Black Diamond Orbit Lantern

If a glow from above inspires you to seek wild places, pocket the Orbit without hesitation.  Use the clever dual-ring clip to suspend the 105-lumen frosted globe when seeing fine details is crucial (ala map reading).  Dim as needed to conserve battery power, releasing Orbit from vertical duty to serve as a sensible 50-lumen flashlight around camp.  In Chile, Orbit and the larger Voyager set the course for adventure; small packing, easy operation and steady bases characterized both rugged models.  Wise travelers keep Orbit close even when primary lighting comes from a headlamp; venturing into the great Out There is smarter when you’ve got enlightened company to back you up.  Use these rechargeables locally, employing alkaline cells when outlets are miles behind.
