Coleman 4-Hour Rechargeable Flashlight
While plugged into the electrical outlet, a small turquiose night light glows, so you can find it in the dark. Once unplugged, it goes out and a tiny red light goes on.
The electrical outlet plug prongs are retractable when not recharging.
My main issue is that the main flashlight will not function until the plug is retracted. This is bad when the power goes out and you're left in the dark because you want a light as fast as possible. You don't want to be feeling around for the plug every time. The tiny red LED light doesn't give much light at all. When the prongs are in, the LED goes out and you grope for the button.
Also, the casing is made of plastic and some people have said that it breaks easily when dropped but, so far, we haven't dropped ours.
Coleman products are dependable and this comes with a five-year warranty.

Coleman is #1. Aces with me. I am slowly trying to get rid of my crap flashlights. This sounds like the replacement I have been dreaming about!
Is this product like alot of rechargeable batteries? After so many charges will the flashlight not charge anymore? Still voted!!
Good review. I already have one and like it very much.
Nice review.
I needed something like this, this weekend when I was sitting in the basement with all the tornado warnings we had and found out my flashlight had dead batteries, voted
Sounds like the Coleman company needs to read your review and fix those minor flaws in the design. Basically, a good idea for outages though. ~voted
Great Work Buddy! WW-V:)
Good review John. i voted because you really pointed out all the little nits with the lantern, but still managed to convey it is a good product.
I like Coleman as a brand, but would this work as a flashlight for an emergency kit? Voted for you!
Interesting. I never seem to have good luck with rechargeable things.
Great review!
Sounds pretty nice. I would like to have one of these. We have about 10 different flashlights and none of them work or ever have batteries. I may invest in this one =o) Voted. Terrific information, thanks!
Good review. V0teD
