Lanterns

Fenix LED lanterns for camp and home, 10 to 2000 lumens and USB-rechargeable — soft, even light for a whole tent, table, or room. Shipped from Mississauga by an official Canadian Fenix distributor, with full Canadian warranty service.

Soft, even light for a whole space

Where a flashlight or headlamp throws a beam, a lantern fills a space with diffuse light — a tent, a picnic table, a room during an outage — without glare in anyone's eyes. It is the light you set down and forget about. Our note on why a lantern belongs at home covers the case for keeping one charged.

Camp and trip use

Packable Fenix lanterns weigh little and run for hours on a low, comfortable setting, so one charge covers a weekend. Many double as a power bank to top up a phone. Most campers keep a lantern for camp plus a headlamp for the trail — see outdoor lights and why campers carry more than one light.

Power outages at home

During a storm or grid outage, a lantern lights a room far more comfortably than a flashlight propped on end, and a rechargeable model with a power-bank port keeps phones alive too. Pair it with the rest of an emergency kit so the light is charged and findable before you need it.

Frequently asked questions

Why choose a lantern over a flashlight?

A lantern spreads soft light across a whole area instead of a focused beam, which is better for lighting a tent, a table, or a room. It sits hands-free and does not blind people across from you. Most kits include both a lantern and a beam light.

How many lumens do I need for a tent or a room?

For a tent or a small room, 100 to 300 lumens is comfortable and runs a long time. Larger rooms or a campsite table are better at 400 to 1000 lumens. Lanterns are usually run low, so high modes are for short bursts rather than all night.

Are Fenix lanterns rechargeable, and can they charge a phone?

Most are USB-rechargeable, and several include a power-bank output that can top up a phone or other small device — useful during an outage or a long trip away from power.

Are they good for power outages?

Yes. A lantern is one of the most practical lights for an outage because it lights a whole room and stands on its own. Keep it charged as part of an emergency kit so it is ready when the power drops.

Are the lanterns weather-resistant for camping?

Yes. Fenix camping lanterns are built to shrug off rain and dust; the exact IP rating is listed on each product page. Full submersion is a flashlight feature rather than a lantern one, so check the rating if you expect heavy water exposure.
