This can come in handy as you can set it in any flat surface and instantly get a 360° lighting. No more eye strain because most flashlight have unbalanced hotspot and spill which is so weak your eye gets easily tired. Flood light or lantern type lighting provides a soft white and balanced light perfect for almost any indoor or even outdoor applicationm

[@robtorok3935]

This is such a great idea. I usually use one of my Nitecore flashlights by pointing it up to the ceiling to illuminate the area, but outside, your need to resort to point at a specific subject.

[@TwitchRadio]

Lots of choices... Going to have to look at reviews for each of these to see what one would work best for me. But I would use this in combination with my candle lantern or if I'm going car camping, I could take this and still have my oil lamp... I like oil lamps and can't throw lanterns in the cold weather only... But I could use one of these in the summer.. Possibly add the smaller one to my EDC sling... choices choices😂.. Thanks for your time and the video as always man 😎✌️

[@JethroLampitt]

I would love the chance to use these new lantern lights! I go caving a lot in Wales and think they would be very good at lighting up some of the larger caverns when I need to take photos. Thanks for the amazing informative videos! Keep it up 👍

[@stephenschroeder6567]

Excellent review and presentation. I do not have a need for such a light, but it is so good, I think I will get one anyway! Thank you sir!

[@GregBrecker]

I work as a railroad engineer. This would be great for inspecting my locomotives, in lantern mode. Also would be good for lighting up a cab, or controls when the overhead is out. My conductor would love it for returning to a dark pick up at night. Also good for signaling a van for yard pick up.😉😊

[@rebornitsybitsy7515]

Just ordered one for me and 3 more for the family, love nitecore products. Here in south east asia we get quite a few electrical powercuts so its piece of mind that i can rely on the LR70 for emergency back up lighting.

[@tremblz2202]

Great review! This is the swiss army knife of lights. As an avid camper and outdoorsman, this light would be perfect for area illumination, spot lighting when needed, an emergency beacon., and it can recharge phones, too! Great design!

[@your_adventure]

Great fan of nitecore products…very reliable and essential. I got few nitcore collections …this New LR 70 looks very usable and multifunctional..it would be good with my adventure hike and camping.. I could get rid of few other travel accessories with this product.. well done..

[@chickendave9499]

Would definitely use it when camping. Great for in the shed & perfect for blackouts with the powerbank function.

I was like a child looking at a toy shop when I saw this channel. good job guys.

I work as a handymen and i work i different pleaces so this would be really good to have wile working on people's houses and helping them.

[@JaypeePabelico]

This is a must have for me when I go overlanding. Versatility is the key! Can be used as a camping light or flashlight!

[@jackpmeadows]

Great video...as always. I would love to have at least one of these to use at work on my job as a nightwatchman. I am currently using the Nitecore EDC27 (bought at your recommendation) and it is doing a wonderful job but I think that the LR70 would be more versatile in my use case. Thanks.

[@telada]

I have bought the LR50 and 60 and now I guess I will have to buy this one too given the massive improvements. Very happy with the nitecore lanterns.

[@user-ju3nz2ni3s]

Is lr 60 good

[@dangermouse957]

Thanks for the review Just got one and it's awesome

[@Obsy]

Interesting one, useful in many situation. It would be nice if the black edge were magnetic to stick it when there is no possibility to hang it...

[@Arcron]

Good thing I don't buy things that are first of their kind. Can't wait to see how this gets a 2x improvement in the next release.

[@allisonren3260]

magnet, glow in the dark and removable battery would be nice, considering how the new molicel P45B obliterates everything else and they're definitely not using that.

[@22plepte.ltd.96]

Big disappointment for me is the cells are build-in...and one reason I'm thinking twice about buying this Imagine the cells being so close to the emitters and the heat build-up that it's constable being exposed to. Heat will kill the batteries' life span super quick, and once the cells are dead or half dead, it will be gone

[@nelistheron83]

​@@allisonren3260and possibly the option to only use 1 of the 3 sides at a time.

[@allisonren3260]

@@22plepte.ltd.96 Can't you brute force it and open it up? Expensive experiment but it could be done

[@SpyderWebbX]

@@22plepte.ltd.96Then just buy another set of batteries and replace them.

[@risqanon4542]

My daughter and I go camping every 3 months and this would have great use for us.

[@Nickotothemax]

Would be great when camping with the kids. The lanterns we have don't really cut it, but the LR70 would be an awesome addition to the camping kit.

[@AsyrafAkira]

Non removable battery kinda cons for me but the 10h runtime kinda interest me. Good for sar and patrol around camping site.

[@straightouttabroce9462]

This is very nice would love to use it during camping with the family doing stuff outside and during power outages this would be very useful also to have in the car in case od emergency very versatile light...❤

[@KumaPather]

From walking the dog on a dark trail at night. This would be my number one use for this lantern where I live there can be some dark trails witl critters, coyotes and pitfalls. This lantern will help anyone who lives in rural areas and needs to take the pup for walk at night

[@noxnox2721]

ill use it for my camping trips, such a big improvement from my older nitecore lanterns

[@madsmix]

Solid product! Even more solid review!

[@NitecoreSG]

Glad you liked it!

[@00xhelox00]

Awesome product from nitecore yet again!! Really hoping to win this lantern as in my industry I'm require to visit small confined spaces and canal similar to what you shown in your video. These area have low to zero visibility and we often rely on torch light to inspect the area and carry out our work. With this 3in1 lantern it will definitely reduce to load we need to carry when we go out in the field!

[@mortenborg]

Looks great, but don't like the path of non-replaceable batteries NiteCore are taking - just more e-waste when batteries die. Will buy something else. (It will be illegal in the EU from 2027 when user replaceable batteries will be mandatory.)

[@christiangallant3197]

Wow nice lantern flashlight, I love all My Nitecore flashlights. I would use this in hiking trips and off-the-grid camping.

[@turnoff7572]

Im already excited to see what's next gen is going to perform like, this would come in so handy for camping+ emergency juice on go is great

[@daniellawrence9229]

I've been on a journey of self-discovery and I believe this lantern will help me finally achieve the ultimate goal of "enLIGHTenment" 😊

[@BrandCJC]

That would really be handy here in South Africa with our loadshedding (power utility shutting down power due to insufficient generation). I would so much love to buy one but at the current exchange rate, makes it nearly impossible...

[@youwebz]

If I was fortunate enough to win one, I will be using it to do aircraft walk arounds / inspections, then switch to lantern mode for cockpit setup. I will be buying one nonetheless as it’s amazing how three roles have been combined into one. Excellent

[@seekyeefirstforsound]

Would love to have this for my dad cause he's suffering from (nyctalopia) night blindness cause of his Cataracts. He's going for operation soon... But cause our house is small, he's sleeping with our son in the living room... so at night, he will turn on all the lights and our son will keep waking up... If he doesn't, he will trip onto things and fall or make a lot of noise... I believe it's easier the size and ease of use will help him very much at night especially cause kids and babies are less prone to being disturbed by it, less likely for their circadian rhythm to be affected.

[@markbell6755]

Great product. I would like to use it around the house and when camping.

[@alantch1]

Great all-rounder light for camping or travelling or anywhere around the house / car / store room etc.

[@TheYoyojamer]

I’m a Singaporean living and camping in Australia definitely good here in the outback where there is mainly moonlight and little street light in the bush

[@deinsav]

Great flashlight, should be in everyone’s home in case of power outage. I have Tini2 and I use it daily, nitecore products are very reliable

[@ypwong99]

I use my lantern light for camping trips, helping me navigate through the darkness in the woods, and at home, it's handy during power outages, providing light in those moments.

[@damienakatubbyable]

I use my Sofirn IF23 as a bedside lamp, I'd probably replace it with this lantern if I had one! Like the design and features of the Nitecore, worry that the hanging handle looked a bit frail tho.

[@mikebasco2766]

This gonna be useful in my daily technical jobs. Praying for a free one. Keep up the insightful video content on your products.

[@nickprague1481]

This would be used for illuminating my bathroom in power outages. I already have a NWL on my refrigerator for lighting up the kitchen.

[@dishdoc361]

[@dadx5262]

This would be a great new light for our family camping adventures. Even the backyard ones! 😁😁

[@alexanderwoodward4016]

Love the lamp and the video. Thank you. One question… is there a lockout mode?

Interesting new lantern (or more an hybrid one)! (I've also seen a Wuben X3 :))

[@haunter51662]

I was just going to order this fantastic light until I realized you can't replace the batteries. I learned early on as a "flashaholic" never purchase a light that doesn't have replaceable batteries. If this light becomes user replaceable batteries, I'll be the first on line to purchase.

[@22plepte.ltd.96]

Useful improvements that this light could and should have... 1. Removable cells so you can swap them out for better/higher capacity lithium cells, or when the original ones are dead 2. The ability to shut off one side of the lantern so the lights will not shine directly into your eyes when you have them lantern placed at eye level, as well as extending the overall run time 3. A magnet base? 4. A flickering candle mode will be superb to add mood to a room (personal preference) 5. Variable temperature LED...often time warmer lights (2700K) are preferable to the cooler ones. That said, High CRI 4000K is a good compromise All in all, this is a great concept in a well designed light package...but already i can see their next iteration will be so much better 😊

[@west-Co_exploration]

I have the LR 60 and it is a good lantern, but I find myself not using it that much because I have to carry two lights in order to have a flashlight at a distance. This is a great upgrade. I would love to win it

[@pktam71]

My new job scope sometimes need to go rooftop with network team due to network switch issue in the switch room , if sky is dark not easy to walk safely , the LR70 is the good choice as have many functions of my need 👍🏻

[@toddkanhai3164]

I would use the lantern for camping with the family or in the backyard around the fire. Also as backup light foe power outage.

[@Anos.Voldigoad]

Never had a lantern for once in my life so I'll use this in my house while i work at night and in my car when I'm finding lost items at night. Lantern would definitely change my perception of mobile lightings

[@paulb36utube]

You could put the light on a fishing pole or extender and use it as a great area light.

[@sierranaira1392]

As a night photographer, this flashlight is very useful for my needs.

[@jdearing46]

I would use it for my granddaughter as a night light for her room.She could use for when she needs a soft light at night or a brighter light in case the power goes out. 😊

[@matt3403]

It would be far better with glow in the dark paint/photoluminescent with a timed blink to charge the photoluminescence then switch off this would increase the torch probably 4 days in complete dark like a cave. Now thats a winner and game changer for me.

[@22plepte.ltd.96]

How will the heat from the lantern affect the performance & longevity of the lithium batteries?

[@noodlenguyen]

good review, i want one!

[@VinnyUnion]

Yep. I'm purchasing this multi purpose lantern as my first ever flashlight. Personally, i do not have the financial means to buy several flashlights, so i'll have to make a sensible purchase and thus, a multi purpose lantern is the most bang for the buck. Urgh. I'll just have to get some courage and will buy it in a few minutes, or half an hour π-π But that power bank capability is just awesome. You can always charge it a little bit and make a phone call if it's at 0%. Can be a lifesaver even tbh.

[@neilv6754]

This light looks amazing but 70 dollars is too much for me. I'm disabled and I spend most of my time in a 150 square foot room. I live in Maine and my power goes out often. This would light the whole room. Great explanation of the lantern. Thanks.

[@kazhual]

really covers all the bases

Is the quality good on the switches. I bought the edc 27 3k lumen flat light from nitcore and the switch is jacked after about a month. Let my son use it and he is 12. I don't think he was hard on it either. But all the olights I've had I can let anyone use them and not worry about it cuz it won't mess up no matter what . Love the idea of the nitecore and run time.

I can’t imagine why that would cost $111. LEDs are very cheap batteries are not that much. Thank you again.
