STKR Concepts FLI Telescoping Area Light- 6.5 ft Extension

The media could not be loaded.  Love the versatility of this light. Works great out at camp, and the included remote is a game changer. If you have to get out of your tent in the middle of the night for some reason, you can light up your campsite to see what’s going on before you get out. Also it goes up pretty high, I wish it were just a little bit taller though to keep the bugs further away when it’s on. It packs up nice and small, and recharges pretty quickly. I 100% recommend, I will actually be buying a second myself.

happy to have found this kind of area light already available in the market. portable, flexible, with decent amount of brightness for your need, the remote adds extra versatility too. the price is not too expensive for its kind, i thinkbut.. on our first use of this product we staked it on the ground for stability. everything is OK until we need to pack up, we hold on to the stem and pulled it out but it got disconnected on the base cap (pic on the floor). Be cautious when you stake this, you need to hold on the tripod itself when pulling out.tried to glued it back together but did not last long, then finally decided to add 3 screws around it for stronger connection.customer service of STKR is superb and very helpful with the issue, also valued my comments and told me they will send my feedback to their engineering teamwill consider buying again this product, specially if the concerns below are addressedareas for improvement- stem connection to the base cap on tripod needs to be stronger than just super glue- switch to twist and lock mechanism on the telescopic rod to avoid auto collapse- 1.5hrs of runtime on 100% brightness is i think too short for camping, or add a DC port for external source for longer usage time :)

Buyer beware. Maybe I got a bad egg, but the product is supposed to come with a 4000mAH battery, but when my fully charged light died after only about 10 mins, I needed to check under the hood. Guess what? Someone replaced the 4000 mAH battery with a 500 mAH battery. Biiiiiiig different in capacity. Hopefully this was just a bad egg, and hopefully no one else gets duped like this.But on a separate, the light is surprisingly bright, and I'm very impressed with that. One negative is how flimsy the tripod is. I get it, it's meant to be portable, but lemme tell you...it's VERY flimsy.

So I have had a couple other camp lights, (Devos and Cheap one) this by far is the brightest and the remote puts it over the top absolutely love the light. Now for the bad, On the pro series if you extend it 8 foot even with the stakes in the ground or extended it falls over, mine will not stay fully extended I’ve contacted the company but they don’t reply at all so customer service is garbage. I will buy the Overlander it looks a little more stable but as for the pro version it’s probably great in perfect conditions, but for camping anywhere the ground isn’t perfectly flat not so much. I am building my own stand for the light.Update: Last week went on another adventure with several other overlanders, as we were setting up camp they pulled out the Devos and I pulled out my pro hoping to show off a bit lol, but the pole wouldn’t stay extended, then no matter what I did it wouldn’t stay upright, after a lot of duct tape and frustration it worked for the night. However first thing in the morning I found another camper and just gave it to them. I was going to order the Overlander but due to zero customer service and not liking the build quality I think I’ll just spend the extra 60.00 and get the double Devos Light Rangers with hard case. I did leave two stars because the light is really bright.

Very nice product
