It’s nice to be able to find stuff in your tent at night, so having a tent or camp light to hand is a bonus. I am a big fan of gear that can do more than just one job because it means I can use the little space I have far more efficiently.
The ML6 doesn’t just shed light, it is also a power bank for my phone. Its glare-free light can be set between 20 and 750 lumens and, depending upon how much illumination you need, the battery will last between 4 and 70 hours.
There are several settings: Low Power (soft lighting), Boost (very bright), Blink (flashing), SOS, and Strobe—each function is available in either white or red, the latter being particularly useful if you don’t want to attract mosquitos or other unwelcome guests.
As you would expect from an outdoor lamp, the ML6 is water and dust resistant, robust, measures 17.8 x 3.7 cm and weighs a mere 175 g. Thanks to its luminous base, you don’t have to search long when you wake up in the middle of the night.
Easily operated with one hand, the on/off switch also indicates the battery status. The ML6 is just as happy being hung by the integrated hook or standing on the table. Not only is the base magnetic, allowing it to be attached to most metallic surfaces, but there is a second hook for you to hang it upside down for indirect light inside the tent.
The ML6 is one more Ledlenser product that has proven itself on a number of trips this year.
