I had one of those. The brightness adjusting is infuriating in my opinion. It’s so slow and barely visible, you need to turn the knob for ages to get a difference. I traded it for the one from olight and loved it ever since.

I have one as well, and it’s a great lantern. It’s incredibly durable, I’ve had mine hanging outside for a year in all kinds of weather without any issues. I mostly use the warm light, but the tint mix is decent too.
I totally agree with LuckyLuke162 about the knob, though, it’s pretty annoying. You have to turn it very slowly for it to register, if you turn it too fast, it just doesn’t catch what’s happening.
Great lantern, terrible knob.
If I were buying again today, I’d definitely pick an Olight. Having a lantern that can survive the weather is great, but having a UI that actually responds is just as important.😋

I used to have one. I wasn’t so lucky as the other guys who posted, because I had to force my knob to lean to one side in order to get it to ever engage to change brightness. After it got water-soaked and died, I just gave up on it.
