Light for every adventure: VARTA Consumer Batteries launches two new outdoor lanterns

With the new Outdoor Sports Lanterns L10 and L20R, VARTA Consumer Batteries presents two lanterns that are built for real adventures. Whether it’s a multi-day hike, a family camping trip or emergency lighting: both models offer robust technology, impressive run times and a clear solution for reliable lighting.

It’s just after midnight. The children are asleep in the tent, the campfire is slowly dying down, and the flashlight has gone missing somewhere between the sleeping bag and the backpack. Anyone wanting to plan the next stage of their journey or looking for a pack of cards in the tent needs a reliable light. This is exactly where VARTA Consumer comes in: with the new Outdoor Sports Lanterns L10 and L20R, the Ellwangen-based manufacturer presents two lanterns that are essential pieces of modern outdoor equipment for anyone who camps, hikes, spends time outdoors and simply wants to be well prepared. 

From the campsite to the cellar: two lanterns, countless uses

The outdoor market has changed. Camping is no longer a niche activity; for many families, couples and adventure seekers, it has become an integral part of the year. Weekend getaways to the countryside, van trips across Europe or spontaneous overnight stays in cabins are now an indispensable part of life for many. All of this places new demands on equipment. Lighting is part of this: not just any spot light, but reliable, long-lasting light with a wide beam. 

With the Outdoor Lantern L10 and the Outdoor Lantern L20R, VARTA Consumer offers two devices specifically designed to meet the needs of active outdoor enthusiasts. They combine durable technology with well-thought-out features and provide light when you need it. 

L10: The endurance classic for long nights 

The VARTA Outdoor Lantern L10 is the battery-powered version and is designed for maximum endurance. With a light output of 170 lumens and a range of up to 10 metres, it reliably illuminates tents, vestibules and open spaces. What sets it apart is its impressive runtime of up to 70 hours on four standard AA batteries. So if you’re heading out into the countryside for the weekend, you no longer need to worry about lighting. Two light modes (High and Low) allow you to adjust the setting to suit the situation: bright enough for cooking and reading maps, dim enough not to wake those who are sleeping. The price: €14.99 RRP. 

L20R: Power and comfort for demanding rides

If you’re looking for something more, go for the VARTA Outdoor Lantern L20R. The rechargeable version delivers 420 lumens and a beam distance of 16 metres. This makes it ideal for larger tents, outdoor cooking or a dark garage. The built-in USB-C charging function makes it a sustainable choice that can be recharged. Three light modes (High, Mid, Low) provide additional flexibility. The 44-hour runtime is easily sufficient for most multi-day trips. The price: €29.99 RRP.

Both lanterns share a common design principle: they are designed for real-world situations and can withstand changeable outdoor conditions. Specifically, they are shock-resistant from a drop height of up to one metre, have an IP54 rating (dust and splash-proof) and feature rubber elements that ensure a secure grip even with wet hands. An integrated hook allows the lantern to be hung from tent poles, branches or in the boot of a car.  

Designed for demanding applications 

The new VARTA Outdoor Lanterns are the perfect companion for families on overnight camping trips and provide pleasant, reliable lighting on road trips. They have been specifically designed for a wide audience: they are neither too bulky for a backpack nor too basic for family camping. Weighing just 362 grams (L10) and 513 grams (L20R) respectively, and with their compact dimensions, both lanterns are easy to take with you. 

This creates light that is more than just brightness: it provides guidance, safety and atmosphere, both indoors and outdoors. Or, as VARTA puts it: Empowering Independence. 

The VARTA Outdoor Lanterns L10 and L20R are now available in sports and outdoor shops, DIY stores, selected supermarkets and online retailers.
