Light Up Your Campsite with the Devos LightRanger 2000
By Dana Rebmann 
Fun-filled days in the great outdoors days don’t need to end when the sun goes down. For those seeking dependable illumination with tons of options, the telescoping
warrants a closer look. This device has quickly become an indispensable tool in my outdoor kit; I can’t imagine camping or overlanding without it.
Light Up The Night
The most notable attribute is its output — a robust 2000 lumens. During a recent camping excursion in Northern California, the LightRanger 2000 provided more than enough light for the entire campsite, significantly simplifying setup and settling in after sunset.
Featuring an extendable mast and easy-to-use tripod, the LED light extends to a whopping 10 feet tall, dispersing light in a way traditional hand-held lanterns can’t. (Ground stakes, for use in windy conditions, conveniently store in the tripod feet.) According to Devos, the light covers an 80-foot diameter area; I didn’t pull out a tape measure, but you get the idea.
The LightRanger 2000 also has a built-in amber light option that helps lure bugs away from camp as well as a red light option for stargazing enthusiasts.
Those willing to add another app to their phone, (It’s free.) can control the rechargeable light from a distance; the ability to turn the light on or off as well as adjust a number of other settings from the comfort of your
, or even better, your tent, is downright handy.
I also used the
and
adapter which allowed for a convenient s’mores assembly point and nicely illuminated late-night bathroom runs, respectively.
Lasting up to 45 hours, the battery life is notable. The included 67-watt lithium-ion (Li-ion) battery can also be used to charge other devices.
Not Just For Camping
I’m a big fan of products that do double duty. Even if you’re not a camper, you’ll find a plethora of uses for the Devos LightRanger 2000 such as neighborhood block parties, a garage work light, and a welcome light for those unexpected moments when the power goes out at home.
Cost for the
is $249.99 on the Devos website. The price includes the rechargeable lantern, adjustable pole and tripod base, carry case, 30-watt AC wall adapter, and USB-C charging cord. The Devos LightRanger 2000 comes with a one-year warranty.
