Product Description
Don't sit in the dark when you can light up your world. The Coleman 5312-750 Retro Rechargeable Battery-powered Lantern is a full-size, hip solution to illuminate your camp site. The 11-watt fluorescent spiral U-tube provides a bright white light, yet remains cool to the touch.

The Retro lantern is powered by a rechargeable battery that you can recharge from a 120-volt AC outlet or 12-volt DC port (12-volt adapter included) and one charge will run your family-size lantern up to nine hours. The reflector directs light upward and outward providing more efficient lighting. In addition, this lantern has its own built-in night light. This lantern also features an emergency-on circuit that activates during power outages. When it's time to replace the bulb, it's easy with the handy quick-release lever.

THis lantern is fantastic. We looked at many different lanterns and for the price, the quality of this product is amazing. It is sturdy and the charge lasts. Love the night light feature. This is all we need for a perfectly lit camping trip.

Even though I haven't used the Coleman Retro a lot, it works very well plus it is cute. Can't ask for anything more.

Coleman Retro Rechargeable Battery Powered Lantern (Family Size)
This thing looks and works great and puts out plenty of light for catfishing at night off the pier or boat. The nightlight is a convenience addition for small needs. The cover to the nightlight was broken when the lantern arrived, but one call to Coleman customer service fixed the problem for free - a new cover arrived 2 days later. It's a relief to work with companies like Amazon and Coleman who understand what customer service is! Thanks

I purchased this lantern on the basis of the very favorable reviews listed here. It is a heavy lantern, best suited to jobs such as providing light at home during power outages. But the lantern I bought failed to light after the required 18 hour charging period before its initial use. Failed to light after the second 18 hour charging attempt. Failed to light after a 44 hour charging, when, as before, the charger was connected to a wall outlet and the lamp's charging light glowed with a reassuring red color. Yet the main bulb seems to be in good condition. I've owned two Coleman gasoline lanterns for nearly 50 years with hardly any problems. It's repacking the thing and paying shipping charges ($18.00) for a nine pound item to return it to Coleman in Kansas for repairs that's especially irritating. Total cost so far, including Amazon shipping charges, is about $70.00.
