For many, many years, I used either a white gas or propane lantern in front of my tent. I tested this 350 last weekend, and found it to be plenty bright to use. Clipped it to a tree branch just above and in front of the tent and found it provided plenty of light for my table and cooking area. ALSO: It used very little power from my Yeti 150.
I have several lanterns, mini quad sets, lighthouses, the Torch 250 and a couple of the Spot USB Flashlights and like this very much. It will provide a very bright focused light and complement the other Goal Zero lights quite nicely.
the LEDs are fine but the stalk becomes feeble very quickly. I barely used my light on a keyboard and soon it was sagging down further and further. Now it rests on the keyboard instead of illuminating from above.
I use this with my laptop that does not have a back-lite keyboard. when plugged into the usb port its not long enough to lay down on top of the F-keys. The bendable arm needs to be longer so the light bar can be centered onto of the F-keys. The picture they post is not practical because it blocks the monitor. I like that it is compact to pack and flexible and no battery needed.
I bought one of these years ago and have zero regrets. I use it with my laptop when I don't want to turn on the overhead light that would disturb my wife while she's trying to rest. I highly recommend it!
