Allsop Glow Harvest Moon Portable LED Lantern Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Glow Harvest Moon Lantern and what makes it unique?
This lantern is a 12″ diameter globe-style LED light that can be used indoors or outdoors. It features a durable polyethylene shell, rechargeable internal battery, and a remote for selecting among multiple colors and lighting modes. It’s designed to serve as both ambient décor and functional lighting for patios, poolside, camping or indoor use.
What are its key specifications (size, battery life, colors, modes)?
The Harvest Moon model measures approximately 12″ H × 12″ W. It offers **16 LED color options** and **5 lighting modes** (such as static, fade, cycle, etc.). The built-in rechargeable battery provides roughly **8-10 hours** of illumination on a full charge (depending on mode/brightness). It’s rated for outdoor use, made of durable construction suitable for wet conditions (e.g., IP67/68 in some references).
How do I charge and operate the lantern?
Before first use, ensure the battery is fully charged via the included wall adapter or USB (depending on model). Set the switch to “On,” then use the included remote to choose a color or mode. For outdoors, place the lantern under or near the area you want illuminated. The device is portable, so you can move it easily for gatherings, parties or indoor ambiance.
Is it truly weather-resistant / suitable for outdoor use year-round?
Yes — the product is designed for both indoor and outdoor use, and many listings cite an IP67 or IP68 rating for water resistance. That said, while it handles rain and damp conditions, it should not be submerged in water and should be removed or sheltered during severe weather or freezing conditions to protect battery and electronics.
How should I care for and maintain the lantern?
To maintain optimal performance: wipe the exterior with a soft damp cloth (no harsh chemicals), keep the solar/charging port clean and dry, charge it regularly (especially before long outdoor use), and store it indoors during prolonged periods of non-use or extreme conditions. If the battery runtime begins to shorten notably, consider a replacement rechargeable battery.
What should I check before purchasing this lantern?
Verify that you’re okay with the size (roughly 12″ diameter), the color and mode features meet your needs, and you have a convenient charging option (wall or USB). Also consider whether you’ll use it mainly indoors or outdoors — if outdoors, check placement and ensure protection from harsh weather when not in use. Finally, confirm return policy and warranty (Allsop offers 1-year warranty on this series).
