I decided that this would be a good test

But i think that my solar ipx7 light is better for car camping since its light is more gentle and ambient just like i thought it would be and with car camping weight is not really much of an issue and this lamp would be better than a larger plastic or glass gas lantern since it takes up way less space which is still a factor when youre packing up your vehicle with huge coolers regular sized sleeping bags stoves etc plus when youre car camping you can bring along a heavy and bulky mobile charger to recharge the ipx rather than depending on the solar charging capability or you could just plug it into the cigarette usb charger in your car and the mpowerd light doesnt have usb charging capability

I have to admit that i like the mpowerd light slightly better but the price for the ipx7 is wonderful and i dont regret buying this ipx7 one bit hence the 5 star rating im giving it
