Pad Lifestyle International designers nestle next to accessories in a chic setting Coleman Two-Way Panel Light & LED

A rugged flashlight with both panel and torch functionality.

We’ve all had those torch-between-theteeth moments when attempting to do fiddly jobs in poorly lit campsites, at the roadside and in garden sheds.

A magnetic back panel lets you attach the light to any metal surface but also works should you need to hang it from a hook – or the nearest tree branch. The two-in-one design enables use as a panel light to illuminate a chosen area or as a torch for directional light.

It features Coleman’s nifty battery lock system which allows the power circuit to be disengaged when not in use. This helps preserve battery life and reduces corrosion.

The 200 lumens LED can illuminate an area of up to 14 metres for 20 hours when in panel mode and up to 65m for 100 hours as a torch. It is lightweight (135g) yet durable with a tough exterior shield that can withstand a 12-metre drop. The device is IPX4 rated, which means it is resistant to water.

The rectangle panel light design works when hanging or attached to a stationary surface but lacks comfort when holding the torch by hand.

Those who are wont to pottering in spaces without an electrical supply such as sheds and garages. It’s also handy to leave in your car as it can be useful when dealing with roadside problems.

You are content to take a stab in the dark when the power goes out.
